God's Word outlines the rules and regulations for approaching Him, emphasizing the importance of devotion, gratitude, and fellowship. The peace offering, a sacrifice of peace, is a fellowship with God, and it's essential to understand the heart behind the offering, not just the physical act. The Bible teaches us to be sober-minded in our approach to the Lord, and to keep leaven out of our faith matters, as it represents corruption and evil. The use of salt in the grain offering is also significant, as it preserves and purifies, just like our speech should be seasoned with salt, being gracious and pure. [... more]
