The sermon titled "The Peace Offering" by Don Bell examines the theological significance of the peace offering as presented in Leviticus 3:1-5. The preacher articulates how the peace offering symbolizes reconciliation between God and humanity through Jesus Christ, emphasizing that the peace established is built upon the perfect and sinless life of Christ, who fulfills and embodies all Old Testament sacrifices. Key Scriptural references include Colossians 1:19-21 and 2 Corinthians 5:19, which underscore the concept that true peace with God can only be achieved through the blood of Christ. Bell highlights the practical implications of this doctrine, noting that believers can partake in this peace through their identification with Christ, which is both a present reality and a future hope that transcends earthly distinctions.
“The only way true peace, true peace can be established between sinful man and God was for God Himself to provide the peace offering.”
“In this body of Christ…there is neither Jew nor Greek, there is neither bond nor free, there is neither male nor female, for you all are one in Christ Jesus.”
“Yet now, yet now, yet now…He hath reconciled. How did he do that? Made peace.”
“The fire of God's judgment must fall upon the sacrifice before there can be peace.”
