Leviticus 17:1–9

About this episode
We live in an age that treats worship like a potluck dinner. The only sin, in this modern religion, is to suggest that there is only one Host, one approved menu, and one designated place to eat. To suggest such a thing is considered arrogant, narrow, and exclusive. But the God of the Bible is gloriously, wonderfully, and mercifully exclusive. He is not one option among many; He is the only option there is. All other options are not just wrong; they are poison. Leviticus is a book that modern Christians often tiptoe around. It is full of blood, detailed regulations, and things that seem alien to our sanitized, suburban sensibilities. It teaches us that God is holy, that sin is deadly serious, and that the only approach to this holy God is the one He Himself prescribes.
