Emmaus Church Ankeny

Theoden takes us through what seems like some random laws in this text that represent God's call to purity that is fulfilled for us and in us by faith in Jesus.

We consider the loving attention of God and how we are transformed into people who obey him and give loving attention to others as we fix our attention upon Jesus.

Leviticus 18 exposes false pathways to the good life and shows us that God in Christ is our life, and not just biological life - but abundant life!

Theoden Wedel teaches on the holiness of God and what it is to be holy from Leviticus 19, and shows us how we are holy in Christ by faith.

Josh Stanton teaches on the "guardrails" around the use of blood in the law and how it points us to Jesus and his shed blood for us!

After God provides cleansing for his people, he calls them to worship him alone - and in Christ, God recreates our tastebuds to prefer him more than his blessings and more than the creation.

God calls Israel to recieve his cleansing and mercy through a living faith that fasts and rests in him.

The Day of Atonement - a display of immeasurably rich mercy from God to sinful people.

Leviticus 15 is a crazy chapter, and in it we hear the Good News that God is determined to bring cleansing and transformation to the most secret, intimate, and sacred parts of life - as every nook and cranny of life, no matter how good and righteous it may be, is contaminated by death and the corruption of sin.

Jesus is our home, he cleanses us in his blood and makes a home in us for our life and joy with him.
