Season 2 Episode 1
Hebrew 4:2, Reintroductions, background of The Church Of Philadelphia, Acorn theory
We Confess the holiness of the Triune God. There is no one like him. We, who are created, cannot know how to worship this Thrice Holy God without his Holy Word instructing our fallen hearts and minds. This Holy Word, both testaments, is not ever done away with, but fulfilled in Christ. He is our Sacrifice. In the first (old) testament, three main sacrifices can be seen. The guilt/trespass/sin offering is the sacrifice given for sin. A true believer deals with his sin before approaching God to worship. After the sin issue is dealt with and forgiveness is assured, the sinner is ready to worship. The following consecration (whole burnt) Offering is a sweet smelling aroma to God, being pure worship, having nothing to do with sin. The Peace Offering is the sign and seal that the worshipers sacrifices have been accepted becoming food to him and to the priest. This is the acropolis of the worship service. Any time all three sacrifices are seen together, they follow this order or "liturgy". Also, it is the Lord that calls His people to worship Him in the New Jerusalem: Mt. Zion. Immediately, His People confess their sin in light of the sacrifice of Christ. With Clean hands and a pure heart, we worship Word and Sacrament culminating in The Lord's Supper ( the fulfillment of the Peace Offering). We lift up our voices in unity to worship with a grateful heart, having partaken of him. We are blessed and sent out, renewed as his people: called, forgiven, fed and blessed.
To Christ Jesus be Glory and Honor in the Church in very generation, world without end, and AMEN!
