Take time with your family to discuss these questions (or variations of these questions) together, and reflect on this week’s truth and Word.
1. QUESTION: Who was allowed to enter the tabernacle to meet with God? How often could that person meet with God? How did he have to prepare? What does this tell us about God?
TAKEAWAY: God is holy.
2. QUESTION: Why do you think the other Israelites couldn't go into the tabernacle? Why was a sacrifice needed? Can sin be in the presence of a holy God?
TAKEAWAY: We are sinful and therefore separated from a holy God.
3. QUESTION: Because our holy God cannot be in the presence of sin, how did he make it possible for the Israelites to be in relationship with him? What did the two goats symbolize for the Israelites about their sin?
TAKEAWAY: Through a substitute sacrifice, God forgives and forgets our sin.
4. QUESTION: How is Jesus like the two goats on the Day of Atonement? How is Jesus better than the two goats?
TAKEAWAY: Jesus is the ultimate substitute sacrifice.
