was sacrificed on the cross, He offered His deepest soul to God which was tried in the fire of the cross. This offering symbolizes fellowship with God. (1) Signifies thankfulness for a specific blessing; (2) offers a ritual expression of a vow; and (3) symbolizes general thankfulness (to be brought to one of three required religious services). This sacrifice of praise and thanksgiving was most of the time a voluntary act. (It was required to make offerings while making a vow of one’s life to God and thanking Him with praise while freewill offerings were voluntary). Fellowship with God; a communion meal. An offering made for unexpected blessing or deliverance already granted. Jacob and Laban offered a peace offering when they made their treaty (Genesis 31:43). This was not a happy meal!
The Sin Offering (Lev 4:1-35; 5:1-13; 6:24–30; 8:1-17; 9:1-11; 12:6–8) “Speak to the children of Israel, saying: “If a person sins unintentionally against any of the commandments of the Lord in anything which ought not to be done, and does any of them, if the anointed priest sins, bringing guilt on the people, then let him offer to the LORD for his sin which he has sinned a young bull without blemish as a sin offering” (Lev.4:2-3). “My little children, these things I write to you, so that you may not sin. And if anyone sins, we have an Advocate with the Father, Jesus Christ the righteous. And He Himself is the propitiation for our sins, and not for ours only but also for the whole world” (1Jn.2:1-2).
