00:00:00.300 --> 00:00:05.040
 We can turn back to our reading in Leviticus chapter 2.

00:00:07.820 --> 00:00:11.939
 We can read at the beginning of this chapter again, Leviticus chapter 2.

00:00:11.939 --> 00:00:18.379
 When anyone brings a grain offering as an offering to the Lord, his offering shall be of fine flour.

00:00:19.179 --> 00:00:25.560
 He shall pour oil on it and put frankincense on it and bring it to Aaron's sons, the priests.

00:00:26.199 --> 00:00:31.280
 And he shall take from it a handful of the fine flour and oil with all of its frankincense.

00:00:31.380 --> 00:00:41.159
 And the priest shall burn this as its memorial portion on the altar, a food offering with a pleasing aroma to the Lord.

00:00:41.939 --> 00:00:42.619
 And so on.

00:00:45.259 --> 00:00:54.019
 When you read in the New Testament in 2 Timothy, there's a verse that reminds us that all Scripture is God-breathed.

00:00:54.179 --> 00:00:57.619
 God has given all of his word to us.

00:00:58.239 --> 00:01:01.060
 And he gives it to us for a purpose.

00:01:01.939 --> 00:01:10.500
 Reminds us in that passage in Timothy as well that it's for our good, for our upbuilding, for all of these things that we seek to find as we turn.

00:01:10.500 --> 00:01:12.280
 To God's word.

00:01:12.280 --> 00:01:20.599
 But there are certain passages and maybe books of the Bible that we don't tend to go to as much.

00:01:21.280 --> 00:01:23.599
 And yet they're still God-breathed.

00:01:23.700 --> 00:01:28.539
 They're given for a purpose, for our good, for our instruction.

00:01:28.540 --> 00:01:36.000
 Which book in the Bible do you find God speaking directly in most?

00:01:37.440 --> 00:01:45.600
 Which book in the Bible is made up, in the sense of the majority of the book, is made up of God speaking directly?

00:01:46.320 --> 00:01:49.280
 Well, it's this book of Leviticus.

00:01:49.280 --> 00:01:55.700
 It's a book where you see God speaking directly almost all the way through it.

00:01:55.760 --> 00:01:57.900
 You see it from the very beginning in chapter 1.

00:01:58.599 --> 00:01:59.659
 The first verse says,

00:01:59.659 --> 00:02:10.900
 And so God is speaking directly throughout this book for much of it.

00:02:11.039 --> 00:02:13.800
 And that says something to us, that this book is important.

00:02:14.439 --> 00:02:16.519
 This book has a lot to say to us.

00:02:16.520 --> 00:02:25.719
 And the very fact that you see it often quoted in the New Testament is a reminder to us of just how important it is as well.

00:02:25.820 --> 00:02:28.700
 We'll touch on that a little bit more tomorrow.

00:02:28.699 --> 00:02:35.119
 But when you start, if you've ever tried starting at the beginning of the Bible, the book of Genesis,

00:02:35.759 --> 00:02:39.979
 and you say to yourself, I'm going to read all the way through the Bible.

00:02:40.179 --> 00:02:42.919
 Starting from the Genesis, I'm going to read all the way through.

00:02:43.000 --> 00:02:44.939
 How far do you get?

00:02:45.839 --> 00:02:49.579
 How many of you have tried that, starting to read the Bible?

00:02:50.280 --> 00:02:55.280
 You come to Leviticus, and it's probably the place where most people suddenly find themselves,

00:02:55.280 --> 00:02:59.719
 not losing interest, but finding it just hard to read through.

00:03:00.360 --> 00:03:07.680
 And very often that's the place where people will give up in that sense of reading all the way through the Bible.

00:03:07.879 --> 00:03:11.199
 Leviticus can be a difficult read in that sense.

00:03:11.340 --> 00:03:13.120
 What is it saying to us?

00:03:13.819 --> 00:03:15.500
 But it has much to say to us.

00:03:15.560 --> 00:03:20.080
 And even as we think of preparing ourselves to remember the Lord's death,

00:03:20.639 --> 00:03:23.539
 God willing tomorrow in the sacrament of the Lord's Supper,

00:03:23.539 --> 00:03:27.879
 we look at this chapter this evening, and God willing tomorrow,

00:03:27.959 --> 00:03:31.400
 we'll look at chapter 16 of this book as well.

00:03:32.219 --> 00:03:36.799
 And we see that it has much to say to us about worship.

00:03:36.939 --> 00:03:40.500
 It has much to say to us about sacrifice, about offering,

00:03:40.979 --> 00:03:43.539
 and what God has done for us.

00:03:44.519 --> 00:03:48.199
 And God is speaking to us through his word here.

00:03:48.199 --> 00:03:54.319
 And the first chapters, first five or six or seven chapters in Leviticus,

00:03:54.459 --> 00:03:59.339
 outline for us a sense of worship and offering to God.

00:03:59.659 --> 00:04:04.439
 And there's five main offerings that you find in these opening chapters.

00:04:04.579 --> 00:04:07.419
 You have the burnt offering, you have the grain offering,

00:04:07.539 --> 00:04:11.599
 the peace offering, the sin offering, and the guilt offering.

00:04:11.719 --> 00:04:16.000
 There's five different offerings that we see in this book.

00:04:16.000 --> 00:04:19.620
 And we're going to look at the second one this evening, this grain offering.

00:04:20.800 --> 00:04:25.779
 Reading through chapter 2, it can sound a little like a cookery class.

00:04:26.860 --> 00:04:32.259
 This is how you are to prepare this grain offering and offer it up to the Lord.

00:04:32.319 --> 00:04:35.740
 It just seems to be repeating itself in different ways,

00:04:35.800 --> 00:04:40.459
 saying this is the way that you are to cook your grain with oil and with frankincense,

00:04:40.459 --> 00:04:45.219
 and how it's to be offered up and how it's to be given to the priests

00:04:45.219 --> 00:04:46.779
 and how they are to eat it.

00:04:47.359 --> 00:04:49.379
 And what is it actually saying to us?

00:04:49.419 --> 00:04:51.879
 What lessons can we take from it?

00:04:51.939 --> 00:04:57.599
 Well, the main application is not that the minister is to be kept in a good supply

00:04:57.599 --> 00:05:00.799
 of pancakes or scones or oat cakes.

00:05:01.019 --> 00:05:02.740
 That's not what it's saying.

00:05:02.879 --> 00:05:04.579
 You could take that sense from it,

00:05:04.639 --> 00:05:08.359
 where the priests have to be given an element of what is cooked,

00:05:08.360 --> 00:05:10.220
 that they are to eat that.

00:05:10.340 --> 00:05:12.460
 This is their supply, as it were.

00:05:12.520 --> 00:05:16.540
 But that's not the main thing that we're taking from it at all.

00:05:16.620 --> 00:05:19.139
 It's much more important than that.

00:05:19.199 --> 00:05:21.520
 There's much more to it than that.

00:05:21.980 --> 00:05:24.139
 Because what it's actually saying to us,

00:05:24.180 --> 00:05:27.500
 as you see it with all the other offerings that come alongside it,

00:05:27.500 --> 00:05:31.819
 is that this is an important aspect of the people's worship,

00:05:31.819 --> 00:05:35.500
 of their worship towards God.

00:05:35.599 --> 00:05:37.659
 It's part of their lifestyle.

00:05:38.639 --> 00:05:41.240
 It forms part of their community,

00:05:41.860 --> 00:05:44.759
 that everybody is involved in this,

00:05:44.879 --> 00:05:48.100
 no matter how little or how much grain that you have,

00:05:48.139 --> 00:05:51.079
 that you have something to give to the Lord,

00:05:51.439 --> 00:05:54.480
 that you have some way of approaching the Lord.

00:05:54.480 --> 00:05:58.240
 Because this is a sacrifice of worship,

00:05:58.879 --> 00:06:02.840
 an offering to God with a sweet aroma you find.

00:06:03.420 --> 00:06:05.319
 So as you look at it, the grain,

00:06:05.840 --> 00:06:07.060
 the ingredients are given to us,

00:06:07.100 --> 00:06:10.319
 the grain, the oil, and the frankincense.

00:06:10.460 --> 00:06:12.220
 The grain is the offering.

00:06:12.960 --> 00:06:16.379
 The oil is there, as is often seen throughout Scripture.

00:06:16.600 --> 00:06:20.480
 Oil is making it set apart as holy to God.

00:06:20.480 --> 00:06:23.980
 And frankincense is what gives it that aroma,

00:06:24.500 --> 00:06:26.879
 that richness as it is baked,

00:06:27.319 --> 00:06:29.100
 as it is cooked on the altar.

00:06:29.240 --> 00:06:31.939
 So all these things come together.

00:06:32.819 --> 00:06:35.120
 And in that sense, it's that aspect of

00:06:35.120 --> 00:06:39.040
 offering up a full worship to God,

00:06:39.620 --> 00:06:43.500
 that we are offering our best to God.

00:06:44.420 --> 00:06:46.540
 And there's four things that I want us to take

00:06:46.540 --> 00:06:49.180
 from this grain offering this evening,

00:06:49.180 --> 00:06:50.840
 as we see it in chapter 2.

00:06:51.319 --> 00:06:54.800
 Four aspects of worship that we can take from this,

00:06:55.420 --> 00:06:57.800
 that we can use to help ourselves

00:06:57.800 --> 00:07:00.860
 prepare for the Lord's Supper tomorrow.

00:07:01.500 --> 00:07:03.579
 To remember what we are doing,

00:07:03.879 --> 00:07:07.439
 to look at it as our relationship with God,

00:07:08.300 --> 00:07:12.460
 that we are preparing ourselves to worship Him aright.

00:07:12.459 --> 00:07:18.060
 That we have all that we have through the Lord Jesus Christ,

00:07:18.819 --> 00:07:22.479
 as we come to partake in the Lord's Supper.

00:07:22.560 --> 00:07:25.759
 Are we worshiping God aright?

00:07:26.680 --> 00:07:29.579
 Are we coming, offering that sweet worship,

00:07:29.719 --> 00:07:32.560
 that sweet aroma to God this evening,

00:07:33.019 --> 00:07:34.699
 in our lives in general,

00:07:34.699 --> 00:07:36.519
 and as we come tomorrow?

00:07:36.759 --> 00:07:39.959
 Is our worship of God what it should be?

00:07:40.620 --> 00:07:43.779
 And how we see the Lord Jesus Christ come

00:07:43.779 --> 00:07:47.959
 from these verses before us this evening as well.

00:07:48.639 --> 00:07:51.000
 So the first thing we want to see about our worship

00:07:51.000 --> 00:07:53.860
 is about the sense of remembrance.

00:07:54.680 --> 00:07:56.019
 It's about remembering.

00:07:56.019 --> 00:07:59.579
 The opening verses tell us this,

00:07:59.959 --> 00:08:01.839
 as they're giving them instruction

00:08:01.839 --> 00:08:04.879
 about what is involved in this grain offering.

00:08:05.779 --> 00:08:09.060
 And you see in verse 2 that it speaks about

00:08:09.060 --> 00:08:11.459
 a memorial portion.

00:08:12.359 --> 00:08:14.519
 A memorial portion.

00:08:15.560 --> 00:08:17.819
 It is offered as a burnt offering,

00:08:18.259 --> 00:08:20.799
 with an aroma pleasing to God,

00:08:20.859 --> 00:08:23.079
 as a memorial portion.

00:08:23.079 --> 00:08:25.719
 And so what is that saying to us?

00:08:26.620 --> 00:08:28.859
 Well, it's saying that there's a recognition

00:08:28.859 --> 00:08:31.339
 of what God has done.

00:08:31.899 --> 00:08:35.679
 It's a memorial, a remembrance portion.

