Brother Tim Banna explores the ancient rituals of Leviticus 9 to show how they point to Christ’s ultimate sacrifice. He challenges believers to live as 'fragrant sacrifices,' reflecting God's love and truth to the world around them.

• 1Leviticus is not an irrelevant rulebook but a foundational text that reveals the holiness of God and the necessity of sacrifice for relationship with Him.
• 2God is not a needy deity who requires our 'food' or 'provision'; He is the owner of all things who provides for us.
• 3Jesus Christ fulfilled the entire Levitical system by acting as both the perfect High Priest and the final, blemish-free sacrifice.
• 4Believers are called to be 'fragrant' witnesses, which requires balancing biblical truth with radical, discerning love.
• 5Atonement is 'at-one-ment,' the miraculous work of God bringing sinful humans into unity with a holy Creator.

Practical ways to apply this message to your life.

• Read through Leviticus using the 'BUSH' acronym to see how it enriches your understanding of New Testament concepts like the 'aroma of Christ.'
• Evaluate your witness: Are you sharing truth in a way that is 'odorous' (obnoxious) or 'fragrant' (loving and discerning)?
• Rest in the finished work of Christ by recognizing that you cannot add anything to your salvation; your only contribution was the sin that made it necessary.
• Identify specific ways to offer your body as a 'living sacrifice' this week through intentional obedience and surrender of your time.
• Draw near to the 'throne of grace' with confidence, knowing Jesus has already made the perfect atonement for your soul.

• Pray for understanding and wisdom to apply what you've learned.
