priestLeviticus 17: 14 . . . for the life of all flesh is the blood thereof: . . . Although Good Friday and Resurrection Sunday are now past for another year, their significance in the life of every believer from that day till now, continues to be felt!

In my devotional gallivanting one time, I ran across this verse: Isaiah 45:3 And I will give thee the treasures of darkness, and hidden riches of secret places, that thou mayest know that I, the LORD, which call thee by thy name, am the God of Israel. Many times, people associate the concept of darknessRead More…
Perhaps its timely as we get closer to Passover and Resurrection Sunday, that I would find myself going through Leviticus now in my personal devotions. The past few chapters have outlined various sacrifices for various situations both for the people, and for the priesthood in how they would carry out their duties. When we comeRead More…
So I’ve reached the end of Exodus. The 10 Commandments have been given, the Tabernacle has finally been built, and the second book of the Torah is finished. When I was a child, my parents ran a Sunday School mission in a logging camp an hour out of town in a little place called Holberg. Read More…
