“Worth it” video series – $169 hotdogs versus $2 hotdogs
A. COSTLY WORSHIP…
Dramatising the burnt offering through the story of “Asher”
Gordon Wenham: “An essential ingredient of sacrifice was that it had to be costly …”
Worship remains a costly sacrifice today (Heb 13:15)
B. … COMPLETELY WORTH IT!
The sacrifice is worth it, when the one we are sacrificing for is worthy!
God is worthy because He is:
- Faithful to His covenant (Lev 2:13)
- Full of compassion (Lev 1:14-16)
Conclusion
I won’t give you what’s left, but only my best.
Our Lord Jesus, for the joy that was set before Him, gives us His best — to Him we are “worth it”!