00:08:36.620 --> 00:08:39.220
 Now, it could be applied that there's a remembrance

00:08:39.220 --> 00:08:41.620
 and a thanksgiving for a harvest,

00:08:41.819 --> 00:08:43.899
 but it's much wider than that.

00:08:44.460 --> 00:08:47.059
 It's not just focusing in on one area.

00:08:47.639 --> 00:08:51.480
 It's focusing in on the people's lives in general.

00:08:52.379 --> 00:08:55.399
 That they have a lot and much to give thanks

00:08:55.399 --> 00:09:00.100
 to God for every practical aspect of their lives.

00:09:00.360 --> 00:09:02.480
 Not just a spiritual side,

00:09:02.559 --> 00:09:04.459
 but the practical side as well.

00:09:04.699 --> 00:09:07.139
 That we have a memorial offering,

00:09:07.679 --> 00:09:10.519
 a remembrance offering to give to God

00:09:10.519 --> 00:09:11.860
 in our worship.

00:09:13.740 --> 00:09:15.639
 You remember that the people here,

00:09:16.399 --> 00:09:17.600
 as we're looking at Leviticus,

00:09:17.779 --> 00:09:19.960
 were with Moses as their leader.

00:09:19.960 --> 00:09:21.660
 They were in the wilderness.

00:09:21.660 --> 00:09:23.820
 They were journeying in the wilderness.

00:09:24.759 --> 00:09:26.240
 A place that was barren,

00:09:26.340 --> 00:09:27.759
 a place that was sparse,

00:09:28.879 --> 00:09:32.300
 and yet they had so much to be thankful for

00:09:32.300 --> 00:09:34.000
 as they journeyed with God,

00:09:34.040 --> 00:09:36.280
 as God provided for them.

00:09:37.040 --> 00:09:39.120
 And so this regular grain offering,

00:09:39.580 --> 00:09:42.040
 as the other offerings they all were,

00:09:42.139 --> 00:09:43.900
 they were on a regular basis.

00:09:44.540 --> 00:09:45.759
 Tomorrow we're going to focus

00:09:45.759 --> 00:09:47.720
 on the Day of Atonement,

00:09:47.860 --> 00:09:50.220
 that once-in-a-year sacrifice.

00:09:50.419 --> 00:09:51.539
 But these other offerings,

00:09:51.620 --> 00:09:52.580
 as we're looking at here,

00:09:53.059 --> 00:09:54.259
 they were ongoing.

00:09:54.860 --> 00:09:57.439
 So there was this continual remembrance

00:09:57.439 --> 00:09:59.879
 of what God has done.

00:10:01.000 --> 00:10:02.460
 And at the heart of remembrance

00:10:02.460 --> 00:10:04.419
 is worship.

00:10:05.799 --> 00:10:06.919
 And that's what this is about.

00:10:06.919 --> 00:10:10.039
 The grain offering is about worship.

00:10:11.139 --> 00:10:13.120
 About this sweet aroma

00:10:13.120 --> 00:10:15.819
 being offered up to God.

00:10:17.139 --> 00:10:18.860
 When you look back in the Scriptures,

00:10:19.019 --> 00:10:20.759
 you go to the book of Genesis.

00:10:22.199 --> 00:10:26.019
 Noah was saved by God during the flood.

00:10:26.979 --> 00:10:29.219
 What was the first thing that he did

00:10:29.219 --> 00:10:30.699
 as he came out of the ark?

00:10:31.699 --> 00:10:35.219
 Well, he offered a sacrifice to God.

00:10:35.220 --> 00:10:37.680
 He offered worship to God.

00:10:38.360 --> 00:10:40.220
 In Genesis 8, 21, it says,

00:10:40.360 --> 00:10:43.139
 When the Lord smelled the pleasing aroma,

00:10:43.279 --> 00:10:44.500
 the Lord said in his heart,

00:10:44.600 --> 00:10:46.700
 I will never again curse the ground

00:10:46.700 --> 00:10:48.259
 because of man.

00:10:48.899 --> 00:10:51.259
 Noah offered up a sacrifice.

00:10:51.500 --> 00:10:53.680
 And the aroma was pleasing to the Lord.

00:10:54.279 --> 00:10:55.820
 And he gave that great promise.

00:10:55.920 --> 00:10:58.000
 I will never again curse the ground

00:10:58.000 --> 00:11:00.420
 because of man.

00:11:01.120 --> 00:11:02.320
 What we find is that

00:11:02.320 --> 00:11:03.960
 as we draw near to God

00:11:03.960 --> 00:11:05.000
 in this remembrance,

00:11:05.740 --> 00:11:07.000
 in this memorial,

00:11:07.180 --> 00:11:07.960
 in this offering,

00:11:08.400 --> 00:11:09.639
 a sweet fragrance

00:11:09.639 --> 00:11:11.900
 of worship to God

00:11:11.900 --> 00:11:13.300
 that he blesses,

00:11:14.200 --> 00:11:15.840
 that he is able to bless

00:11:15.840 --> 00:11:19.340
 as our focus is on him.

00:11:20.360 --> 00:11:21.879
 And so this grain offering

00:11:21.879 --> 00:11:22.820
 that seems maybe

00:11:22.820 --> 00:11:25.259
 so simple in many ways,

00:11:25.920 --> 00:11:27.220
 it maybe seems a little

00:11:27.220 --> 00:11:28.900
 out of place here.

00:11:28.960 --> 00:11:30.280
 We could have focused

00:11:30.280 --> 00:11:32.100
 on other offerings,

00:11:32.100 --> 00:11:33.500
 the burnt offering,

00:11:33.600 --> 00:11:34.500
 the sin offering

00:11:34.500 --> 00:11:36.399
 that would seem in many ways

00:11:36.399 --> 00:11:37.480
 more important

00:11:37.480 --> 00:11:40.019
 because they remind us

00:11:40.019 --> 00:11:41.840
 of that sense of forgiveness.

00:11:42.100 --> 00:11:44.820
 But forgiveness is part of this

00:11:44.820 --> 00:11:47.360
 because the memorial portion,

00:11:47.480 --> 00:11:48.659
 the remembrance of God

00:11:48.659 --> 00:11:50.360
 is remembering deliverance,

00:11:51.159 --> 00:11:52.720
 remembering God's blessings,

00:11:53.680 --> 00:11:55.120
 remembering God's goodness.

00:11:55.120 --> 00:11:55.320
 goodness.

00:11:55.720 --> 00:11:57.419
 And so they offer up

00:11:57.419 --> 00:12:00.259
 this remembrance offering.

00:12:01.820 --> 00:12:04.220
 And when we look at ourselves tonight,

00:12:04.620 --> 00:12:06.220
 when you look at your life,

00:12:06.720 --> 00:12:08.460
 when you look at what God

00:12:08.460 --> 00:12:09.740
 has done for you,

00:12:10.580 --> 00:12:11.779
 do you see the goodness

00:12:11.779 --> 00:12:13.440
 of God tonight?

00:12:14.500 --> 00:12:16.519
 We can come to the Lord's Supper

00:12:16.519 --> 00:12:17.279
 and we can think

00:12:17.279 --> 00:12:18.779
 it's our sins

00:12:18.779 --> 00:12:20.279
 that we are focusing on,

00:12:20.879 --> 00:12:23.039
 our sins that are many

00:12:23.039 --> 00:12:24.379
 as we look at them

00:12:24.379 --> 00:12:25.120
 and we look at them

00:12:25.120 --> 00:12:26.000
 and we know them.

00:12:26.679 --> 00:12:27.500
 And we thank God

00:12:27.500 --> 00:12:28.299
 for the forgiveness

00:12:28.299 --> 00:12:29.860
 of our sin.

00:12:30.959 --> 00:12:32.120
 But we look too

00:12:32.120 --> 00:12:33.139
 about the goodness

00:12:33.139 --> 00:12:34.579
 of God,

00:12:34.959 --> 00:12:36.819
 the marshes of God,

00:12:37.259 --> 00:12:37.980
 the way God

00:12:37.980 --> 00:12:38.740
 has been with us

00:12:38.740 --> 00:12:39.899
 since we last sat

00:12:39.899 --> 00:12:41.339
 at the Lord's table

00:12:41.339 --> 00:12:42.279
 and give thanks

00:12:42.279 --> 00:12:43.179
 and remember

00:12:43.179 --> 00:12:44.620
 God's goodness.

00:12:45.959 --> 00:12:46.879
 Frederick Marsh,

00:12:47.039 --> 00:12:48.000
 a Christian writer,

00:12:48.659 --> 00:12:49.819
 he once looked at it

00:12:49.819 --> 00:12:50.699
 in this way,

00:12:50.700 --> 00:12:52.980
 what the Christian sees

00:12:52.980 --> 00:12:53.920
 when he looks back

00:12:53.920 --> 00:12:55.300
 and can give thanks for,

00:12:55.840 --> 00:12:56.840
 the deliverance

00:12:56.840 --> 00:12:58.040
 of the Lord

00:12:58.040 --> 00:12:59.740
 that he has brought,

00:13:00.500 --> 00:13:01.420
 the way

00:13:01.420 --> 00:13:02.500
 the Lord

00:13:02.500 --> 00:13:03.320
 has led,

00:13:04.000 --> 00:13:04.960
 the blessings

00:13:04.960 --> 00:13:05.900
 the Lord

00:13:05.900 --> 00:13:06.980
 has given,

00:13:07.660 --> 00:13:08.660
 the victories

00:13:08.660 --> 00:13:09.440
 the Lord

00:13:09.440 --> 00:13:10.640
 has won,

00:13:11.360 --> 00:13:12.560
 the encouragements

00:13:12.560 --> 00:13:13.600
 the Lord

00:13:13.600 --> 00:13:14.680
 has given.

00:13:15.640 --> 00:13:15.840
 You know,

00:13:15.860 --> 00:13:16.420
 as you look back

00:13:16.420 --> 00:13:17.480
 in your life tonight,

00:13:17.480 --> 00:13:20.060
 whether it's short term

00:13:20.060 --> 00:13:21.279
 or longer term,

00:13:21.320 --> 00:13:21.899
 looking back

00:13:21.899 --> 00:13:22.659
 over your life,

00:13:23.480 --> 00:13:24.159
 do you not have much

00:13:24.159 --> 00:13:24.960
 to give thanks

00:13:24.960 --> 00:13:25.899
 to God for

00:13:25.899 --> 00:13:27.820
 and to offer up

00:13:27.820 --> 00:13:29.159
 a remembrance

00:13:29.159 --> 00:13:29.940
 offering

00:13:29.940 --> 00:13:30.800
 to God,

00:13:31.600 --> 00:13:32.879
 to remember

00:13:32.879 --> 00:13:34.519
 what he has done.

00:13:35.980 --> 00:13:37.379
 How do we remember

00:13:37.379 --> 00:13:38.399
 the Lord?

00:13:39.700 --> 00:13:39.980
 Well,

00:13:40.000 --> 00:13:40.620
 that is what we are

00:13:40.620 --> 00:13:41.120
 to do

00:13:41.120 --> 00:13:42.500
 this weekend.

00:13:43.600 --> 00:13:44.659
 What we are doing

00:13:44.659 --> 00:13:45.419
 is to come

00:13:45.419 --> 00:13:46.719
 and partake

00:13:46.719 --> 00:13:48.039
 in what the Lord

00:13:48.039 --> 00:13:48.679
 has done

00:13:48.679 --> 00:13:49.500
 for us,

00:13:50.500 --> 00:13:51.139
 to give

00:13:51.139 --> 00:13:53.139
 a worship

00:13:53.139 --> 00:13:54.600
 that has a rich

00:13:54.600 --> 00:13:56.219
 aroma of thanksgiving

00:13:56.219 --> 00:13:57.379
 to God

00:13:57.379 --> 00:13:59.100
 for the sacrifice

00:13:59.100 --> 00:14:00.299
 that he has made

00:14:00.299 --> 00:14:01.019
 for us,

00:14:01.980 --> 00:14:02.939
 that he gave

00:14:02.939 --> 00:14:04.179
 his life.

