Read Scriptures: Leviticus 16:1-17:16
Situation: The Day of Atonement was the holiest day for the Isrealites. The ceremonies included the sin offering of a bull for the high priest and his household, the sin offering of two goats for the people, and the rigtual of sending a goat into the wilderness.
Observation: The number of sins atoned for by the Day of Atonement is staggering. The sin offering cleansed the place of God's dwelling from the pollution of the people's sins.
Application: Don't let sin get you down. If you've repented of your sins, you can accept God's forgiveness. So thank Him for His mercy and move on.
