Leviticus 21 What does it mean to be holy in an unholy world? It means that we stand apart from that which is profane. It means that we see ourselves as saved by His grace and cleansed by the blood of Jesus Christ. It means we are to ask ourselves if we are partnering with […]

He reminded them that instead of seeking God they sought Assyria. Their sacrifices lay upon the altars but are not consumed because of their broken relationship. God is calling them, and us, […]