00:14:05.199 --> 00:14:06.159
 And that as we sang

00:14:06.159 --> 00:14:07.779
 in Psalm 116,

00:14:08.279 --> 00:14:09.279
 what can we do?

00:14:09.839 --> 00:14:10.899
 What can we give

00:14:10.899 --> 00:14:11.519
 to the Lord

00:14:11.519 --> 00:14:12.519
 for all of his goodness

00:14:12.519 --> 00:14:13.220
 to us?

00:14:13.220 --> 00:14:14.100
 The Psalm says,

00:14:14.200 --> 00:14:14.920
 what shall I render

00:14:14.920 --> 00:14:15.500
 to the Lord

00:14:15.500 --> 00:14:16.660
 for all his benefits

00:14:16.660 --> 00:14:17.160
 to me?

00:14:17.220 --> 00:14:17.879
 I will lift

00:14:17.879 --> 00:14:19.120
 up the cup

00:14:19.120 --> 00:14:19.899
 of salvation

00:14:19.899 --> 00:14:21.399
 and call

00:14:21.399 --> 00:14:22.500
 on the name

00:14:22.500 --> 00:14:23.480
 of the Lord.

00:14:24.139 --> 00:14:25.100
 That is worship.

00:14:26.440 --> 00:14:27.220
 That is a worship

00:14:27.220 --> 00:14:28.259
 that has a sweet

00:14:28.259 --> 00:14:29.320
 aroma

00:14:29.320 --> 00:14:30.940
 because it is

00:14:30.940 --> 00:14:31.800
 giving thanks

00:14:31.800 --> 00:14:32.840
 to God,

00:14:33.460 --> 00:14:34.500
 remembering God

00:14:34.500 --> 00:14:35.639
 for all that

00:14:35.639 --> 00:14:36.300
 he has done

00:14:36.300 --> 00:14:37.600
 because Jesus

00:14:37.600 --> 00:14:38.019
 said,

00:14:38.240 --> 00:14:38.759
 do this

00:14:38.759 --> 00:14:40.600
 in remembrance

00:14:40.600 --> 00:14:41.759
 of me.

00:14:41.759 --> 00:14:43.879
 so our worship

00:14:43.879 --> 00:14:44.899
 is to be

00:14:44.899 --> 00:14:45.279
 one

00:14:45.279 --> 00:14:46.840
 of remembrance.

00:14:47.819 --> 00:14:48.379
 The second thing

00:14:48.379 --> 00:14:48.919
 we see here

00:14:48.919 --> 00:14:50.200
 is it's a worship

00:14:50.200 --> 00:14:51.460
 of giving,

00:14:51.980 --> 00:14:53.120
 of giving

00:14:53.120 --> 00:14:54.419
 to the Lord.

00:14:56.100 --> 00:14:57.139
 They are bringing

00:14:57.139 --> 00:14:58.439
 their grain offering

00:14:58.439 --> 00:14:59.480
 to the Lord

00:14:59.480 --> 00:15:00.319
 in its various

00:15:00.319 --> 00:15:01.100
 formats.

00:15:01.200 --> 00:15:01.759
 And as you read

00:15:01.759 --> 00:15:02.899
 through the different

00:15:02.899 --> 00:15:04.759
 ways that it is given,

00:15:04.879 --> 00:15:05.460
 it's a reminder

00:15:05.460 --> 00:15:06.279
 that everybody

00:15:06.279 --> 00:15:07.700
 in this community

00:15:07.700 --> 00:15:08.580
 is involved.

00:15:08.580 --> 00:15:08.700
 involved.

00:15:09.700 --> 00:15:10.379
 There may be

00:15:10.379 --> 00:15:11.320
 some that are

00:15:11.320 --> 00:15:12.320
 giving maybe

00:15:12.320 --> 00:15:13.420
 a more expensive

00:15:13.420 --> 00:15:13.920
 grain,

00:15:14.040 --> 00:15:15.060
 a finer grain,

00:15:15.480 --> 00:15:16.400
 a different kind

00:15:16.400 --> 00:15:17.040
 of way of it

00:15:17.040 --> 00:15:17.920
 being prepared,

00:15:18.440 --> 00:15:19.139
 but each

00:15:19.139 --> 00:15:20.379
 and every one

00:15:20.379 --> 00:15:21.820
 is being offered

00:15:21.820 --> 00:15:22.820
 as a sense

00:15:22.820 --> 00:15:23.620
 of giving

00:15:23.620 --> 00:15:24.900
 to the Lord.

00:15:25.560 --> 00:15:26.520
 It's acknowledging

00:15:26.520 --> 00:15:27.660
 God's goodness

00:15:27.660 --> 00:15:28.460
 and the people

00:15:28.460 --> 00:15:29.840
 remembering this

00:15:29.840 --> 00:15:30.560
 by giving

00:15:30.560 --> 00:15:31.420
 to him.

00:15:33.000 --> 00:15:34.060
 And as they

00:15:34.060 --> 00:15:35.040
 do this,

00:15:35.160 --> 00:15:35.600
 they do it

00:15:35.600 --> 00:15:36.360
 by bringing it

00:15:36.360 --> 00:15:37.860
 as a gift.

00:15:38.480 --> 00:15:39.000
 That is what

00:15:39.000 --> 00:15:39.899
 these offerings

00:15:39.899 --> 00:15:40.460
 are,

00:15:40.560 --> 00:15:40.960
 a tribute,

00:15:41.080 --> 00:15:41.759
 a portion

00:15:41.759 --> 00:15:43.300
 of the goodness

00:15:43.300 --> 00:15:44.180
 of God

00:15:44.180 --> 00:15:45.159
 giving back

00:15:45.159 --> 00:15:46.220
 to him.

00:15:47.100 --> 00:15:47.680
 So when you look

00:15:47.680 --> 00:15:48.399
 at these offerings

00:15:48.399 --> 00:15:49.200
 in the beginning

00:15:49.200 --> 00:15:50.480
 of Leviticus,

00:15:50.620 --> 00:15:51.480
 what would the people

00:15:51.480 --> 00:15:52.940
 have understood

00:15:52.940 --> 00:15:54.039
 by it?

00:15:55.120 --> 00:15:55.399
 Well,

00:15:55.399 --> 00:15:55.820
 they would have

00:15:55.820 --> 00:15:56.720
 understood that

00:15:56.720 --> 00:15:58.240
 all that they have

00:15:58.240 --> 00:15:59.700
 is from God.

00:16:00.899 --> 00:16:01.759
 Everything that

00:16:01.759 --> 00:16:02.360
 they have,

00:16:03.000 --> 00:16:03.659
 whether it's

00:16:03.659 --> 00:16:04.700
 their cattle,

00:16:05.100 --> 00:16:05.779
 their sheep,

00:16:05.779 --> 00:16:06.779
 their goats,

00:16:07.559 --> 00:16:08.879
 their birds,

00:16:09.240 --> 00:16:09.860
 their grain,

00:16:10.500 --> 00:16:11.220
 everything that

00:16:11.220 --> 00:16:11.799
 they have

00:16:11.799 --> 00:16:13.279
 is from God.

00:16:13.860 --> 00:16:14.439
 And what they

00:16:14.439 --> 00:16:14.839
 are doing

00:16:14.839 --> 00:16:16.539
 is giving back

00:16:16.539 --> 00:16:17.240
 to God

00:16:17.240 --> 00:16:18.120
 what is his,

00:16:18.899 --> 00:16:19.480
 of giving

00:16:19.480 --> 00:16:20.159
 themselves

00:16:20.159 --> 00:16:21.879
 to the Lord.

00:16:23.220 --> 00:16:23.879
 And so what

00:16:23.879 --> 00:16:24.939
 this grain offering

00:16:24.939 --> 00:16:25.459
 was,

00:16:25.480 --> 00:16:26.159
 was a sense

00:16:26.159 --> 00:16:27.679
 of dedication,

00:16:28.480 --> 00:16:29.199
 a sense of

00:16:29.199 --> 00:16:30.019
 pledging

00:16:30.019 --> 00:16:30.600
 themselves

00:16:30.600 --> 00:16:31.600
 once again

00:16:31.600 --> 00:16:32.759
 to God,

00:16:33.279 --> 00:16:34.779
 ongoing sacrifice

00:16:34.779 --> 00:16:35.600
 in that way.

00:16:36.179 --> 00:16:36.699
 They showed

00:16:36.699 --> 00:16:37.620
 their commitment

00:16:37.620 --> 00:16:38.959
 to God.

00:16:40.100 --> 00:16:40.699
 And as we

00:16:40.699 --> 00:16:42.000
 come to take

00:16:42.000 --> 00:16:42.620
 part in the

00:16:42.620 --> 00:16:43.399
 Lord's Supper,

00:16:43.779 --> 00:16:44.439
 that is what

00:16:44.439 --> 00:16:45.059
 we are doing

00:16:45.059 --> 00:16:45.740
 as well.

00:16:46.240 --> 00:16:47.179
 We are reminding

00:16:47.179 --> 00:16:48.279
 ourselves that

00:16:48.279 --> 00:16:49.279
 everything that we

00:16:49.279 --> 00:16:50.720
 have is from

00:16:50.720 --> 00:16:51.199
 God.

00:16:52.199 --> 00:16:52.720
 And that we are

00:16:52.720 --> 00:16:53.620
 giving back to

00:16:53.620 --> 00:16:55.000
 him the glory,

00:16:55.339 --> 00:16:56.000
 the worship

00:16:56.000 --> 00:16:57.279
 that is due.

00:16:58.519 --> 00:16:59.399
 Everything that we

00:16:59.399 --> 00:16:59.720
 have,

00:17:00.019 --> 00:17:00.740
 if we have

00:17:00.740 --> 00:17:01.899
 salvation,

00:17:01.899 --> 00:17:02.019
 salvation,

00:17:02.220 --> 00:17:03.000
 it is all

00:17:03.000 --> 00:17:03.639
 because of

00:17:03.639 --> 00:17:03.879
 him.

00:17:04.619 --> 00:17:05.359
 Not because of

00:17:05.359 --> 00:17:05.920
 anything that

00:17:05.920 --> 00:17:06.660
 we have done,

00:17:07.000 --> 00:17:07.579
 it's all

00:17:07.579 --> 00:17:08.240
 because of

00:17:08.240 --> 00:17:08.460
 him.

00:17:08.779 --> 00:17:09.500
 We come

00:17:09.500 --> 00:17:10.220
 not offering

00:17:10.220 --> 00:17:11.240
 ourselves to

00:17:11.240 --> 00:17:11.460
 him,

00:17:11.740 --> 00:17:12.359
 we come

00:17:12.359 --> 00:17:12.740
 offering

00:17:12.740 --> 00:17:13.259
 ourselves

00:17:13.259 --> 00:17:14.619
 to him.

00:17:16.859 --> 00:17:17.440
 Offering

00:17:17.440 --> 00:17:18.019
 ourselves in

00:17:18.019 --> 00:17:18.539
 that sense

00:17:18.539 --> 00:17:18.960
 of we are

00:17:18.960 --> 00:17:19.599
 dependent

00:17:19.599 --> 00:17:20.920
 on him.

00:17:23.639 --> 00:17:24.039
 And so

00:17:24.039 --> 00:17:24.700
 here you're

00:17:24.700 --> 00:17:25.700
 seeing that

00:17:25.700 --> 00:17:26.579
 is the sense

00:17:26.579 --> 00:17:27.139
 of giving

00:17:27.139 --> 00:17:27.920
 to God

00:17:27.920 --> 00:17:28.740
 what is

00:17:28.740 --> 00:17:29.279
 already

00:17:29.279 --> 00:17:30.099
 his.

