DAILY?READINGS: Exodus 35; Psalms 87-88; Acts 21:1-16
And He is the propitiation for our sins: and not for ours only, but also for the sins of the whole world. 1 John 2:2
The Tabernacle only had one entrance: the gate. Upon coming there, the Brazen altar graphically presented the high cost of approaching the Holy God. Christ is the only way to the Father, for only His death met His righteous demands. The claims of divine justice were fully met at the cross, and the believer stands fully accepted in the Lord Jesus. —Keith Keyser
For us His blood was shed: for us He lives above:
Secured in Him our Head, God’s purposes of love.
God’s righteousness throws wide the door,
Whence mercy yields her boundless store. —Thomas Kelly
