Bring Your Blood Before the Lord.[The Sin Offering]Leviticus 4:1-35;5:1-13When Jesus died for us on the cross, he made a way for us to be de-sinned. He is the final sin offering. By believing in Jesus, we symbolically put our hand on his head like those in Leviticus did with the animal. We put our faith in the fact that Jesus' death dealt with the penalty our sins deserved and we are forgiven.His blood also cleanses the temple of our bodies so that God, in his Spirit, may come dwell in us. Jesus' blood not only makes a way for God to dwell with us, but for us to dwell with God. As we saw in Leviticus, the higher the status of the person making the sin offering, the deeper into the tabernacle the blood would have to go. So when Jesus, who has the highest status imaginable, made the sacrifice of his own blood, it wasn't taken into the depths of an earthly tent, but into the very presence of God. Through his sacrifice, we have full access to God's presence.
