Getting Close to God: Leviticus | Why Sacrifice Matters
from Resurrection City Church - St. Paul Minnesota · host Resurrection City Church
The Old Testament sacrificial system can be confusing if you don't understand the meaning behind the rituals. In this sermon, Pastor Julie explains what's going on in the biggest sacrifice ritual: The Day of Atonement found in Leviticus 16. This sacrifice points ahead to the ultimate sacrifice that Jesus made on the cross to pave the way for all of us to be in right relationship with God again. Even though we don't need the sacrificial system anymore because of Christ, we can still find modern-day practices such as prayer, communion, and baptism that help remind us of Jesus's death for us.
