OCTOBER 16 LESSON BURNT OFFERING. GrOM)EN Christ was once offered to ibeaT 9 28. Central acceptable approach to must bo in his way, and not our own. The Roofc of Leviticus, to which we now co-me, Jvas been called the "figura tivo exhibition of the way of s-ulvatiou." In Ezodous we have been told of Isia- el's redemption and separation to be God's peecliar pepole. We now to series of symbols how they weie God, and his -and favor.

The study ought to ipr.cve Interesting and profitable. will he'lp us to understand much be obscurp in New Testament allusions to offerings and No'dcubt the a i is true, that treason why many have no butter ac- with his Ajiot-tles is because they are such strangers with IMoses and Aaron." Respecting the origin of we have'no explicit revelation. It is not therefore, a ou this there is a variety of opinions. Sousu 'hare-supposed they originur.ed in express couxnand of God, iind others a they were first dictated by humms impulse. Cut, it is very certain a they 'had the divine sanction.

Explieit'direc. tionS'Were given concerning them a thej made tyucs of that one grout, sacrifice in which was at once victim and priest. ihe different i of sacrifices the most'iinportHnt were the the pe. ice-offering and the Mn-uiferiute and trespass-offering 1 These all had 'Some things in common; all weie gifts to God sml answered the purpose worship, and ah', too, were meant to stone for Tae lust point is we)J worth rerueaiberinr. Whatever was tree of other offerings, as of flour, oil i into every sacrifice )f animal life, every offering there colored the idea of ntffieruent.

-First and iast, -and always, st nil taies, and even IB nil dn'ies, iraa is a sinner. His most coastant.and primary need of a ''coveriag justuhat whicfc in Old TesUeueut ueage is uieaot by the word atonement. Cor.se- quently, in the 'burnt and peace, as as in the sin trespass offersogs, there was'firsfc of all lfre pouring out of bleod for the ci'siu. Further itshoeld that offerings of ft'at; earth's fruits newer went Bloixl- always with these How impressvsaly are we thus reminded that lit is only, as a sioaer that uiaa can ever approach Maker and as a sinner ho have some atoning offering to present, or "This is a pRnt to be surrendered in it his entire being--body, soul and spirit. And it was this spirit of penitent and trusting consecration wh'uh made the sacrifice a'-sweet savor" to God "Man rising above the earth and i heavenwards is, in all ages, the fulfilling of our heavenly Father's will, and was the lesson of this the earliest form of sacrifice." It perhaps be said a some excellent writers, of whotn is one, have supposed that in this offering the burning of the entire victim, was intended to signify the fullness of the atonement made for hin.

and that the idea of self consecration did not i i i i but such is not the a i i vitw. PRACTICAL SUGGESTIONS. 1. No right-minded person can desiie to approach God empty hano'ed; the spontaneous impulse of the heart is to an offering unto the Lord." 2. Gi'd early made j.hiin that he will accept only the best.

Our choicest possessions must be looked upon as belonging to him Some persons give to him such as they cannot use theci selves, or the pittances left nfter eelf indulgence. ''Offer it thy gov ernor, i lie be ple.is i i 8. An essential condition of eveiy ac ceptablw sacrifice was it should be of the giver's -'own a i It is the heart there is in it which anything we bring to or do fo him, pleasing to him. i. God lays no oppressive burdm upon us.

He accepts the turtledove, i that ib all we have to bring. But ho in not pleased i small sifts if we are able to give more. 5 All these transactions at the altars sacrifice meant nothing if man is a i in Gud's sight, and without hope, save as somehow utoaeuieut is made for his sin. 6. Nor did these sacrifices mean any i if it is not in God's heart to save sinner.

This great and checriiig i i is doubly plain to siixe. in Jesus Christ his own dear Son, God lias himself provided for us a spotless lamb of priceless value, and by his one offering on the cross has made an atonement a a for us aii. lu the ancient sacrifice every man own ox, or lamb or ii for himself. The sinner has now to make the one perfect sacrifice of Christ his own by an act of appropriating faith But this he certainly JIUT do. 8.

Atonement for sin and self-surrender to God went together in the burnt- to bring his piguou, a offer offering. So tfoey must in our approaches to God By appropriating faith in the blood of Jesus, ard self-dedication of body, soul and spirit, we come into relations of peace and newness of nt'e i hiia. But this is not an act, done once for all. The burnt offering w.is a i and evening sacrifice. a i we have need in plead the work if Christ, for the pardon of daily sins.
