Leviticus 6: 24-30
6:24 And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying,
6:25 Speak to Aaron and his sons, and say to them, This is the law of the atoning sacrifice: in the place where the burnt offering is slaughtered, the sin offering shall be slaughtered before the LORD; it is a most holy thing.
6:26 The priest who offers it for sin will eat it; it shall be eaten in a holy place, in the court of the tabernacle of meeting.
6:27 All that toucheth his flesh shall be sanctified; and if it spreads its blood on the garment, you will wash whatever it falls on, in a holy place.
6:28 And the earthen vessel in which it was boiled shall be broken; and if it is cooked in a bronze vessel, it will be scrubbed and washed with water.
6:29 Every male among the priests shall eat it; it is a most holy thing.
6:30 But no offering shall be eaten whose blood goes into the tabernacle of the congregation to make atonement in the sanctuary; the fire will be burned.
Jesus gave his life on the cross taking the sins of humanity. He offered himself as a holy offering before God. Christians have been redeemed by the precious blood of Jesus Christ and justified by him. The atoning sacrifice is holy. The sin offering is slaughtered before Jehovah. The priest eats it in the holy place, in the atrium of the tabernacle. The only ones you can eat from the atoning offering are the priests, sons of Aaron, set apart and sanctified by God for the special ministry that God entrusts to them. If the blood splashes on the garment, it should be washed in the holy place. Blood symbolizes life and blood stains imply polluting holiness. The Christian to honor the precious blood of Jesus leading a holy and pure life.
Do I feel honored and grateful to Jesus for spilling His blood to redeem me from sin? How can I transmit the power of Jesus' precious blood to others?
The offering that the believer presents to God is holy, apart from the unclean things of the world. Filth can not coexist with holiness. If the priest boils the meat is a clay pot, it must be broken, since the fat or the smell of the holocaust can stick to the mud and, by putting another food in the pot, they mix contaminating the holy offering of God with things filthy of this world. If the meat has been cooked in a bronze vessel, it can be "flushed and washed with water" for later use, since the bronze does not have absorption priorities and the waste or fat of the holocaust can be completely eliminated from the container. This statute aims to preserve the sanctity of the holocausts. As a chosen people, we Christians should offer to God a sanctified life, apart from the world.
Have I disparaged or condemned the unbelievers for feeling superior to them? What are the unclean things that still belong to me?
