And how does it point to Jesus, the ultimate sacrifice for our sins? In this video, we will explore: ✅ The purpose of the Sin Offering and why it was necessary ✅ How the Israelites sought forgiveness for their sins ✅ The role of the High Priest in making atonement ✅ How Jesus became the ultimate Sin Offering for all of us 📖 Leviticus 4:1-3 – "The Lord said to Moses, ‘Say to the Israelites: When anyone sins unintentionally and does what is forbidden in any of the Lord’s commands, they must bring a sin offering to the Lord.’" ✝️ How This Points to Jesus The Sin Offering was a shadow of what was to come. 🔹 Just as the Israelites had to bring a spotless sacrifice, Jesus, the spotless Lamb, bore our sins on the cross. 🔹 The High Priest mediated for the people, but Jesus is our ultimate High Priest, standing between us and God. 🔹 Through Jesus, we don’t need continual sacrifices—His blood paid the price once and for all. 📖 2 Corinthians 5:21 – "God made Him who had no sin to be sin for us, so that in Him we might become the righteousness of God." 🙏 A Short Prayer for You "Father, thank You for sending Jesus as our ultimate Sin Offering.
