Scott Allen leads todays lesson from Leviticus 26:1-13 with a summary of Leviticus 16:1-10 and 29-30. The Day of Atonement provided a solemn opportunity for the nation of Israel to receive a temporary forgiveness of sins through annual rituals. In the present day, believers have permanent forgiveness through the redemptive sacrifice of Jesus Christ, our heavenly high priest. With such amazing grace available, why is it still important to obey God's commands. We find several reasons listed in Leviticus 26 and come to the conclusion that the benefits of a life of consistent obedience are too wonderful to miss out on.