00:17:31.720 --> 00:17:32.139
 And there

00:17:32.139 --> 00:17:32.920
 was a cost

00:17:32.920 --> 00:17:33.960
 in this

00:17:33.960 --> 00:17:34.319
 giving.

00:17:35.039 --> 00:17:36.119
 Anytime that

00:17:36.119 --> 00:17:37.299
 we see a

00:17:37.299 --> 00:17:38.319
 sacrifice being

00:17:38.319 --> 00:17:38.819
 offered,

00:17:39.420 --> 00:17:40.460
 it is because

00:17:40.460 --> 00:17:41.480
 there is a

00:17:41.480 --> 00:17:42.160
 cost.

00:17:42.740 --> 00:17:43.579
 They are giving

00:17:43.579 --> 00:17:44.740
 part of what

00:17:44.740 --> 00:17:45.220
 they could easily

00:17:45.220 --> 00:17:45.779
 say, well,

00:17:45.819 --> 00:17:46.480
 it's mine.

00:17:47.399 --> 00:17:48.500
 I don't have

00:17:48.500 --> 00:17:49.180
 to give it.

00:17:50.359 --> 00:17:50.819
 But anything

00:17:50.819 --> 00:17:51.399
 that we have

00:17:51.399 --> 00:17:51.899
 and we see

00:17:51.899 --> 00:17:52.639
 from God,

00:17:52.980 --> 00:17:53.980
 it is his

00:17:53.980 --> 00:17:55.339
 and is about

00:17:55.339 --> 00:17:56.200
 giving back

00:17:56.200 --> 00:17:57.240
 to him.

00:17:57.240 --> 00:17:59.420
 And so

00:17:59.420 --> 00:18:00.579
 we come

00:18:00.579 --> 00:18:01.640
 to give

00:18:01.640 --> 00:18:02.539
 to him

00:18:02.539 --> 00:18:03.620
 because he

00:18:03.620 --> 00:18:04.680
 has given

00:18:04.680 --> 00:18:05.819
 to us.

00:18:07.059 --> 00:18:07.700
 He has

00:18:07.700 --> 00:18:08.220
 given us

00:18:08.220 --> 00:18:08.900
 his son.

00:18:10.259 --> 00:18:10.579
 He has

00:18:10.579 --> 00:18:11.059
 given us

00:18:11.059 --> 00:18:11.680
 salvation.

00:18:12.339 --> 00:18:12.640
 He has

00:18:12.640 --> 00:18:13.120
 given us

00:18:13.120 --> 00:18:13.779
 forgiveness.

00:18:14.640 --> 00:18:15.240
 Whatever way

00:18:15.240 --> 00:18:15.720
 you're looking

00:18:15.720 --> 00:18:16.079
 at it,

00:18:16.319 --> 00:18:17.220
 it is God

00:18:17.220 --> 00:18:17.660
 who has

00:18:17.660 --> 00:18:18.880
 done and

00:18:18.880 --> 00:18:19.240
 we are

00:18:19.240 --> 00:18:19.819
 to give.

00:18:21.940 --> 00:18:22.380
 And when

00:18:22.380 --> 00:18:22.740
 they do

00:18:22.740 --> 00:18:23.160
 this,

00:18:23.359 --> 00:18:23.779
 they offer

00:18:23.779 --> 00:18:24.839
 up their

00:18:24.839 --> 00:18:25.380
 best.

00:18:26.079 --> 00:18:26.500
 You see

00:18:26.500 --> 00:18:27.000
 it here,

00:18:27.460 --> 00:18:27.940
 for example,

00:18:28.059 --> 00:18:28.920
 in verse 14,

00:18:29.019 --> 00:18:29.259
 if you

00:18:29.259 --> 00:18:29.700
 offer a

00:18:29.700 --> 00:18:30.279
 grain offering

00:18:30.279 --> 00:18:30.680
 of the

00:18:30.680 --> 00:18:31.700
 first fruits

00:18:31.700 --> 00:18:32.619
 to the

00:18:32.619 --> 00:18:32.920
 Lord,

00:18:33.019 --> 00:18:33.519
 the first

00:18:33.519 --> 00:18:34.079
 fruits were

00:18:34.079 --> 00:18:35.119
 always the

00:18:35.119 --> 00:18:35.720
 best.

00:18:37.119 --> 00:18:37.339
 You can

00:18:37.339 --> 00:18:37.660
 easily say,

00:18:37.720 --> 00:18:37.799
 well,

00:18:37.839 --> 00:18:38.180
 we'll leave

00:18:38.180 --> 00:18:38.660
 it till the

00:18:38.660 --> 00:18:39.460
 second or

00:18:39.460 --> 00:18:40.039
 the third

00:18:40.039 --> 00:18:40.619
 harvest,

00:18:41.000 --> 00:18:41.500
 the ones

00:18:41.500 --> 00:18:41.759
 that maybe

00:18:41.759 --> 00:18:42.299
 aren't as

00:18:42.299 --> 00:18:42.920
 important.

00:18:43.880 --> 00:18:44.440
 You see it

00:18:44.440 --> 00:18:44.839
 again and

00:18:44.839 --> 00:18:45.559
 again through

00:18:45.559 --> 00:18:46.240
 Scripture where

00:18:46.240 --> 00:18:46.720
 there is a

00:18:46.720 --> 00:18:47.220
 lack of

00:18:47.220 --> 00:18:47.680
 worship,

00:18:48.220 --> 00:18:48.680
 a lack of

00:18:48.680 --> 00:18:49.359
 relationship

00:18:49.359 --> 00:18:49.839
 that is

00:18:49.839 --> 00:18:50.440
 right with

00:18:50.440 --> 00:18:50.799
 God.

00:18:51.099 --> 00:18:51.720
 It is not

00:18:51.720 --> 00:18:52.160
 the giving

00:18:52.160 --> 00:18:52.559
 of the

00:18:52.559 --> 00:18:53.099
 best,

00:18:54.319 --> 00:18:54.720
 but the

00:18:54.720 --> 00:18:55.759
 giving of

00:18:55.759 --> 00:18:56.339
 the second.

00:18:56.339 --> 00:18:59.220
 In Malachi,

00:19:00.059 --> 00:19:01.259
 in these

00:19:01.259 --> 00:19:02.000
 later books

00:19:02.000 --> 00:19:02.279
 in the

00:19:02.279 --> 00:19:02.879
 Old Testament,

00:19:03.000 --> 00:19:03.659
 you see how

00:19:03.659 --> 00:19:04.659
 they give

00:19:04.659 --> 00:19:05.699
 lame animals

00:19:05.699 --> 00:19:06.279
 and all of

00:19:06.279 --> 00:19:06.959
 these kinds

00:19:06.959 --> 00:19:07.639
 of things.

00:19:08.119 --> 00:19:08.419
 They are

00:19:08.419 --> 00:19:09.439
 holding back

00:19:09.439 --> 00:19:10.299
 from God.

00:19:10.799 --> 00:19:11.519
 Instead of

00:19:11.519 --> 00:19:11.939
 giving,

00:19:12.339 --> 00:19:12.720
 they are

00:19:12.720 --> 00:19:13.159
 keeping.

00:19:14.740 --> 00:19:15.159
 And if

00:19:15.159 --> 00:19:15.339
 you are

00:19:15.339 --> 00:19:15.919
 doing that,

00:19:15.980 --> 00:19:16.240
 you are

00:19:16.240 --> 00:19:17.119
 robbing God.

00:19:17.480 --> 00:19:17.879
 That is what

00:19:17.879 --> 00:19:18.779
 Malachi says

00:19:18.779 --> 00:19:19.659
 in chapter 3,

00:19:19.759 --> 00:19:20.359
 verse 8.

00:19:20.980 --> 00:19:21.799
 Will man

00:19:21.799 --> 00:19:22.679
 rob God?

00:19:23.179 --> 00:19:23.779
 Yet you are

00:19:23.779 --> 00:19:24.379
 robbing me.

00:19:24.380 --> 00:19:24.820
 But you

00:19:24.820 --> 00:19:25.060
 say,

00:19:25.180 --> 00:19:25.800
 how have

00:19:25.800 --> 00:19:26.240
 I robbed

00:19:26.240 --> 00:19:26.500
 you?

00:19:26.820 --> 00:19:27.280
 In your

00:19:27.280 --> 00:19:28.120
 tithes and

00:19:28.120 --> 00:19:28.340
 your

00:19:28.340 --> 00:19:29.120
 contributions.

00:19:30.280 --> 00:19:30.640
 They were

00:19:30.640 --> 00:19:31.660
 holding back

00:19:31.660 --> 00:19:32.400
 from God.

00:19:33.140 --> 00:19:33.780
 They weren't

00:19:33.780 --> 00:19:34.920
 giving as

00:19:34.920 --> 00:19:35.620
 they should.

00:19:37.140 --> 00:19:37.760
 Are you

00:19:37.760 --> 00:19:38.520
 holding back

00:19:38.520 --> 00:19:39.100
 from God

00:19:39.100 --> 00:19:39.520
 tonight?

00:19:40.240 --> 00:19:40.720
 Are you

00:19:40.720 --> 00:19:41.500
 keeping back

00:19:41.500 --> 00:19:42.040
 from God

00:19:42.040 --> 00:19:42.700
 what is due

00:19:42.700 --> 00:19:43.240
 to Him?

00:19:44.240 --> 00:19:44.700
 In that

00:19:44.700 --> 00:19:45.380
 sense of

00:19:45.380 --> 00:19:46.460
 your worship,

00:19:47.380 --> 00:19:48.360
 your best,

00:19:49.100 --> 00:19:49.920
 your service,

00:19:50.100 --> 00:19:50.740
 your life,

00:19:51.380 --> 00:19:52.160
 everything that

00:19:52.160 --> 00:19:52.940
 you have from

00:19:52.940 --> 00:19:53.200
 Him?

00:19:53.440 --> 00:19:53.799
 Are you

00:19:53.799 --> 00:19:54.500
 giving back

00:19:54.500 --> 00:19:54.840
 to Him

00:19:54.840 --> 00:19:55.220
 with that

00:19:55.220 --> 00:19:55.840
 sense of

00:19:55.840 --> 00:19:56.620
 thanksgiving,

00:19:56.880 --> 00:19:57.600
 that sense

00:19:57.600 --> 00:19:58.640
 of rejoicing,

00:19:58.960 --> 00:19:59.840
 that sense

00:19:59.840 --> 00:20:00.960
 of adoration

00:20:00.960 --> 00:20:02.480
 that is due

00:20:02.480 --> 00:20:03.039
 to Him?

00:20:04.759 --> 00:20:05.299
 We are to

00:20:05.299 --> 00:20:06.380
 be givers,

00:20:07.200 --> 00:20:09.279
 not keepers.

00:20:10.279 --> 00:20:10.960
 We are to

00:20:10.960 --> 00:20:11.720
 give ourselves

00:20:11.720 --> 00:20:13.000
 fully to

00:20:13.000 --> 00:20:13.420
 the Lord,

00:20:13.500 --> 00:20:14.080
 to commit

00:20:14.080 --> 00:20:15.380
 our ways

00:20:15.380 --> 00:20:16.279
 to the

00:20:16.279 --> 00:20:16.559
 Lord,

00:20:16.559 --> 00:20:17.660
 not to

00:20:17.660 --> 00:20:18.620
 hold back

00:20:18.620 --> 00:20:19.820
 from Him.

