There are five primary Old Testament offerings: burnt offering, grain offering, peace\/fellowship offering (see Lev 7:11\u201336), sin\/purification offering, and guilt\/reputation offering (see Lev 7:1\u201310). These chapters also discuss sacrifices. Individual sacrifices included peace offerings (7:15\u201318) and sin\/guilt offerings (7:6\u20137). The purpose of sacrifices for sin was atonement: the process by which God purifies and (re-)consecrates his contaminated and desecrated Tabernacle and people by pouring out his wrath on the sinner or onto a substitute, thus restoring relationship and right order. Key elements of atonement are (1) purification whereby the sins of the offender are not credited\/accounted\/imputed toward him but toward the substitute, which includes propitiation (satisfying God\u2019s wrath through payment\/ransom for sin) and expiation (purging from defilement\/cleansing from sin = forgiveness); and (2) consecration whereby the righteousness\/purity of the substitute is credited\/accounted\/imputed to the trusting sinner (Lev 7:18).<\/span><\/p>\n<p><br style=\"font-weight: 400;\" \/><\/p>","protected":false},"featured_media":0,"template":"","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"give_campaign_id":0,"_seopress_robots_primary_cat":"","_seopress_titles_title":"","_seopress_titles_desc":"","_seopress_robots_index":"","_crdt_document":""},"class_list":["post-4595","reading-plan","type-reading-plan","status-publish","hentry"],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/handstotheplow.org\/om\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/reading-plan\/4595","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/handstotheplow.org\/om\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/reading-plan"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/handstotheplow.org\/om\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/reading-plan"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/handstotheplow.org\/om\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=4595"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
