This message is our fifth week in Leviticus, covering chapters 8-10. This week we move from the priesthood to the high priest himself, Aaron. The elaborate ordination of Aaron and his two eldest sons and the incredible preparations necessary for the high priestly duties illustrate for us that while God is loving and good, he is also dangerous. Nadab and Abihu, Aaron’s sons, failed to recognize this truth in the past but God holds them accountable at this point. Aaron’s heart undergoes a severe trial as a result. The calling from God is not a call to a safe life. The heroes of faith were not called to safety but to incredible risk, sacrifice and adventure. Where is your journey taking you?
