DAILY READINGS: Leviticus 2:1-16; Psalms 99:1-101:8; Acts 25:13-27
For it is not possible that the blood of bulls and of goats should take away sins. Wherefore when he cometh into the world, he saith, Sacrifice and offering thou wouldest not, but a body hast thou prepared me. Hebrews 10:4-5
Christ came to do what all other sacrifices never could—take away sins. For this great purpose His body was prepared, and at Calvary God’s justice was satisfied by the offering of the body and blood of Jesus Christ. And what delight is ours to know that He who thus died, lives! This verse declares it, “I know that my redeemer liveth” (Job 19:25). Soon we’ll see Him face to face and worship Him in glory. Until then, we gather, remember, worship and wait. —Carl Knott
My Redeemer! O what beauties in that lovely name appear;
None but Jesus, in His glories, shall the honoured title wear. —Author Unknown
