Rev. David Duke of Concordia Lutheran Church in Newfane, NY and St. John Lutheran Church in Youngstown, NY joins host Rev. Brady Finnern to study Leviticus 14.

***Warning!  We did not get through the whole chapter.  We finished the first 20 verses focusing on the cleansing of the healed leper as Pastor Duke painted a wonderful picture concerning the cleansing from the priest.

We need to be clean because we are by nature sinful and unclean.  Although the leper had been healed, he still needed to be cleansed with his relationship with the LORD.  We see two clean birds, one sacrificed---one to live free.  We see hyssop and water.  We see water and oil.  All of this shows God’s mercy to the most unclean people: lepers.  And if the LORD would welcome a leper into His sanctuary, by Christ’s work (the hyssop on the cross, the waters and blood out of his side, the blood of His sacrifice, He also welcomes us back to Him.  “Lord God, open our ears to hear Your Word.  Cleanse our hands and feet to do Your work.  And fill our hearts with faith that we may be made clean by You in Christ.  In Him, Amen”
