All praise to God, the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who has blessed us with every spiritual blessing in the heavenly realms because we are united with Christ. OLAH, literally ascending," that is, the sacrifice "ascends" to God. If we develop some sort of “behind the scenes” theology which is not in union with what scripture reveals actually happened we are then open to any interpretation that we want to give. If it is, it will be consistent with the message which Jesus preached throughout the gospels. Neither is there salvation in any other: for there is none other name under heaven given among men, whereby we must be saved (Acts 4:8-12). It was the message of peace with God and was full of the mercy, compassion, and forgiveness that the people needed. I was cast upon thee from the womb: thou art my God from my mother’s belly. Thanks again Michael – I have again understood your argument and agree absolutely and understand your point that our iniquities were borne by Christ. Instead He would have been rejected “AS SINNERS ARE REJECTED” if indeed God has treated Him as a sinner. The ritualistic method of the sin offering and the animal to be offered varied depending on the status of the sinner. Matthew interprets Isaiah”s words concerning the Messiah “bearing” our sicknesses in view of the healing and deliverance which Jesus came to bring. Leviticus 16 “And it shall be a statute to you forever that in the seventh month, on the tenth day of the month, you shall … do no work, either the native or the stranger who sojourns among you. Acts 8:33 is a quote from Isaiah 53:8 which says, “ He was taken from prison and from judgment: and who shall declare his generation? Thank you, Michael! I assume (hope that’s correct) you would agree that the Father is angry at sin. Tim Mize. “and the only way that we could become clean from our sins is through the Precious Blood of Christ” Absolutely! God paid a steep price – a ransom price – for our redemption. God imputed man’s sinfulness and guilt to Christ and treated his own Son as a sinner. Jesus Christ made Himself a sin offering to the world, it means if you accept Him with His commandments, God accepts you automatically. Jesus is the Sin Offering. My comment you quoted was written quickly and I may have expressed an unintended nuance. Jesus’ message was full of the hope of salvation. This physical knowledge, however, gave them no insight into the meaning of the spiritual significance of Christ’s death, burial, and resurrection. Even worse, sin, when it is … (Part One). And WHEN THEY HAD FULFILLED ALL THAT WAS WRITTEN OF HIM, they took him down from the tree, and laid him in a sepulchre. Hebrews 1:3 tells us “after He had purged our sins, He sat down on the right hand of the majesty on High.” The word purged means “to cleanse.” After Jesus had cleansed our sins by the shedding of His blood, by which He also entered into the Holy Presence of God for us as High Priest, He sat down on the right hand of God. 5. Furthermore, God did not send his Son to change himself. Here is a brief excerpt from Kenyon’s teachings taken from his book, The Bible in the Light of Our Redemption: “The disciples knew the meaning of the Crucifixion of Christ, his burial, and his resurrection, only through their physical senses. The Sin Offering (Leviticus 4) The Trespass Offering (Leviticus 5) Other offerings are mentioned in the Mosaic Law. WAS GOD’S COVENANT WITH ABRAHAM UNCONDITIONAL? The Son of God was wrongly condemned by those who hated him. WILL THERE BE A WEALTH TRANSFER IN THE LAST DAYS? God did not intervene to rescue Jesus from the agony of the Cross. It means you have become a member of the Kingdom of God. Behold, the hour cometh, yea, is now come, that ye shall be scattered, every man to his own, and shall leave me alone: and yet I am not alone, because the Father is with me (John 16:28-32). The evangelical teaching is that a sinner has access to God only through Christ, who declares himself to be the "Door" and the "Way" (John 10:9; John 14:6). Word-Faith leaders take a different—though even more heretical—spin on the verse. Thou hast taken away all thy wrath: thou hast turned thyself from the fierceness of thine anger. They were as sheep that had gone astray and they needed God’s mercy. The sin offerings were offered to make atonementfor sin. Paul tells the Corinthians the following: I delivered unto you first of all that which I also received, how that Christ died for our sins according to the scriptures; and that he was buried, and that he rose again the third day according to the scriptures… ~ 1 Corinthians 15:3-4. In 2 Corinthians 5 the Bible tells us that it was God himself who was at work in His Son reconciling the world to him. Now are we sure that thou knowest all things, and needest not that any man should ask thee: by this we believe that thou camest forth from God. Christ was perfect. The sin offering among the Jews was the sacrifice in which the ideas of propitiation and of atonement for sin were most distinctly marked. Christ’s precious blood has cleansing power because His body was the Holy Offering which He offered to God on the altar of the cross. They saw and heard and handled the