BY TAMLA WALLS

GOD IS HOLY GOD IS HOLY AND HE TOLD MOSES EVERYTHING EXACTLY THE WAY HE WANTED IT DONE. GOD WAS VERY SPECIFIC IN EVERYTHING CONCERNING THE PRIESTHOOD.

GOD TOLD MOSES HOW THE TABERNACLE WAS TO BE BUILT, HOW THE PRIESTS' CLOTHING WAS TO BE MADE, WHAT PLANTS AND ANIMALS WHERE USED IN THE DAILY OFFERINGS, AND HOW THE PRIESTS' OFFERED THE SACRIFICIAL OFFERINGS.

THE PRIESTHOOD THE PRIESTS HAD A SPECIAL JOB. THEY OFFERED SACRIFICES ACCORDING TO THE LAW, THEY TAUGHT THE LAWS OF GOD TO THE PEOPLE, AND THEY TOOK CARE OF THE TABERNACLE.

NADAB AND ABIHU IT IS VERY IMPORTANT HOW GOD IS WORSHIPPED . IN OUR LESSON WE WILL REVIEW THE STORY OF NADAB AND ABIHU AND HOW THEY DID NOT WORSHIP GOD AS HE COMMANDED.

A STRANGE FIRE THE PRIEST HAD THE JOB OF OFFERING THE DAILY SACRIFICE. ON THIS PARTICULAR DAY, NADAB AND ABIHU, THE SONS OF AARON,

DID NOT FOLLOW GOD'S INSTRUCTIONS. EACH OF THEM TOOK THEIR CENSER, PUT FIRE THEREIN, AND INCENSE THEREON, AND OFFERED STRANGE FIRE BEFORE THE LORD. GOD'S WRATH WAS KINDLED AND FIRE WENT OUT FROM THE LORD AND DEVOURED NADAB AND ABIHU.

IN LEV. 10:3, THE LORD SAID THAT HE WILL BE SANCTIFIED IN THEM THAT COME NIGH HIM, AND BEFORE ALL PEOPLE HE WILL BE GLORIFIED.

GOD IS TO BE REVERENCED NADAB AND ABIHU FOOLISHLY DISOBEYED GOD AND DID NOT SACRIFICE AND WORSHIP HIM AS HE COMMANDED. THEY DID NOT GLORIFY GOD NETHER DID THEY REVERENCE HIM.

THEREFORE THEIR LIVES WERE CUT OFF. PS. 89:6-7 'FOR WHO IN HEAVEN CAN BE COMPARED TO THE LORD...GOD IS GREATLY TO BE FEARED IN THE ASSEMBLY OF THE SAINTS AND TO BE HAD IN REVERENCE OF ALL THEM THAT ARE ABOUT HIM.
