“If a soul commit a trespass, and sin through ignorance, in the holy things of the LORD; then he shall bring for his trespass unto the LORD a ram without blemish out of the flocks, with thy estimation by shekels of silver, after the shekel of the sanctuary, for a trespass offering:”
Leviticus 5:15 KJV
Every offering mentioned in the old covenant is a shadow of the perfect sacrifice of our Lord Jesus Christ, an illustration of our life in Christ. Trespasses are guilt sins: when you withhold the truth, knowing the truth and hiding it; or touching unclean things like unclean thoughts, words and emotions; rash vows which you make and fail to fulfil. The moment you become aware of your trespass or guilt, as a new creation in Christ, allow the Holy Spirit to convict you so that you are able to acknowledge and confess it. Then immediately plead the Blood of your Saviour on your behalf and receive His atoning Sacrifice for yourself personally. You are elect according to the foreknowledge of God the Father, through sanctification of the Spirit, to obedience and sprinkling of the Blood of Jesus Christ. What an awesome restitution! What a wonderful Saviour! Our God and our Lord!
