Title: Aaron's Vindication Text: Numbers 17 1. God is in the business of preaching Christ Jesus. 2. Israel is in the wilderness and there had been a rebellion against His rule and order through Moses and Aaron. 3. But He is sovereign, so they did not cause the insurrection. The insurrection was for God to preach the need of a mediator who stands between life and death. 4. And so, God's judgment came and people died and more were to die. 5. However, there was intercession by way of Aaron that stopped the plague. 6. And this intercession was typological of the intercession of Christ that separated condemnation from justification. 7. But there are serious theological implications to the meaning of these things. God means to teach us that Christ Jesus is His appointed person to cause your salvation. 8. And any attempt to help Him always leads to death-your death. And God sought to vindicate His choice of Christ through Aaron. Many gospel nuggets to glean and they are FREE!
