At-one-ment – shelter and purpose
Numbers 29-30 /Mark 1-3

How to get the most out of Hungry Bible


OT

30:3-5 If a young woman makes a vow to the LORD or a pledge under oath while she is still living at her father’s home, and her father hears of the vow or pledge but says nothing, then all her vows and pledges will stand. But if her father refuses to let her fulfill the vow or pledge on the day he hears of it, then all her vows and pledges will become invalid. The LORD will forgive her because her father would not let her fulfill them.

NT

1:17 “Come, follow me,” Jesus said, “and I will make you fishers of men.”


OT Flash Points

Trumpets! Atonement! Shelter?
7 days of the same offering except the number of bulls
Starting with 13 – one less each day
Covering for women concerning vows

NT Flash Points

Audible voice of God
Jesus gathers His disciples
Teaching with authority, not speculation
Authority over all creation, physical and spiritual


Perspective

Blanket application of religious rules is inappropriate
Why?
Because we have a living LORD, up close and personal
The life that is the message
That is the result of a heart broken by conviction of sin, baptized by the Holy Ghost, shaped by the purpose of God
Not head knowledge
