Leviticus 1:3-17; 6:8-13

November 12, 2021

Worship is not just a feeling—it’s a picture. The first part of Leviticus outlines the burnt offerings and their significance. Every detail is incredibly important, as each instruction serves a unique purpose. Think of Leviticus as a Divine tapestry. Every mundane, lonely thread of instruction is carefully woven by God’s hand. In the end, the picture will be more beautiful than you could have imagined.

We left God’s people at the end of Exodus with a finished Tabernacle. God’s presence moved from Mount Sinai into the new Tabernacle, and He now calls His people to Him in this holy place of worship. Our tour guide, Dr. McGee, regards Leviticus as “one of the most important books of the Bible.” Let’s find out why.

“The cross is both the greatest tragedy of the ages and the most glorious victory of earth and heaven,” says Dr. J. Vernon McGee. Sin and Jesus are trying to destroy each other. Study the sacrifice in Mark 15. Jesus wants our faith more than our sympathy. Come learn more of what Jesus did for you.

Imagine you were one of Jesus’ disciples, sitting with Him at the Last Supper or praying with Him in the garden. Those moments might have felt sad, scary, or confusing. In our study of Mark 14, take a closer look at the interactions between Jesus and His friends on their last night together.

Nothing is a surprise to God. In Jesus’ last days before the crucifixion, He knew everything that was coming. Follow along as Dr. McGee takes us through the first half of Mark 14, where the Pharisees plot to kill Jesus, Mary anoints Him, and Judas plans to betray Him.

When you know something is going to be good, the anticipation is delightful. Jesus was going to leave earth soon, but He promised the disciples He would return. In Mark 13—often called the Olivet Discourse—Jesus taught the disciples about the end days and things to come. He encouraged them to have no fear, share the gospel with all, and excitedly anticipate His return.

Jesus can read minds and hearts. Mark 12 gives context to many of Jesus’ important parables and teaching. Some of the people questioning Him were sincere; some wanted to trap Him. Jesus read each of their hearts and answered accordingly.

The battle between our flesh and the Spirit is real. One moment, the Spirit sings “Hosanna!”—another moment, the flesh yells, “Crucify Him!” In Mark 11, Jesus’ triumphal entry into Jerusalem is His statement of authority and a fulfillment of Old Testament prophecy. Follow along as Dr. McGee explains this important moment and pay attention to the way people treat Jesus before His crucifixion.

No question is too hard for Jesus. The Pharisees tried to trap Him with difficult questions, but He always knew what to say. In Mark 10, Jesus lovingly sets the record straight about marriage and divorce. But more importantly, He reveals the brokenness of mankind, the emptiness of religious systems, and our desperate need for a Savior.

About Dr. J. Vernon McGee

John Vernon McGee was born in Hillsboro, Texas, in 1904. Dr. McGee remarked, "When I was born and the doctor gave me the customary whack, my mother said that I let out a yell that could be heard on all four borders of Texas!" His Creator well knew that he would need a powerful voice to deliver a powerful message.

After completing his education (including a Th.M. and Th.D. from Dallas Theological Seminary), he and his wife came west, settling in Pasadena, California. Dr. McGee's greatest pastorate was at the historic Church of the Open Door in downtown Los Angeles, where he served from 1949 to 1970.

He began teaching Thru the Bible in 1967. After retiring from the pastorate, he set up radio headquarters in Pasadena, and the radio ministry expanded rapidly. Listeners never seem to tire of Dr. J. Vernon McGee's unique brand of rubber-meets-the-road teaching, or his passion for teaching the whole Word of God.

On the morning of December 1, 1988, Dr. McGee fell asleep in his chair and quietly passed into the presence of his Savior.
