The Perfect Priest We Need (Leviticus 8-10)
Like the recent coronation of King Charles III, the instalment of Aaron as priest was meant to be a glorious occasion in the life of Israel - until tragedy strikes. But are we also presumptuous before God, as if we can approach him on our terms? And if God burns with fiery holiness, what hope is there for sinners like us to enter his presence? Join us as we consider “The Perfect Priest We Need” from Leviticus 8-10.
Introduction: A Grand Occasion

c. Jesus has been installed as priest to enable God’s glory to be seen (John 1:14)
