TODAY'S BIBLE TWEET

 

BIBLE TEXT: “If his offering be a burnt sacrifice of the herd, let him offer a male without blemish: he shall offer it of his own voluntary will at the door of the tabernacle of the congregation before the Lord.” (Leviticus 1:3)

 

BIBLE TWEET: If our worship is to be acceptable to the Lord, we must wholly and freely offer Him our best, as is symbolized here in the burnt offering, which had to be the best of one’s flock or herd and freely given to be completely consumed on the altar of the tabernacle.

 

BIBLE TAKEAWAY: Not only did burnt offerings have to be without blemish or defect to atone for the sins of defective sinners, but also to symbolize the sinless Christ, who was to come as the unblemished Lamb of God to take away the sin of the world. (John 1:29; 1 Peter 1:18-20)
