Disagree, agree, or have a question: Contact us through the contact page on our website; http://www.biblebulldog.com Chapters 1 – 6 – Offerings. Question: How does the concept of sacrificial offerings throughout Leviticus foreshadow Christ's sacrifice (Leviticus 1-7)? Answer: The sacrificial system, with the innocent animal taking the place of the guilty person (atonement), foreshadows Christ as the perfect Lamb of God, sacrificing himself for the sins of humanity (John 1:29). 1-3 Sweet savor offerings (person of Christ). Chapter 1 – Burnt Offerings (Christ our substitute). Covenant Head and Substitutionary Atonement: Leviticus 1 details the burnt offering, a perfect animal offered entirely to God. Within a Reformed framework, how does this offering foreshadow Christ's role as our Covenant Head, taking the place of his elect people and bearing the full brunt of God's wrath for their sin, fulfilling the demands of the broken covenant? Discuss scriptural support for this interpretation from places like Isaiah 53:4-6, Romans 5:12-19, and 2 Corinthians 5:21. Sinlessness and Imputation: The burnt offering requires a blemish-free animal (Leviticus 1:3). How does this foreshadow the sinlessness of Christ, essential for his role as a perfect sacrifice? How does this connect to the Reformed doctrine of imputation, where Christ's righteousness is credited to believers, while their sins are imputed to him on the cross? Explore scripture passages like Hebrews 4:15, 1 Peter 2:22, and Romans 3:21-26 to support your discussion. Limited vs. Full Atonement: Leviticus outlines a sacrificial system requiring continual offerings. How does this foreshadow the sufficiency and finality of Christ's sacrifice on the cross, according to the Reformed doctrine of Limited Atonement? Discuss the concept of Christ's sacrifice atoning for the elect only, contrasted with a universal atonement view. Find support from scripture passages like John 10:11-15, Romans 8:28-30, and Ephesians 1:3-14.

Cardiac Cowboys
The heart was always off-limits to surgeons. Cutting into it spelled instant death for the patient. That is, until a ragtag group of doctors scattered across the Midwest and Texas decided to throw out the rule book. Working in makeshift laboratories and home garages, using medical devices made from scavenged machine parts and beer tubes, these men and women invented the field of open heart surgery. Odds are, someone you know is alive because of them. So why has history left them behind? Presented by Chris Pine, CARDIAC COWBOYS tells the gripping true story behind the birth of heart surgery, and the young, Greatest Generation doctors who made it happen. For years, they competed and feuded, racing to be the first, the best, and the most prolific. Some appeared on the cover of Time Magazine, operated on kings and advised presidents. Others ended up disgraced, penniless, and convicted of felonies. Together, they ignited a revolution in medicine, and changed the world.
