God provided
specific directions for the kind of worship that would be pleasing to
him. These instructions teach us about the nature of God and can
help us develop a right attitude toward worship. Through the
offerings we learn of the seriousness of sin and the importance of
bringing our sins to God for forgiveness.
God gave clear
standards for living a holy life to the Israelites. They were to be
separate and distinct from the pagan nations around them. In the
same way, all believers should be separated from sin and dedicated to
God. God still wants to remove sin from the lives of his people.