00:20:20.759 --> 00:20:21.200
 Holding

00:20:21.200 --> 00:20:21.819
 back,

00:20:22.340 --> 00:20:23.039
 what is

00:20:23.039 --> 00:20:23.460
 due to

00:20:23.460 --> 00:20:23.880
 Him is

00:20:23.880 --> 00:20:24.380
 robbing

00:20:24.380 --> 00:20:24.900
 God.

00:20:25.480 --> 00:20:26.019
 It is

00:20:26.019 --> 00:20:27.059
 disobedience.

00:20:28.580 --> 00:20:28.860
 And so

00:20:28.860 --> 00:20:29.220
 are you

00:20:29.220 --> 00:20:30.380
 coming to

00:20:30.380 --> 00:20:30.840
 give Him

00:20:30.840 --> 00:20:31.160
 what He

00:20:31.160 --> 00:20:31.799
 deserves?

00:20:32.860 --> 00:20:33.680
 Your love,

00:20:34.400 --> 00:20:35.080
 your life,

00:20:36.039 --> 00:20:36.680
 your all.

00:20:39.059 --> 00:20:39.580
 That is

00:20:39.580 --> 00:20:39.980
 how we are

00:20:39.980 --> 00:20:40.559
 to come

00:20:40.559 --> 00:20:41.420
 to the

00:20:41.420 --> 00:20:41.840
 Lord's

00:20:41.840 --> 00:20:42.279
 table,

00:20:42.660 --> 00:20:43.700
 giving to

00:20:43.700 --> 00:20:44.100
 Him

00:20:44.100 --> 00:20:45.160
 what is

00:20:45.160 --> 00:20:45.600
 due.

00:20:45.599 --> 00:20:49.099
 in

00:20:49.099 --> 00:20:50.679
 2 Corinthians

00:20:50.679 --> 00:20:51.559
 chapter 9,

00:20:52.139 --> 00:20:52.859
 Paul speaks

00:20:52.859 --> 00:20:53.599
 about that

00:20:53.599 --> 00:20:55.119
 cheerful

00:20:55.119 --> 00:20:55.559
 giver.

00:20:55.719 --> 00:20:55.799
 It is

00:20:55.799 --> 00:20:56.419
 spoken about

00:20:56.419 --> 00:20:56.980
 maybe in a

00:20:56.980 --> 00:20:57.779
 financial way,

00:20:57.819 --> 00:20:58.500
 but everything

00:20:58.500 --> 00:20:59.159
 that we do,

00:20:59.959 --> 00:21:00.719
 every act

00:21:00.719 --> 00:21:01.379
 of worship

00:21:01.379 --> 00:21:02.779
 is to be

00:21:02.779 --> 00:21:03.459
 given in a

00:21:03.459 --> 00:21:04.579
 cheerful way.

00:21:05.719 --> 00:21:06.179
 Each one

00:21:06.179 --> 00:21:06.819
 must give

00:21:06.819 --> 00:21:07.219
 as he has

00:21:07.219 --> 00:21:07.819
 decided in

00:21:07.819 --> 00:21:08.179
 his heart,

00:21:08.279 --> 00:21:09.199
 not reluctantly

00:21:09.199 --> 00:21:09.679
 or under

00:21:09.679 --> 00:21:10.339
 compulsion,

00:21:10.519 --> 00:21:11.139
 for God

00:21:11.139 --> 00:21:12.399
 loves a

00:21:12.399 --> 00:21:12.980
 cheerful

00:21:12.980 --> 00:21:13.579
 giver.

00:21:13.579 --> 00:21:14.339
 a

00:21:14.339 --> 00:21:14.919
 hilarious

00:21:14.919 --> 00:21:15.460
 giver

00:21:15.460 --> 00:21:15.799
 is the

00:21:15.799 --> 00:21:16.199
 word that

00:21:16.199 --> 00:21:16.679
 is used

00:21:16.679 --> 00:21:17.500
 for cheerful.

00:21:18.059 --> 00:21:18.299
 It is

00:21:18.299 --> 00:21:18.879
 that sense

00:21:18.879 --> 00:21:19.319
 of just

00:21:19.319 --> 00:21:19.960
 there is

00:21:19.960 --> 00:21:20.579
 joy,

00:21:20.699 --> 00:21:20.939
 there is

00:21:20.939 --> 00:21:21.679
 delight.

00:21:22.299 --> 00:21:22.740
 When you

00:21:22.740 --> 00:21:22.960
 look at

00:21:22.960 --> 00:21:23.579
 that sense

00:21:23.579 --> 00:21:24.699
 of frankincense

00:21:24.699 --> 00:21:25.099
 that was

00:21:25.099 --> 00:21:25.839
 offered up

00:21:25.839 --> 00:21:26.240
 here,

00:21:26.720 --> 00:21:27.519
 that aroma,

00:21:28.240 --> 00:21:28.699
 it made

00:21:28.699 --> 00:21:29.559
 it sweet.

00:21:31.059 --> 00:21:31.419
 And that

00:21:31.419 --> 00:21:31.919
 is what our

00:21:31.919 --> 00:21:32.539
 giving is

00:21:32.539 --> 00:21:33.099
 to be like,

00:21:33.139 --> 00:21:33.819
 a sweet

00:21:33.819 --> 00:21:34.939
 giving to

00:21:34.939 --> 00:21:35.419
 the Lord,

00:21:35.699 --> 00:21:37.079
 a thanksgiving

00:21:37.079 --> 00:21:38.699
 giving to

00:21:38.699 --> 00:21:39.240
 the Lord.

00:21:40.939 --> 00:21:41.519
 The third

00:21:41.519 --> 00:21:41.960
 thing that we

00:21:41.960 --> 00:21:42.819
 see here

00:21:42.819 --> 00:21:44.119
 in this

00:21:44.119 --> 00:21:44.720
 offering is

00:21:44.720 --> 00:21:45.159
 that it's

00:21:45.159 --> 00:21:45.879
 preserving.

00:21:47.179 --> 00:21:47.480
 It's

00:21:47.480 --> 00:21:48.119
 preserving.

00:21:51.799 --> 00:21:52.359
 In

00:21:52.359 --> 00:21:53.139
 verse 13

00:21:53.139 --> 00:21:53.599
 we read

00:21:53.599 --> 00:21:54.319
 these words,

00:21:55.859 --> 00:21:56.259
 you shall

00:21:56.259 --> 00:21:57.379
 season all

00:21:57.379 --> 00:21:57.980
 your grain

00:21:57.980 --> 00:21:58.939
 offerings with

00:21:58.939 --> 00:21:59.500
 salt.

00:22:00.240 --> 00:22:00.579
 You shall

00:22:00.579 --> 00:22:01.079
 not let

00:22:01.079 --> 00:22:01.619
 the salt

00:22:01.619 --> 00:22:02.000
 of the

00:22:02.000 --> 00:22:02.419
 covenant

00:22:02.419 --> 00:22:03.559
 with your

00:22:03.559 --> 00:22:04.159
 God be

00:22:04.159 --> 00:22:04.659
 missing

00:22:04.659 --> 00:22:05.579
 from your

00:22:05.579 --> 00:22:06.000
 grain

00:22:06.000 --> 00:22:06.439
 offering.

00:22:06.579 --> 00:22:07.039
 With all

00:22:07.039 --> 00:22:07.720
 your offerings

00:22:07.720 --> 00:22:08.720
 you shall

00:22:08.720 --> 00:22:09.700
 offer salt.

00:22:09.779 --> 00:22:10.000
 So it's

00:22:10.000 --> 00:22:10.500
 not just

00:22:10.500 --> 00:22:11.839
 an ingredient

00:22:11.839 --> 00:22:12.579
 of salt,

00:22:12.579 --> 00:22:12.939
 there is

00:22:12.939 --> 00:22:13.259
 something

00:22:13.259 --> 00:22:13.879
 more to

00:22:13.879 --> 00:22:14.099
 this.

00:22:14.179 --> 00:22:14.319
 It's

00:22:14.319 --> 00:22:14.939
 the salt

00:22:14.939 --> 00:22:15.859
 of the

00:22:15.859 --> 00:22:16.279
 covenant

00:22:16.279 --> 00:22:16.899
 with your

00:22:16.899 --> 00:22:17.359
 God.

00:22:17.799 --> 00:22:18.419
 That is

00:22:18.419 --> 00:22:19.419
 not to

00:22:19.419 --> 00:22:19.980
 be missing.

00:22:21.500 --> 00:22:21.919
 Salt

00:22:21.919 --> 00:22:22.480
 is of

00:22:22.480 --> 00:22:22.939
 course a

00:22:22.939 --> 00:22:23.899
 preservative.

00:22:24.819 --> 00:22:25.159
 It is

00:22:25.159 --> 00:22:25.960
 what gives

00:22:25.960 --> 00:22:26.659
 longevity

00:22:26.659 --> 00:22:28.099
 to food.

00:22:29.059 --> 00:22:29.259
 And the

00:22:29.259 --> 00:22:29.899
 people here

00:22:29.899 --> 00:22:30.460
 in Moses'

00:22:30.720 --> 00:22:31.000
 day would

00:22:31.000 --> 00:22:31.220
 have been

00:22:31.220 --> 00:22:32.599
 quite familiar

00:22:32.599 --> 00:22:33.399
 with that,

00:22:34.039 --> 00:22:35.039
 that salt

00:22:35.039 --> 00:22:35.619
 was able

00:22:35.619 --> 00:22:36.339
 to keep,

00:22:37.079 --> 00:22:37.859
 but only

00:22:37.859 --> 00:22:38.799
 for a

00:22:38.799 --> 00:22:39.220
 time.

00:22:39.220 --> 00:22:39.279
 time.

00:22:40.660 --> 00:22:41.279
 But what

00:22:41.279 --> 00:22:41.860
 we see

00:22:41.860 --> 00:22:42.380
 here is

00:22:42.380 --> 00:22:42.980
 that behind

00:22:42.980 --> 00:22:43.980
 this offering

00:22:43.980 --> 00:22:44.440
 and all

00:22:44.440 --> 00:22:44.960
 the offerings

00:22:44.960 --> 00:22:45.380
 you could

00:22:45.380 --> 00:22:45.759
 see,

00:22:46.500 --> 00:22:47.000
 is behind

00:22:47.000 --> 00:22:47.460
 it all

00:22:47.460 --> 00:22:47.880
 is that

00:22:47.880 --> 00:22:48.579
 sense of

00:22:48.579 --> 00:22:49.240
 covenant

00:22:49.240 --> 00:22:49.940
 pledge

00:22:49.940 --> 00:22:51.259
 with God.

00:22:52.700 --> 00:22:53.440
 That he

00:22:53.440 --> 00:22:53.799
 is the

00:22:53.799 --> 00:22:54.960
 one who

00:22:54.960 --> 00:22:55.720
 provides.

00:22:57.759 --> 00:22:58.259
 That he

00:22:58.259 --> 00:22:58.519
 is the

00:22:58.519 --> 00:22:58.980
 one who

00:22:58.980 --> 00:22:59.779
 preserves

00:22:59.779 --> 00:23:01.059
 his covenant

00:23:01.059 --> 00:23:01.480
 with his

00:23:01.480 --> 00:23:01.920
 people.

00:23:02.860 --> 00:23:03.980
 Because we

00:23:03.980 --> 00:23:04.680
 break it.

00:23:05.940 --> 00:23:06.880
 We fail

00:23:06.880 --> 00:23:07.440
 in it

00:23:07.440 --> 00:23:08.520
 again and

00:23:08.520 --> 00:23:08.900
 again.

