The day of atonement foreshadowed, in type, the sin-atoning work of the Lord Jesus Christ for God\u2019s true Israel. The chapter begins \u201cAnd the LORD spake unto Moses.\u201d In order for sinners to approach God in his Way, the LORD must speak into the heart he has made new. God teaches his children what he taught Moses. Before Adam sinned he lived in communion with God; but after he broke God\u2019s commandment, he and all mankind was separated from God. In Mosaic law, God declares that no man can come to God except through the High Priest, once a year, not without blood. Christ is the High Priest. He offered one sacrifice for sin forever. He offered his own blood. God\u2019s wrath must be propitiated. Justice must be satisfied. Sin must be punished. The day of atonement looked forward to that one offering by which Christ Jesus accomplished full satisfaction for God\u2019s elect, making them fully, freely accepted of God in Christ forever.<\/p>\n
God entrusted the whole nation to one representative man. So it is that God entrusted the whole work of atonement for his entire people into the hands of Christ Jesus his Son (Hebrews 1: 3<\/a>.) Faith trusts Christ to have already done all that is necessary to make you accepted of God forever (Read carefully\u00a0Hebrews 8: 1<\/a>,\u00a02<\/a>;\u00a09:22-28<\/a>;\u00a010: 14-22<\/a>.)\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Clay Curtis.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" The day of atonement foreshadowed, in type, the sin-atoning work of the Lord Jesus Christ for God\u2019s true Israel.
