Lent
The Gospel IN LEVITICUS
We will spend Lent 2025 in the Book of Leviticus; a book that emphasizes the holiness and presence of God while establishing the tabernacle, priesthood, and sacrificial system. It is because of Leviticus that we grasp the gospel as deeply as we do — the true Temple, our the greater High Priest, and the perfect once-for-all sacrifice for sin.

Respond to God's Holiness | Harrison & Lake Errock Campuses | Lent: The Gospel in Leviticus
Leviticus 19:1-18
Leviticus 19 calls the people of God is to be holy, set apart, because God is holy. Rather than give ourselves to a list of rules, do’s and don’ts, whereby we strive to achieve perfection, we are called to embrace a life that reflects the character of God. Holiness is played out, expressed, and experienced, in our attitudes and actions towards God and others, finding fulfillment in self-less love for our neighbour.

Living in Response to Grace | Chilliwack Campus | Lent: The Gospel In Leviticus
Leviticus 19:1-18
Like children striving to earn a parent’s approval, we often misunderstand love as something to be achieved rather than received. The closing chapters of Leviticus remind us that holiness is not a burden to earn God’s favour but a response to the grace we’ve already been given through Christ. Because we stand in His holiness, our lives of obedience become an expression of gratitude and worship, not a means of achieving acceptance.

From Scapegoat to Saviour | Harrison & Lake Errock Campuses | Lent: The Gospel in Leviticus
Leviticus 16:20-34
This morning we look at the Day of Atonement in Leviticus 16, showing how it's sacrifices and scapegoat point to the seriousness of sin and God’s provision for atonement. This is ultimately fulfilled in Jesus Christ, who bears our guilt and removes our sin once for all. It calls us to rest in His finished work and live with humble confidence, knowing there is no condemnation in Him.

The Solution (Pt.2): The Scapegoat That Carries Sin Away | Chilliwack Campus | Lent: The Gospel In Leviticus
Leviticus 16:20-34
For a culture that prioritizes radical autonomy and expressive individualism, the very concept of sin is often dismissed as a tool of psychological oppression—a toxic relic of shame based religious systems seen as an affront to personal dignity. Yet, this cultural avoidance often leaves us with a deeper, more restless anxiety: if there is no such thing as sin, there is also no such thing as true redemption or a clean slate. Christianity asserts that God graciously made atonement possible so that sin can be dealt with and the sinner can be liberated, leading to a life notof heavy religious guilt over sin but profound freedom and flourishing because Jesus endured the penalty of sin and stood in the place of sinners.

The Day of Atonement | Harrison & Lake Errock Campuses | Lent: The Gospel In Leviticus
Leviticus 16:1-19
God initiated the way that sinful man can be reconciled in relationship to Himself. The nation of Israel practiced a sacrificial system, a means to temporarily atone for the sins of mankind. This system was a foreshadow of the ultimate sacrifice. Jesus Christ died for the permanent removal of the sin of mankind. How will you respond?

The Solution (Pt.1): The Atoning Sacrifice for Sin | Chilliwack Campus | Lent: The Gospel In Leviticus
Leviticus 16:1-19
One of the ways that the storyline of the Bible can be summarized is through the lens of God’s presence as the goal. The dilemma is that God is more holy than our sinful selves can bear. In the centre of Leviticus is God’s solution to the dilemma: Atonement.

The Cleansing: A Call to Be Clean | Harrison & Lake Errock Campuses | Lent: The Gospel In Leviticus
Leviticus 11:44-47
contains an abundance of strange laws about avoiding uncleanness and maintaining ritual purity. Though they may seem foreign at first glance, these laws ultimately point to the holiness of God and the seriousness of sin. Through Christ, God frees us from slavery to sin so that we might live lives set apart for Him and enjoy the life He intends for His redeemed people.

What Distinguishes You? | Chilliwack Campus | Lent: The Gospel in Levicticus
Leviticus 11:44-47
God’s holiness is the defining attribute of His character, and in this text He teaches Israel that holiness requires distinction between the clean and the unclean. These dietary laws were not primarily about diet but about forming a people who understood that they belonged to God and were set apart for Him. In the same way, believers today are called to live lives that reflect God’s character rather than conform to the values of the world. Jesus later revealed that true defilement does not come from what enters the body but from the sinful heart within. Through Christ, God provides the cleansing we need and calls us to live as His holy people.

Mediators for Approaching a Holy God | Harrison Campus | Lent: The Gospel in Leviticus
Leviticus 8:1-13
How can sinful people live near a holy God and not be consumed? In Leviticus 8 we watch God take the initiative: He appoints priests, consecrates them, clothes them, anoints them, and shows Israel that even their mediators need atonement. And that’s the point: the whole priestly system was never meant to be the finish line; it was meant to create hunger for someone better. Because if priests had to stand daily offering sacrifices that could never fully take away sin, then we need a Priest who doesn’t need cleansing, doesn’t need repeating, and doesn’t need replacing; and that Priest is Jesus Christ, the One who offered one sacrifice for all time and sat down, because the work is finished.