00:23:09.900 --> 00:23:10.420
 And that's

00:23:10.420 --> 00:23:10.780
 the whole

00:23:10.780 --> 00:23:11.420
 reason as

00:23:11.420 --> 00:23:11.800
 you're looking

00:23:11.800 --> 00:23:12.580
 through Leviticus

00:23:12.580 --> 00:23:13.060
 and indeed

00:23:13.060 --> 00:23:13.500
 the Old

00:23:13.500 --> 00:23:14.000
 Testament,

00:23:14.160 --> 00:23:14.420
 when you're

00:23:14.420 --> 00:23:15.380
 seeing the

00:23:15.380 --> 00:23:16.740
 whole offerings

00:23:16.740 --> 00:23:17.740
 and sacrificial

00:23:17.740 --> 00:23:18.520
 system,

00:23:18.900 --> 00:23:20.120
 it's happening

00:23:20.120 --> 00:23:20.900
 all the

00:23:20.900 --> 00:23:21.320
 time.

00:23:22.000 --> 00:23:22.500
 It's

00:23:22.500 --> 00:23:23.160
 ongoing

00:23:23.160 --> 00:23:24.300
 every day.

00:23:25.240 --> 00:23:25.720
 It's just a

00:23:25.720 --> 00:23:26.340
 part of their

00:23:26.340 --> 00:23:27.280
 everyday life.

00:23:27.620 --> 00:23:28.220
 Because there's

00:23:28.220 --> 00:23:29.180
 never a point

00:23:29.180 --> 00:23:29.600
 where they can

00:23:29.600 --> 00:23:30.920
 say,

00:23:31.340 --> 00:23:32.280
 we've made

00:23:32.280 --> 00:23:32.520
 it.

00:23:33.820 --> 00:23:34.520
 We've

00:23:34.520 --> 00:23:35.260
 achieved it.

00:23:35.320 --> 00:23:35.580
 We've

00:23:35.580 --> 00:23:36.640
 pleased God.

00:23:36.880 --> 00:23:38.020
 Because they

00:23:38.020 --> 00:23:38.820
 are constantly

00:23:38.820 --> 00:23:40.340
 failing God.

00:23:41.060 --> 00:23:41.740
 Just as we

00:23:41.740 --> 00:23:42.240
 are, just as

00:23:42.240 --> 00:23:42.820
 you are, just

00:23:42.820 --> 00:23:43.960
 as I am, we

00:23:43.960 --> 00:23:44.780
 are constantly

00:23:44.780 --> 00:23:46.380
 failing God.

00:23:47.040 --> 00:23:48.300
 We sin in

00:23:48.300 --> 00:23:49.480
 thought, word

00:23:49.480 --> 00:23:50.880
 and deed on

00:23:50.880 --> 00:23:51.300
 a daily

00:23:51.300 --> 00:23:51.880
 basis.

00:23:52.840 --> 00:23:53.600
 So we don't

00:23:53.600 --> 00:23:54.440
 just confess

00:23:54.440 --> 00:23:55.220
 our sins

00:23:55.220 --> 00:23:55.760
 once.

00:23:56.760 --> 00:23:57.420
 We have to

00:23:57.420 --> 00:23:58.140
 confess our

00:23:58.140 --> 00:23:59.240
 sin on a

00:23:59.240 --> 00:24:00.120
 daily basis.

00:24:01.700 --> 00:24:02.520
 But we are

00:24:02.520 --> 00:24:03.220
 being reminded

00:24:03.220 --> 00:24:03.940
 here that as

00:24:03.940 --> 00:24:04.560
 they are bringing

00:24:04.560 --> 00:24:05.660
 their grain

00:24:05.660 --> 00:24:06.120
 offering,

00:24:06.119 --> 00:24:07.679
 that behind

00:24:07.679 --> 00:24:08.500
 it all is

00:24:08.500 --> 00:24:09.239
 that sense

00:24:09.239 --> 00:24:10.219
 of relationship,

00:24:10.459 --> 00:24:11.079
 that covenant

00:24:11.079 --> 00:24:12.719
 with God.

00:24:13.679 --> 00:24:14.539
 The salt

00:24:14.539 --> 00:24:15.419
 of the

00:24:15.419 --> 00:24:15.859
 covenant

00:24:15.859 --> 00:24:16.799
 with your

00:24:16.799 --> 00:24:17.399
 God is

00:24:17.399 --> 00:24:18.119
 not to

00:24:18.119 --> 00:24:18.699
 be missing.

00:24:20.259 --> 00:24:21.000
 There is

00:24:21.000 --> 00:24:21.219
 this

00:24:21.219 --> 00:24:21.939
 preserving.

00:24:23.659 --> 00:24:24.119
 And that is

00:24:24.119 --> 00:24:24.619
 what we have

00:24:24.619 --> 00:24:25.479
 ongoing as we

00:24:25.479 --> 00:24:25.919
 look to the

00:24:25.919 --> 00:24:26.399
 Lord's

00:24:26.399 --> 00:24:26.939
 Supper as

00:24:26.939 --> 00:24:27.299
 well.

00:24:28.139 --> 00:24:29.199
 We take

00:24:29.199 --> 00:24:30.719
 it, we do

00:24:30.719 --> 00:24:31.419
 it in remembrance

00:24:31.419 --> 00:24:32.419
 of Him and we

00:24:32.419 --> 00:24:33.539
 keep doing it

00:24:33.539 --> 00:24:35.259
 until He

00:24:35.259 --> 00:24:35.759
 come.

00:24:37.000 --> 00:24:37.920
 Do this in

00:24:37.920 --> 00:24:38.759
 remembrance of

00:24:38.759 --> 00:24:40.240
 me until I

00:24:40.240 --> 00:24:40.619
 come.

00:24:41.980 --> 00:24:42.519
 It is

00:24:42.519 --> 00:24:43.599
 preserved for

00:24:43.599 --> 00:24:43.799
 us.

00:24:43.879 --> 00:24:44.139
 It's that

00:24:44.139 --> 00:24:44.799
 relationship,

00:24:44.980 --> 00:24:45.559
 that covenant

00:24:45.559 --> 00:24:47.220
 relationship with

00:24:47.220 --> 00:24:47.700
 God.

00:24:48.779 --> 00:24:49.279
 And when you

00:24:49.279 --> 00:24:50.240
 look forward

00:24:50.240 --> 00:24:51.500
 into the New

00:24:51.500 --> 00:24:52.240
 Testament and

00:24:52.240 --> 00:24:52.779
 when you see

00:24:52.779 --> 00:24:54.440
 Jesus preparing

00:24:54.440 --> 00:24:55.399
 to go to the

00:24:55.399 --> 00:24:56.119
 cross and as

00:24:56.119 --> 00:24:58.960
 He comes to

00:24:58.960 --> 00:24:59.920
 institute the

00:24:59.920 --> 00:25:00.539
 Lord's

00:25:00.539 --> 00:25:02.580
 Supper, when

00:25:02.580 --> 00:25:03.000
 you look at

00:25:03.000 --> 00:25:03.720
 that, what

00:25:03.720 --> 00:25:04.360
 is He doing?

00:25:05.360 --> 00:25:06.160
 He gives

00:25:06.160 --> 00:25:07.640
 bread and

00:25:07.640 --> 00:25:08.080
 He gives

00:25:08.080 --> 00:25:08.660
 wine.

00:25:11.100 --> 00:25:11.840
 There is

00:25:11.840 --> 00:25:12.860
 grain involved

00:25:12.860 --> 00:25:13.460
 in that.

00:25:13.980 --> 00:25:14.880
 Bread is

00:25:14.880 --> 00:25:15.539
 part of what

00:25:15.539 --> 00:25:16.060
 we take,

00:25:16.140 --> 00:25:16.620
 God willing,

00:25:16.759 --> 00:25:17.120
 tomorrow.

00:25:18.120 --> 00:25:18.460
 We are

00:25:18.460 --> 00:25:19.519
 seeing that

00:25:19.519 --> 00:25:20.080
 He is the

00:25:20.080 --> 00:25:21.500
 fulfillment of

00:25:21.500 --> 00:25:22.100
 this grain

00:25:22.100 --> 00:25:23.360
 offering, that

00:25:23.360 --> 00:25:23.720
 He is the

00:25:23.720 --> 00:25:24.980
 fulfillment of

00:25:24.980 --> 00:25:25.759
 this covenant,

00:25:26.480 --> 00:25:27.380
 that He is the

00:25:27.380 --> 00:25:28.740
 one who keeps

00:25:28.740 --> 00:25:29.500
 His people.

00:25:29.920 --> 00:25:30.580
 He is the

00:25:30.580 --> 00:25:31.420
 one who gives

00:25:31.420 --> 00:25:32.720
 that ultimate

00:25:32.720 --> 00:25:33.759
 sacrifice.

00:25:35.320 --> 00:25:36.039
 We know that

00:25:36.039 --> 00:25:36.580
 without the

00:25:36.580 --> 00:25:37.160
 shedding of

00:25:37.160 --> 00:25:38.220
 blood, there

00:25:38.220 --> 00:25:38.600
 is no

00:25:38.600 --> 00:25:39.460
 forgiveness of

00:25:39.460 --> 00:25:39.900
 sin.

00:25:41.240 --> 00:25:41.779
 But our

00:25:41.779 --> 00:25:42.779
 whole life is

00:25:42.779 --> 00:25:44.279
 dependent on

00:25:44.279 --> 00:25:44.740
 God and

00:25:44.740 --> 00:25:46.019
 God, on

00:25:46.019 --> 00:25:46.580
 Christ, and

00:25:46.580 --> 00:25:47.480
 Christ gave

00:25:47.480 --> 00:25:49.240
 His body and

00:25:49.240 --> 00:25:50.560
 His blood for

00:25:50.560 --> 00:25:51.360
 His people,

00:25:52.019 --> 00:25:52.820
 that we might

00:25:52.820 --> 00:25:53.580
 have life

00:25:53.580 --> 00:25:55.039
 through Him.

00:25:56.320 --> 00:25:56.960
 He gives

00:25:56.960 --> 00:25:58.380
 every provision

00:25:58.380 --> 00:25:59.539
 for us.

00:25:59.920 --> 00:26:01.180
 He preserves

00:26:01.180 --> 00:26:02.360
 His people.

00:26:02.480 --> 00:26:03.140
 He keeps

00:26:03.140 --> 00:26:04.519
 His people

00:26:04.519 --> 00:26:05.240
 because He is

00:26:05.240 --> 00:26:05.680
 in that

00:26:05.680 --> 00:26:06.539
 relationship

00:26:06.539 --> 00:26:07.759
 with His

00:26:07.759 --> 00:26:09.920
 people, a

00:26:09.920 --> 00:26:11.300
 covenant that

00:26:11.300 --> 00:26:12.140
 He will not

00:26:12.140 --> 00:26:12.779
 break.

00:26:15.259 --> 00:26:16.200
 And so as we

00:26:16.200 --> 00:26:17.060
 come tomorrow,

00:26:17.180 --> 00:26:17.660
 God willing,

00:26:18.420 --> 00:26:19.320
 to remember,

00:26:20.279 --> 00:26:20.940
 it is because

00:26:20.940 --> 00:26:21.980
 it is preserved

00:26:21.980 --> 00:26:22.759
 for us.

00:26:22.759 --> 00:26:23.759
 God willing, a

00:26:23.759 --> 00:26:23.759


00:26:23.759 --> 00:26:24.759
 God willing, a

00:26:24.759 --> 00:26:25.759
 covenant that

00:26:25.759 --> 00:26:26.519
 is ongoing.

00:26:27.640 --> 00:26:29.720
 Do this in

00:26:29.720 --> 00:26:30.759
 remembrance of

00:26:31.319 --> 00:26:31.640
 me.

00:26:31.640 --> 00:26:31.700
 me.

00:26:34.200 --> 00:26:35.520
 The fourth and

00:26:35.520 --> 00:26:36.420
 final thing we

00:26:36.420 --> 00:26:37.980
 see here is

00:26:37.980 --> 00:26:38.860
 the assurance

00:26:38.860 --> 00:26:39.980
 that it

00:26:39.980 --> 00:26:40.400
 gives.

