Have You Been to the Altar?

from Enjoying the Journey · host Scott Pauley

(Exodus 38:1-2) The brazen altar is a picture of Christ’s substitutionary work on the cross. The altar is full of symbolism: the wood as Christ’s body and the brass as God’s judgment. The bound sacrifice, the horns of the altar, and the fire from heaven that consumed the offering point to Jesus who bore our sin and God’s wrath on the cross, declaring the work of redemption finished and all-sufficient for salvation.
