As we read through Numbers, in the Spoken Word Bible Reading Plan, I am reminded again of the awesome GRACE of God the Father, Who planned the great plan of Salvation, sent God the Son to become the Son of God and consummate (carry out, fulfill and finish) it, and then sent God the Holy Spirit to teach, train, lead, guide and direct us in it! We are, of ALL people, MOST BLESSED! Amen! No more lambs and goats and the shedding of blood upon an altar! Hebrews 10:4-10:
4 Because the blood of bulls and goats is powerless to take sins away. 5 Hence, when He [Christ] entered into the world, He said, Sacrifices and offerings You have not desired, but instead You have made ready a body for Me [to offer]; 6 In burnt offerings and sin offerings You have taken no delight. 7 Then I said, Behold, here I am, coming to do Your will, O God - [to fulfill] what is written of Me in the volume of the Book. [Ps 40:6-8.] 8 When He said just before, You have neither desired, nor have You taken delight in sacrifices and offerings and burnt offerings and sin offerings - all of which are offered according to the Law - 9 He then went on to say, Behold, [here] I am, coming to do Your will. Thus He does away with and annuls the first (former) order [as a means of expiating sin] so that He might inaugurate and establish the second (latter) order. [Ps 40:6-8.] 10 And in accordance with this will [of God], we have been made holy (consecrated and sanctified) through the offering made once for all of the body of Jesus Christ (the Anointed One).

ONCE, for ALL! Once time, for ALL people, for ALL time! All that is left is for those who have never heard, to hear and receive! Let's be about our Father's business of preaching the Good News, healing the sick, raising the dead and casting out demons so that the lost may see and hear of Him and be saved! Here is a new song by Hillsong United that speaks of this unspeakable gift! This "scandalous" GRACE that He gave, called "Scandal Of Grace":
Shalom in Him!
