Old Testament

Where Water Baptism Belongs:
Answering the Objections (Part 7 of 7)

Without Shedding of Blood, Part 7 of 7: Where Water Baptism Belongs: Answering the Objections. Hebrews 10:18 (KJV): “Now where remission of these is, there is no more offering for sin.” Baptism has a real place, and that place comes after the blood.

The Old Testament foundation answers Acts 2:38, Acts 22:16, Hebrews 10:22, and Galatians 3:27, and shows where baptism belongs.

Abraham Believed God:
Righteous Before the Sign (Part 6 of 7)

Without Shedding of Blood, Part 6 of 7: Abraham Believed God: Righteous Before the Sign. Genesis 15:6 (KJV): “And he believed in the LORD; and he counted it to him for righteousness.” Abraham was righteous before he received any outward sign.

Abraham believed God and was counted righteous years before he received any outward sign.

Three Witnesses to the Blood (Part 5 of 7)

Without Shedding of Blood, Part 5 of 7: Three Witnesses to the Blood. Leviticus 17:11 (KJV): “…it is the blood that maketh an atonement for the soul.” Water was never shed for anyone.

Leviticus 17:11, Matthew 26:28, and Hebrews 9:22 agree that remission comes by shed blood, and none of them names water.

Types and Shadows Fulfilled in Jesus Christ
(Part 4 of 7)

Without Shedding of Blood, Part 4 of 7: Types and Shadows Fulfilled in Jesus Christ. Colossians 2:17 (KJV): “…a shadow of things to come; but the body is of Christ.” Every shadow points to Jesus Christ and His shed blood.

The Passover lamb, the sin offering, the high priest, and the mercy seat were shadows, and the body is of Christ.

The Day of Atonement:
Blood Within the Vail (Part 3 of 7)

Without Shedding of Blood, Part 3 of 7: The Day of Atonement: Blood Within the Vail. Leviticus 16:30 (KJV): “…that ye may be clean from all your sins before the LORD.” Water cleansed the priests. The blood made the atonement.

On the day of atonement the high priest carried blood within the vail, while water only cleansed the men who served.

The Sin Offering:
Forgiven Through Blood (Part 2 of 7)

Without Shedding of Blood, Part 2 of 7: The Sin Offering: Forgiven Through Blood. Leviticus 4:20 (KJV): “…the priest shall make an atonement for them, and it shall be forgiven them.” Every promise of forgiveness followed shed blood, not water.

Every sin offering in Leviticus 4 promised forgiveness through shed blood, and its washings never made atonement.

Without Shedding of Blood:
Hebrews 9:22 and the Passover (Part 1 of 7)

Without Shedding of Blood, Part 1 of 7: Without Shedding of Blood: Hebrews 9:22 and the Passover. Hebrews 9:22 (KJV): “…and without shedding of blood is no remission.” God sheltered Israel by the blood on the door, not by water.

Hebrews 9:22 allows no remission without shed blood, and God first taught that truth on the night of the Passover.

Jesus Christ, the Fulfillment of the Old Testament Sacrificial System
(Study Outline)

An Old Testament priest offering a lamb on the altar beside Jesus Christ crucified, illustrating that the sacrificial system pointed forward to Him

A study outline tracing the Old Testament sacrificial system to its fulfillment in Jesus Christ: the Lamb of God, His shed blood for the remission of sins, His one offering made once for all, and eternal life received through faith in Him.

Hope Renewed in the Faithfulness of the LORD:
Lamentations 3:21-23 Sermon and Study Outline

Hope Renewed in the Faithfulness of the LORD: His mercies are new every morning (Lamentations 3:22–23)

A sermon and study outline on Lamentations 3:21-23 (KJV). Hope begins with remembering the LORD, His mercies keep His people from being consumed, and they are new every morning because great is His faithfulness. Seven-step study with Hebrew word notes, preaching points and a printable Word outline.
