So, the next book in &nbsp;the 5 Books of Moses, is Leviticus — or for the Levites — the priests. &nbsp;It is God giving Moses specific instructions on the sacrifices and &nbsp;offerings the people were to bring to the Tabernacle. In these first 3 &nbsp;chapters, we see what types of offerings were acceptable. First there &nbsp;was the male bull, then a sheep or a goat and then a dove — depending on &nbsp;what the people could afford. I’ll skip over some of the gory parts and &nbsp;let you read them for yourself, <a href="https://www.bible.com/bible/116/LEV.1.NLT" rel="noreferrer noopener" target="_blank">here</a>.</p> <p><a href="https://giselleaguiar.com/2021/05/25/jesus-in-leviticus-atonement-for-our-sins-what-sacrifices-actually-please-god/"><em><strong>Keep reading in my blog where there are links to dig deeper….</strong></em></a></p> <p>Jesus said, “Anyone with ears to hear must listen to the Spirit and understand what he is saying to the churches.” ~ ‭‭Revelation‬ ‭3:22‬ ‭NLT‬‬ - This phrase is repeated 14 times in scripture. Kind of gives the idea that God wants us to pay attention.&nbsp;</p> <p>If you want to reap all the benefits of salvation including the 1-way, non-stop ticket to Heaven then…</p> <p>Believe. Repent. Be Baptized. Receive the Holy Spirit.&nbsp;</p> <p>Pray this prayer humbly and wholeheartedly…</p> <p>“Dear Lord Jesus, I know I am a sinner. I believe You died for my sins. Please forgive me. Right now, I turn from my sins and open the door of my heart and my life to you. I confess You as my personal Lord and Savior. I surrender my whole life to you and I will follow you for the rest of my life. Thank You, Jesus, for saving me. In Jesus' name
