Atonement Sermon from New Zealand
Day of Atonement in New Zealand
The Day of Atonement lasts until sunset October 4, 2014. The Continuing Church of God is pleased to announce a sermon which is at its ContinuingCOG channel, that was recorded in New Zealand on the Day of Atonement:
1:10:30
Day of Atonement: How Jesus fulfilled His part for the Atonement
The Jews call it Yom Kippur, Christians “The Day of Atonement.” Does it have any relevance for Christians today? Was it observed in the New Testament? What did some of the ancient Hebrew ceremonies surrounding it mean? How does any of this represent Jesus Christ? Does one goat in Leviticus represent Jesus and the other Satan? How does the New Testament help answer this?
The New Testament shows that the the Gentile Gospel writer Luke knew about the Day of Atonement, when he wrote:
9…sailing was now dangerous because the Fast was already over (Acts 27:9).
The Statement of Beliefs of the Continuing Church of God states this about the Day of Atonement (and more detail is in the article The Day of Atonement–Its Christian Significance):
The Day of Atonement, called “the Fast” in the New Testament (Acts 27:9), helps show our own weaknesses and need to be closer to God (Isaiah 58:5,11). It also helps picture that Satan has a role in the sins of humankind and that he will be bound for one-thousand years (Revelation 20:1-3; cf. Leviticus 16:20-26; Isaiah 14:12-16).

Atonement Offertory Should an offering be taken up on the Day of Atonement? What does the Bible seem to teach about that? Was Jesus a type of atonement offering? If you send an offering, how does that support the work? Does God need your money or do you need to give? Dr. Thiel goes over scriptures and facts related to this.
