The Wave: The Fellowship Offering

Wednesday Evening January 12, 2005 Leviticus 7:11-38 “The Wave” Dr. J. Ligon Duncan III If you have your Bibles, I'd invite you to turn with me to Leviticus, chapter 7. We began working through the Book of Leviticus last summer, and our study has moved around to different places: in the autumn it was on Sunday nights, and we were studying on Lord's Day evenings through the first few chapters of Leviticus; during December we took a break and looked at some of the great songs of Christmas that focus upon the coming of our Lord into this world for our redemption, and we looked at the biblical passages upon which they were based, and focused on the doctrine of the incarnation and its manifold applications to the Christian life, and attempted to come to a more rooted understanding…

Blood on the Altar

The Lord's Day Evening January 2, 2005 Leviticus 7:1-10 “Blood on the Altar” Dr. J. Ligon Duncan III If you’ll open your Bibles to Leviticus chapter one. If you’ll look at chapter one, for instance, we studied there the burnt offering, the offering that is called the holocaust, that is entirely consumed in the fire. And when we studied Leviticus 1, we saw that that offering taught us about the importance about right worship to God. God is clearly concerned how we worship Him, because He spends all this time telling us how it is to be done, how we ought to approach Him, how we are not to approach Him, what our attitude is to be in approaching Him. And we also said as we looked at chapter one, that this offering highlighted the principle that communion with God requires…

Slain Before the Lord: The Sin Offering

The Lord's Day Evening November 28, 2004 Leviticus 6:24-30 “Slain Before the Lord: The Sin Offering” Dr. J. Ligon Duncan III If you have your Bibles, I'd invite you to turn with me to Leviticus, chapter six. Last week we were looking at Leviticus 6:19-23, and at the priestly grain offering. And we saw several things in that passage of note. First of all, the emphasis on consecration: the way that Aaron and his sons were to express, to visibly manifest their consecration of the whole of themselves to the Lord on the day of the high priest's ordination by the giving of this grain offering. That consecration through the giving of the grain was an act whereby they said, ‘Lord, this bread represents me. I am wholly Yours. I am giving myself to You.’ It was an offering of…

Burnt Bread: The Grain Offering

The Lord's Day Evening November 21, 2004 Leviticus 6:19-23 “Burnt Bread: The Grain Offering” (2) Dr. J. Ligon Duncan III If you have your Bibles, I'd invite you to turn with me to Leviticus, chapter six, again; this time beginning in verse 19. You’ll want to allow your eyes to look back four verses over the passage that we considered last week when we first began to look again at the grain offering. And perhaps you’ll want to remember something of what we said when we looked at…

The Lord's Day Evening October 10, 2004 Leviticus 3:1-17 “The Sacrifice of Peace: The Fellowship Offering” Dr. J. Ligon Duncan III I invite you to turn with me to Leviticus, chapter three. As we began our study of the Book of Leviticus, we observed a number of things about the structure of this book. The first half deals with the various sacrifices, the ordination of the priests, and culminates in chapter sixteen with the description of the sacrifice of atonement on the Day of Atonement.…