00:26:42.560 --> 00:26:43.520
 As the

00:26:43.520 --> 00:26:44.420
 people brought

00:26:44.420 --> 00:26:45.540
 their offerings,

00:26:46.480 --> 00:26:47.540
 what were they

00:26:47.540 --> 00:26:48.500
 looking for?

00:26:48.500 --> 00:26:51.720
 they were looking

00:26:51.720 --> 00:26:53.420
 to please God.

00:26:54.799 --> 00:26:55.079
 They were

00:26:55.079 --> 00:26:55.519
 looking for

00:26:55.519 --> 00:26:56.480
 their offering,

00:26:56.599 --> 00:26:57.500
 their sacrifice

00:26:57.500 --> 00:26:58.279
 to be

00:26:58.279 --> 00:26:59.819
 acceptable to

00:26:59.819 --> 00:27:00.299
 God.

00:27:01.420 --> 00:27:02.079
 Through the

00:27:02.079 --> 00:27:02.759
 priest, they

00:27:02.759 --> 00:27:03.359
 would bring it

00:27:03.359 --> 00:27:04.440
 and offer it

00:27:04.440 --> 00:27:05.220
 up to God.

00:27:07.420 --> 00:27:08.160
 And God

00:27:08.160 --> 00:27:09.059
 would bless it

00:27:09.059 --> 00:27:09.980
 if it was

00:27:09.980 --> 00:27:10.859
 brought right.

00:27:12.220 --> 00:27:12.920
 But if they

00:27:12.920 --> 00:27:13.759
 didn't bring the

00:27:13.759 --> 00:27:14.380
 best,

00:27:15.380 --> 00:27:15.880
 if they didn't

00:27:15.880 --> 00:27:16.759
 bring it all,

00:27:16.759 --> 00:27:18.140
 if they brought

00:27:18.140 --> 00:27:18.539
 it in the

00:27:18.539 --> 00:27:19.440
 wrong spirit,

00:27:19.559 --> 00:27:19.799
 with the

00:27:19.799 --> 00:27:20.539
 wrong attitude,

00:27:21.519 --> 00:27:22.059
 then God

00:27:22.059 --> 00:27:22.839
 was not able

00:27:22.839 --> 00:27:23.460
 to bless.

00:27:24.960 --> 00:27:25.720
 But what they

00:27:25.720 --> 00:27:26.299
 are looking for

00:27:26.299 --> 00:27:27.160
 here is bringing

00:27:27.160 --> 00:27:28.720
 that best of

00:27:28.720 --> 00:27:29.539
 what they have,

00:27:30.400 --> 00:27:31.019
 that God

00:27:31.019 --> 00:27:32.019
 would bless it

00:27:32.019 --> 00:27:33.720
 and give them

00:27:33.720 --> 00:27:34.700
 that assurance

00:27:34.700 --> 00:27:36.579
 that he is

00:27:36.579 --> 00:27:37.180
 with them,

00:27:38.180 --> 00:27:39.460
 that he will

00:27:39.460 --> 00:27:40.119
 not leave

00:27:40.119 --> 00:27:40.400
 them,

00:27:41.420 --> 00:27:41.759
 that he will

00:27:41.759 --> 00:27:42.519
 not turn his

00:27:42.519 --> 00:27:43.839
 back away

00:27:43.839 --> 00:27:44.539
 from them.

00:27:45.640 --> 00:27:46.180
 And so what

00:27:46.180 --> 00:27:47.060
 you see here

00:27:47.060 --> 00:27:48.080
 is they are

00:27:48.080 --> 00:27:48.759
 bringing this

00:27:48.759 --> 00:27:49.220
 offering,

00:27:49.779 --> 00:27:50.060
 they are

00:27:50.060 --> 00:27:50.480
 bringing it

00:27:50.480 --> 00:27:50.820
 to the

00:27:50.820 --> 00:27:51.299
 priests,

00:27:51.539 --> 00:27:52.019
 the priests

00:27:52.019 --> 00:27:52.480
 are then

00:27:52.480 --> 00:27:53.460
 offering it

00:27:53.460 --> 00:27:54.279
 up to

00:27:54.279 --> 00:27:54.820
 the Lord.

00:27:57.299 --> 00:27:57.640
 And how

00:27:57.640 --> 00:27:58.019
 do we

00:27:58.019 --> 00:27:59.240
 come in

00:27:59.240 --> 00:27:59.600
 worship?

00:27:59.720 --> 00:27:59.960
 What are

00:27:59.960 --> 00:28:00.460
 we looking

00:28:00.460 --> 00:28:01.480
 for as

00:28:01.480 --> 00:28:02.120
 we come

00:28:02.120 --> 00:28:03.100
 in worship,

00:28:03.240 --> 00:28:03.560
 as we

00:28:03.560 --> 00:28:04.100
 offer up

00:28:04.100 --> 00:28:05.039
 a right

00:28:05.039 --> 00:28:05.779
 worship to

00:28:05.779 --> 00:28:06.060
 God?

00:28:06.120 --> 00:28:06.380
 What are

00:28:06.380 --> 00:28:06.900
 we looking

00:28:06.900 --> 00:28:07.420
 for?

00:28:08.420 --> 00:28:09.039
 What are

00:28:09.039 --> 00:28:09.360
 we looking

00:28:09.360 --> 00:28:10.220
 for in

00:28:10.220 --> 00:28:10.740
 the Lord's

00:28:10.740 --> 00:28:10.900
 Supper?

00:28:11.000 --> 00:28:11.200
 What are

00:28:11.200 --> 00:28:11.519
 you looking

00:28:11.519 --> 00:28:12.000
 for in

00:28:12.000 --> 00:28:12.860
 that tomorrow?

00:28:12.859 --> 00:28:15.799
 that sense

00:28:15.799 --> 00:28:17.399
 of assurance,

00:28:18.519 --> 00:28:19.799
 that sense

00:28:19.799 --> 00:28:21.279
 of peace,

00:28:22.139 --> 00:28:23.399
 that sense

00:28:23.399 --> 00:28:23.799
 of being

00:28:23.799 --> 00:28:24.599
 accepted

00:28:24.599 --> 00:28:26.279
 by God.

00:28:27.419 --> 00:28:28.379
 And how

00:28:28.379 --> 00:28:28.779
 do we

00:28:28.779 --> 00:28:29.599
 find that?

00:28:31.199 --> 00:28:31.559
 Well, it

00:28:31.559 --> 00:28:32.279
 is coming

00:28:32.279 --> 00:28:33.459
 through our

00:28:33.459 --> 00:28:34.039
 priest,

00:28:34.799 --> 00:28:35.559
 who is the

00:28:35.559 --> 00:28:36.839
 Lord Jesus

00:28:36.839 --> 00:28:37.559
 Christ.

00:28:37.559 --> 00:28:37.759
 Christ.

00:28:39.319 --> 00:28:39.859
 When you

00:28:39.859 --> 00:28:40.159
 look at,

00:28:40.399 --> 00:28:41.039
 for example,

00:28:41.179 --> 00:28:41.919
 verse 10

00:28:41.919 --> 00:28:42.299
 here,

00:28:43.839 --> 00:28:44.659
 the priests

00:28:44.659 --> 00:28:45.500
 partook in

00:28:45.500 --> 00:28:46.059
 this grain

00:28:46.059 --> 00:28:46.460
 offering.

00:28:46.579 --> 00:28:46.899
 The rest

00:28:46.899 --> 00:28:47.419
 of the grain

00:28:47.419 --> 00:28:47.740
 offering

00:28:47.740 --> 00:28:48.139
 shall be

00:28:48.139 --> 00:28:48.679
 for Aaron

00:28:48.679 --> 00:28:49.099
 and his

00:28:49.099 --> 00:28:49.539
 sons.

00:28:50.059 --> 00:28:50.460
 It is a

00:28:50.460 --> 00:28:51.059
 most holy

00:28:51.059 --> 00:28:51.740
 part of

00:28:51.740 --> 00:28:52.399
 the Lord's

00:28:52.399 --> 00:28:53.220
 food

00:28:53.220 --> 00:28:54.000
 offerings.

00:28:55.440 --> 00:28:56.679
 The priests

00:28:56.679 --> 00:28:57.679
 were approving

00:28:57.679 --> 00:28:58.919
 of what they

00:28:58.919 --> 00:28:59.440
 were given,

00:28:59.720 --> 00:29:00.059
 and then they

00:29:00.059 --> 00:29:00.619
 were offering

00:29:00.619 --> 00:29:01.480
 this, or

00:29:01.480 --> 00:29:01.879
 they'd offered

00:29:01.879 --> 00:29:02.440
 it to God,

00:29:02.480 --> 00:29:02.720
 and they

00:29:02.720 --> 00:29:03.240
 took it

00:29:03.240 --> 00:29:04.240
 themselves.

00:29:05.759 --> 00:29:06.279
 There's that

00:29:06.279 --> 00:29:06.940
 sense of

00:29:06.940 --> 00:29:07.940
 this offering

00:29:07.940 --> 00:29:09.400
 is acceptable.

00:29:10.400 --> 00:29:11.140
 This offering

00:29:11.140 --> 00:29:12.640
 is right.

00:29:14.960 --> 00:29:15.460
 And when we

00:29:15.460 --> 00:29:15.900
 look at

00:29:15.900 --> 00:29:16.700
 Christ

00:29:16.700 --> 00:29:17.559
 ourselves,

00:29:18.680 --> 00:29:19.440
 we look at

00:29:19.440 --> 00:29:20.160
 Christ and

00:29:20.160 --> 00:29:20.820
 his role

00:29:20.820 --> 00:29:22.240
 of a priest,

00:29:23.500 --> 00:29:23.920
 offering

00:29:23.920 --> 00:29:25.380
 himself up

00:29:25.380 --> 00:29:25.840
 as a

00:29:25.840 --> 00:29:26.519
 sacrifice,

00:29:26.640 --> 00:29:27.120
 as it says,

00:29:27.200 --> 00:29:28.039
 to satisfy

00:29:28.039 --> 00:29:29.640
 divine justice

00:29:29.640 --> 00:29:30.380
 and reconcile

00:29:30.380 --> 00:29:32.080
 us to

00:29:32.080 --> 00:29:32.600
 God.

00:29:33.500 --> 00:29:34.100
 That is what

00:29:34.100 --> 00:29:34.900
 he is doing,

00:29:35.000 --> 00:29:35.480
 has done

00:29:35.480 --> 00:29:36.820
 for us.

00:29:36.940 --> 00:29:38.799
 And so

00:29:38.799 --> 00:29:39.299
 where is

00:29:39.299 --> 00:29:40.860
 our assurance

00:29:40.860 --> 00:29:41.600
 found?

00:29:43.220 --> 00:29:44.120
 It's not

00:29:44.120 --> 00:29:44.759
 in what we

00:29:44.759 --> 00:29:45.519
 can bring

00:29:45.519 --> 00:29:46.799
 to God.

00:29:47.840 --> 00:29:48.640
 It's in

00:29:48.640 --> 00:29:48.900
 giving

00:29:48.900 --> 00:29:49.680
 ourselves

00:29:49.680 --> 00:29:50.960
 to him.

