“And if his oblation be a sacrifice of peace offering, if he offer it of the herd; whether it be a male or female, he shall offer it without blemish before the LORD.”
Leviticus 3:1 KJV
A peace offering is different from burnt offerings and sin offerings because it seeks peace and fellowship with God. This is the only offering that is eaten both by the priest and the offerer as God enjoys intimacy by sharing a feast. In Christ, Jesus Himself is our peace, Who has made both one, and has broken down the middle wall of partition between us; for through Him we both have access by One Spirit to the Father. In Christ, the Lamb of God was slain and shed His Blood to bring perfect peace between us and God as a pleasing aroma. Because Christ lives in us by faith, we are God’s peace offering standing in the gap between God and mankind. By the Blood of Jesus, we enjoy both our relationship and fellowship with God the Father, God the Son and God the Holy Spirit. Hallelujah!