resurrected body of Christ. O my God, I cry in the day time, but thou hearest not; and in the night season, and am not silent. WHEN GOD LOOKS AT YOU, DOES HE ONLY SEE JESUS? According to Kenyon, it was Paul who was given the “spiritual revelation” of the cross. He did only what he saw His Father do (John 5:19). And he shall put his hand upon the head of the burnt offering; and it shall be ACCEPTED for him to make atonement for him (Leviticus 1:4). Had God rejected Jesus on the cross, we would still be in our sins! The predetermined counsel of God was that Jesus die for our sins and this was fulfilled by what actually happened at the cross when Jesus died at the hands of sinful men. He is the true sacrificial Lamb without blemish. “Christ shed His precious blood (1) to remit our sins, (2) to cleanse us from our sins, (3) to justify us from our sins, (4) to redeem us to God, (5) to give us peace with God, (6) to give us a new covenant, (7) to set us apart for God, (8) to bring near to God so that we might know Him and walk in fellowship with Him.” Absolutely. I gave my back to the smiters, and my cheeks to them that plucked off the hair: I hid not my face from shame and spitting. And all things are of God, who hath reconciled us to himself by Jesus Christ, and hath given to us the ministry of reconciliation; To wit, that God was in Christ, reconciling the world unto himself, not imputing their trespasses unto them; and hath committed unto us the word of reconciliation (2 Corinthians 5:17-19). 4. For on this day shall atonement be made for you to cleanse you” (Leviticus 16:29). Study 5 OUR GREAT AND GLORIOUS HIGH PRIEST. All the ends of the world shall remember and turn unto the LORD: and all the kindreds of the nations shall worship before thee. The teaching of the Bible is that our redemption is by virtue of the blood of Jesus. When we sin, it is not about looking at our sin, and examining ourselves. Where the blood was sprinkled also depended on the person: for the High Priest, on the veil covering … Jesus cried out with a loud voice, saying, “Eli, Eli, lema sabachthani?” that is, “My God, my God, why have you forsaken me?” Why would He have said that if that is a) what He felt, and/or b) what He wanted to ‘remind’ us of – Ps 22? Read verse 12 again. Written by Adriel Sanchez | Monday, January 7, 2019 . (Matthew 21:33-42). Though Kenyon did teach some good things in other areas, his theology about the nature of Christ’s death is not one of them. The sin offering required when a priest had sinned, for which there is a similar sacrificial animal as the Yom Kippur offering, is considered by scholars to be a much later development, and only added to the text of Leviticus in the latest stages of its compilation, after sin offerings had begun to be seen as being about atonement for actual sin rather than relatively immediate breaches … (2) The association here of the sin offering with the burnt offering is significant. They cried unto thee, and were delivered: they trusted in thee, and were not confounded. Each animal had a common fulfillment in the sacrifice of Jesus Christ. Isaiah 53:12 tells us, “He *** BARE *** the sin of many, and made intercession for the transgressors.”. They part my garments among them, and cast lots upon my vesture. God predetermined that Jesus would suffer and die – it pleased the Lord to bruise Him – but it was the enemies of God and Christ who did it. God withdraw his protective hand when the time came for Jesus to lay down his life; in this sense he was delivered over to death by God as our sacrifice. Study 6 SALVATION – FULL, FREE AND FOR EVER! 2. This is confirmed by the second part of 2 Corinthians 5:21: “So that in him we might become the righteousness of God.” To impute something is to ascribe or attribute it to someone. Many bulls have compassed me: strong bulls of Bashan have beset me round. Paul most assuredly would have thought through the scriptures as a Jewish scholar and would have understood Christ’s death and resurrection in view of the scriptures. (Titus 3:3-8). Yet the Bible says, Jesus reconciled us to God through the blood of His cross to make us HOLY and unblameable and unreproveable in his sight (Colossians 1:20-22). They say unto him, He will miserably destroy those wicked men, and will let out his vineyard unto other husbandmen, which shall render him the fruits in their seasons. Literally, Hebrews 10:6 says: In burnt offerings and sin thou hast had no pleasure. Instead, we were the ones in need and God met that need in his son Jesus Christ when he sent him to be the Savior of the world. For of a truth against thy holy child Jesus, whom thou hast anointed, both Herod, and Pontius Pilate, with the Gentiles, and the people of Israel, were GATHERED TOGETHER, For TO DO whatsoever thy hand and thy counsel determined before to be done (Acts 4:25-28). How is this dealt with? There is no record in all of scripture that Jesus ever referred to his suffering as a substitute or anything remotely like a substitute. It is translated as "burnt offering" or "whole offering." The apostles who walked with Jesus did not comprehend the things which Jesus told them about His sufferings before He was crucified. Matthew 