Leviticus - the Holy living of God's people

 This section concerning the holy living of God's people starts from chapter 11. 

The ways for God's people to live a holy living 

1. To contact people - 


2. Concerning our birth - 

3. Our condition- leprosy 

4. Discharge - not only unclean, filthy, and contagious - (Leviticus c15) 

Anything that comes from our natural men is unclean and contagious. Even in our serving the Lord, our natural ability and so on are unclean. Besides, anything we do for the Lord, it shall originate from the Lord as the source. That's why we always pray before we fellowship. The means is the Lord, and the outcome shall be glorifying God. 

The way to deal with the discharge is via the washing the cloth- such washing is the washing of the spirit of life. 

Ep 5:26 That He might sanctify her, cleansing her by the washing of the water in the word,

That's why it is important that we read the Word of God every day - even we might not understand the word entirely, we still get washed in the word. 

Comparing to leprosy - it is easy to avoid; However, to natural discharge, it is hard to stay away. Since it is hard to stay away, it is so easy to contaminate people by our natural discharge. 

5 things that can save us from the uncleanness:

1. Death of Christ 

2. Resurrection of Christ 

3. Spirit of Christ 

4. Life of Christ 

5. The word of Christ