00:29:52.620 --> 00:29:53.440
 It is

00:29:53.440 --> 00:29:53.700
 putting

00:29:53.700 --> 00:29:54.279
 ourselves

00:29:54.279 --> 00:29:55.500
 into his

00:29:55.500 --> 00:29:56.100
 hands

00:29:56.100 --> 00:29:58.200
 to come

00:29:58.200 --> 00:30:00.019
 with Christ

00:30:00.019 --> 00:30:01.160
 in view,

00:30:01.940 --> 00:30:03.000
 looking

00:30:03.000 --> 00:30:04.539
 to him,

00:30:04.539 --> 00:30:06.880
 to bow

00:30:06.880 --> 00:30:07.880
 humbly

00:30:07.880 --> 00:30:09.240
 before him,

00:30:09.900 --> 00:30:11.200
 to worship

00:30:11.200 --> 00:30:12.380
 with that

00:30:12.380 --> 00:30:13.240
 sense of

00:30:13.240 --> 00:30:14.339
 adoration,

00:30:16.339 --> 00:30:17.619
 that we

00:30:17.619 --> 00:30:18.180
 might find

00:30:18.180 --> 00:30:19.119
 assurance

00:30:19.119 --> 00:30:20.339
 of the

00:30:20.339 --> 00:30:20.799
 forgiveness

00:30:20.799 --> 00:30:21.420
 of our

00:30:21.420 --> 00:30:21.819
 sin,

00:30:22.460 --> 00:30:23.599
 of the

00:30:23.599 --> 00:30:24.259
 love of

00:30:24.259 --> 00:30:24.680
 God

00:30:24.680 --> 00:30:25.500
 to us

00:30:25.500 --> 00:30:26.339
 through

00:30:26.339 --> 00:30:26.619
 his

00:30:26.619 --> 00:30:27.039
 Son,

00:30:27.599 --> 00:30:27.960
 Jesus

00:30:27.960 --> 00:30:28.660
 Christ,

00:30:30.400 --> 00:30:30.920
 to have

00:30:30.920 --> 00:30:31.700
 that assurance

00:30:31.700 --> 00:30:32.539
 of knowing

00:30:32.539 --> 00:30:33.779
 the promises

00:30:33.779 --> 00:30:34.640
 of God,

00:30:35.819 --> 00:30:37.120
 the fulfillment

00:30:37.120 --> 00:30:38.019
 of his

00:30:38.019 --> 00:30:39.039
 scriptures to

00:30:39.039 --> 00:30:39.240
 us,

00:30:39.299 --> 00:30:39.840
 that God

00:30:39.840 --> 00:30:40.720
 so loved

00:30:40.720 --> 00:30:41.400
 the world

00:30:41.400 --> 00:30:42.319
 that he

00:30:42.319 --> 00:30:43.019
 gave his

00:30:43.019 --> 00:30:43.900
 only Son,

00:30:45.120 --> 00:30:45.759
 that whoever

00:30:45.759 --> 00:30:47.120
 believes in

00:30:47.120 --> 00:30:48.779
 him should

00:30:48.779 --> 00:30:49.559
 not perish

00:30:49.559 --> 00:30:50.400
 but have

00:30:50.400 --> 00:30:50.960
 everlasting

00:30:51.680 --> 00:30:52.319
 life.

00:30:52.319 --> 00:30:54.019
 when you

00:30:54.019 --> 00:30:54.399
 think of

00:30:54.399 --> 00:30:55.039
 these words

00:30:55.039 --> 00:30:55.460
 in light

00:30:55.460 --> 00:30:55.740
 of where

00:30:55.740 --> 00:30:56.419
 the people

00:30:56.419 --> 00:30:57.259
 were here,

00:30:58.339 --> 00:30:58.839
 they know

00:30:58.839 --> 00:30:59.339
 the love

00:30:59.339 --> 00:30:59.960
 of God

00:30:59.960 --> 00:31:01.960
 because God

00:31:01.960 --> 00:31:03.079
 has remembered

00:31:03.079 --> 00:31:05.399
 them and

00:31:05.399 --> 00:31:05.919
 so they

00:31:05.919 --> 00:31:06.799
 are to

00:31:06.799 --> 00:31:07.379
 remember

00:31:07.379 --> 00:31:08.079
 him.

00:31:09.379 --> 00:31:10.139
 They know

00:31:10.139 --> 00:31:11.259
 the goodness

00:31:11.259 --> 00:31:12.679
 of God.

00:31:13.679 --> 00:31:14.159
 They are to

00:31:14.159 --> 00:31:14.720
 come and

00:31:14.720 --> 00:31:15.960
 give to

00:31:15.960 --> 00:31:16.980
 him as

00:31:16.980 --> 00:31:17.359
 he has

00:31:17.359 --> 00:31:18.379
 given to

00:31:18.379 --> 00:31:18.859
 us.

00:31:19.599 --> 00:31:20.299
 He gave

00:31:20.299 --> 00:31:21.519
 his Son.

00:31:22.319 --> 00:31:23.319
 and they

00:31:23.319 --> 00:31:23.619
 are to

00:31:23.619 --> 00:31:24.159
 look to

00:31:24.159 --> 00:31:24.500
 him.

00:31:25.159 --> 00:31:25.599
 We are

00:31:25.599 --> 00:31:25.960
 to look

00:31:25.960 --> 00:31:26.480
 to him

00:31:26.480 --> 00:31:27.419
 with that

00:31:27.419 --> 00:31:28.179
 sense of

00:31:28.179 --> 00:31:28.899
 thanksgiving

00:31:28.899 --> 00:31:30.659
 that he

00:31:30.659 --> 00:31:31.259
 has remembered

00:31:31.259 --> 00:31:31.919
 us in that

00:31:31.919 --> 00:31:32.279
 way and

00:31:32.279 --> 00:31:32.700
 come

00:31:32.700 --> 00:31:34.299
 believing

00:31:34.299 --> 00:31:37.000
 and then

00:31:37.000 --> 00:31:37.460
 we have

00:31:37.460 --> 00:31:38.379
 that assurance

00:31:38.379 --> 00:31:40.299
 of eternal

00:31:40.299 --> 00:31:41.139
 life

00:31:41.139 --> 00:31:42.839
 from him.

00:31:44.379 --> 00:31:45.059
 God

00:31:45.059 --> 00:31:46.200
 has been

00:31:46.200 --> 00:31:47.119
 good to

00:31:47.119 --> 00:31:47.579
 us.

00:31:48.819 --> 00:31:49.159
 He is

00:31:49.159 --> 00:31:49.559
 due

00:31:49.559 --> 00:31:50.359
 our

00:31:50.359 --> 00:31:51.159
 thanksgiving.

00:31:51.160 --> 00:31:52.040
 he is

00:31:52.040 --> 00:31:52.500
 due

00:31:52.500 --> 00:31:53.019
 our

00:31:53.019 --> 00:31:53.500
 worship,

00:31:53.620 --> 00:31:54.040
 a worship

00:31:54.040 --> 00:31:54.420
 that is

00:31:54.420 --> 00:31:55.519
 a sacrifice

00:31:55.519 --> 00:31:57.019
 pleasing

00:31:57.019 --> 00:31:58.259
 to him.

00:31:59.440 --> 00:31:59.920
 And why

00:31:59.920 --> 00:32:00.320
 would we

00:32:00.320 --> 00:32:00.759
 not?

00:32:01.980 --> 00:32:02.519
 When as the

00:32:02.519 --> 00:32:03.040
 hymn writer

00:32:03.040 --> 00:32:03.540
 says,

00:32:03.600 --> 00:32:03.980
 and when I

00:32:03.980 --> 00:32:05.100
 think that

00:32:05.100 --> 00:32:05.800
 God his

00:32:05.800 --> 00:32:06.420
 Son not

00:32:06.420 --> 00:32:07.360
 sparing sent

00:32:07.360 --> 00:32:07.900
 him to

00:32:07.900 --> 00:32:08.300
 die,

00:32:08.720 --> 00:32:09.519
 I scarce

00:32:09.519 --> 00:32:10.220
 can take

00:32:10.220 --> 00:32:10.640
 it in,

00:32:11.200 --> 00:32:11.820
 that on the

00:32:11.820 --> 00:32:12.620
 cross my

00:32:12.620 --> 00:32:13.140
 burden

00:32:13.140 --> 00:32:14.220
 gladly bearing,

00:32:14.860 --> 00:32:15.500
 he bled

00:32:15.500 --> 00:32:16.100
 and died

00:32:16.100 --> 00:32:16.900
 to take

00:32:16.900 --> 00:32:17.620
 away my

00:32:17.620 --> 00:32:18.040
 sin.

00:32:18.039 --> 00:32:19.720
 when Christ

00:32:19.720 --> 00:32:20.619
 shall come

00:32:20.619 --> 00:32:21.659
 with shout

00:32:21.659 --> 00:32:22.579
 of acclamation

00:32:22.579 --> 00:32:23.139
 and take

00:32:23.139 --> 00:32:23.639
 me home,

00:32:23.759 --> 00:32:24.399
 what joy

00:32:24.399 --> 00:32:25.500
 shall fill

00:32:25.500 --> 00:32:26.139
 my heart.

00:32:26.240 --> 00:32:26.680
 Then shall

00:32:26.680 --> 00:32:27.259
 I bow

00:32:27.259 --> 00:32:28.700
 in humble

00:32:28.700 --> 00:32:29.819
 adoration

00:32:29.819 --> 00:32:31.099
 and there

00:32:31.099 --> 00:32:31.879
 proclaim,

00:32:32.339 --> 00:32:33.019
 my God,

00:32:33.559 --> 00:32:34.480
 how great

00:32:34.480 --> 00:32:35.519
 thou art.

00:32:36.680 --> 00:32:37.440
 Bow with

00:32:37.440 --> 00:32:38.119
 humble

00:32:38.119 --> 00:32:39.680
 adoration.

00:32:40.680 --> 00:32:41.659
 That is

00:32:41.659 --> 00:32:42.000
 what we

00:32:42.000 --> 00:32:42.579
 are to do,

00:32:43.319 --> 00:32:44.339
 to come

00:32:44.339 --> 00:32:45.539
 with that

00:32:45.539 --> 00:32:46.019
 worship

00:32:46.019 --> 00:32:47.700
 of humility

00:32:47.700 --> 00:32:49.420
 and adoration

00:32:49.420 --> 00:32:50.980
 and dependence

00:32:50.980 --> 00:32:52.519
 on him,

00:32:53.019 --> 00:32:53.359
 saying,

00:32:53.579 --> 00:32:53.920
 not about

00:32:53.920 --> 00:32:54.579
 us,

00:32:55.639 --> 00:32:56.279
 but my

00:32:56.279 --> 00:32:56.819
 God,

00:32:57.019 --> 00:32:58.299
 how great

00:32:58.299 --> 00:32:59.639
 thou art.

00:33:00.619 --> 00:33:00.960
 And so

00:33:00.960 --> 00:33:01.460
 may our

00:33:01.460 --> 00:33:01.980
 worship,

00:33:03.019 --> 00:33:03.759
 simple as

00:33:03.759 --> 00:33:04.539
 it may seem,

00:33:04.639 --> 00:33:05.279
 as this grain

00:33:05.279 --> 00:33:05.940
 offering might

00:33:05.940 --> 00:33:06.379
 seem,

00:33:07.200 --> 00:33:07.720
 may our

00:33:07.720 --> 00:33:08.559
 worship be

00:33:08.559 --> 00:33:09.879
 filled with

00:33:09.879 --> 00:33:10.740
 that holiness

00:33:10.740 --> 00:33:12.079
 and that

00:33:12.079 --> 00:33:12.700
 aroma,

00:33:13.440 --> 00:33:14.259
 that richness

00:33:14.259 --> 00:33:15.539
 of thanksgiving

00:33:15.539 --> 00:33:16.259
 to him

00:33:16.259 --> 00:33:17.599
 for all

00:33:17.599 --> 00:33:18.579
 that he

00:33:18.579 --> 00:33:19.119
 has done.

00:33:19.819 --> 00:33:20.319
 Let us

00:33:20.319 --> 00:33:20.599
 pray.