27 and Mark 15 are the two places in the New Testament where Psalm 22:1 is recorded. In Ephesians 2:4-6 we read of the riches of his mercy, the greatness of His love, and the saving power of His grace all intertwined in the death, resurrection, and exaltation of His Son. Paul’s reference to Christ being made sin for us is derived from the Old Testament motif of the sin offerings. They did not. HE WAS HEARD – Who in the days of his flesh, when he had offered up prayers and supplications with strong crying and tears unto him that was able to save him from death, and was heard in that he feared; Though he were a Son, yet learned he obedience by the things which he suffered; And being made perfect, he became the author of eternal salvation unto all them that obey him (Hebrews 5:7-9). The crucified body of Jesus is the “offering for our sins.”. Instead, as the true shepherd of the sheep who were going astray, Jesus is the one who “bore” our sins by taking them away and providing cleansing. ( Log Out / He generously poured out the Spirit upon us through Jesus Christ our Savior. The foundation of our redemption in Christ is indeed the love, mercy, and grace of God. However, we know that the author is not referring to sin but to the sin offerings instead. It is also used in Psalm 25:16-18 and Psalm 32:1 &5. As the Offerer, Jesus brought Himself, as it were, to God's altar, and then offered Himself before God as the sin offering. What assurance this gives us that the sin question has once-and-for-all been settled! Jesus was rejected and condemned by men but accepted by God who raised him from the dead. Without the shedding of blood there is no remission for sin! God is by his very nature a loving, kind, and merciful God. Throughout the Old Testament the words sin and sin offering are translated from the same Hebrew word “chattath”. The crown of thorns was placed there by men. The Greek word for “offered up” is the same one that is used in 1Peter 2:24 which tells us that Christ “bare” our sins in His body. Through this operation, God has forgiven us of all our trespasses. Jesus was protected from those who wanted to destroy Him until the time came that He should lay down His life (John 7:30). Sin “Sin” is a word that comes from the Greek which means to miss the mark, as in archery. Jesus saith unto them, Did ye never read in the scriptures, The stone which the builders rejected, the same is become the head of the corner: THIS IS THE LORD’S DOING, and it is marvellous in our eyes? The work of redemption that God accomplished for us through His Son Jesus Christ was the outworking of the divine goodness in his heart. He did not send “a replacement” so as to make an “exchange.” He sent His only begotten Son to purchase our redemption (Acts 20:28; 1 Corinthians 6:19-20; 7:23; Revelation 5:9). 5:2). GENTILES OWE A DEBT OF GRATITUDE TO ISRAEL. After giving this vivid picture of the Old Testament priests in verse 11, the writer (in verses 12-14) points in contrast to our perfect High Priest. Reblogged this on Rooted and Grounded In Christ. Him hath God exalted with his right hand to be a Prince and a Saviour, for to give repentance to Israel, and forgiveness of sins. Throughout the Old Testament the word atonement was used to convey the idea of reconciliation, sanctification, consecration, and forgiveness. There is no precedent in scripture which would indicate that the offerings for sin were made sinful with the sins of the people, which is how 2 Corinthians has been interpreted by some. HAVING A FORM OF GODLINESS, BUT DENYING THE POWER THEREOF, JESUS, AND THE BIBLICAL VIEW OF MAN’S DOMINION, THE BIBLICAL DOCTRINE OF PASSOVER IN CONTRAST TO HEBREW ROOTS TEACHINGS, HOW THE LAW TRANSLATES TO THE NEW TESTAMENT, GOOD PRACTICES FOR BIBLICAL INTERPRETATION. God wasn’t the one in need. The nails in his hands and feet came from the condemnation of men. Is it the ‘exchange’ idea that you object to because that would seem to suggest He is being described as a sinful man – but we all know He is perfect, spotless, blameless. When they mentioned Jesus’ death in their preaching, they repeatedly spoke of Christ’s death as an injustice by the hands of sinful men in fulfillment of the scriptures. He washed away our sins, giving us a new birth and new life through the Holy Spirit. THE DEATH OF JESUS WAS A SWEET FRAGRANCE TO GOD – Christ also hath loved us, and hath given himself for us an offering and a sacrifice to God for a sweet-smelling savor (Ephesians 5:2). For he hath made him to be sin for us, who knew no sin; that we might be made the righteousness of God in him (2 Corinthians 5:21). Now please don’t misunderstand this, the common people certainly were sinners and in were need of forgiveness and reconciliation. All that Christ accomplished for us in His death was by virtue of His shed blood. All they that be fat upon earth shall eat and worship: all they that go down to the dust shall bow before him: and none can keep alive his own soul. Our redemption was not accomplished by Christ becoming “as a sinner.” On the contrary, our redemption was accomplished through the precious blood of Christ. This is the context which surrounds Paul’s statement in 2 Corinthians 5.
