We start a new segment of Leviticus, looking at what is “clean” and “unclean” for the Israelites. We must remember that “unclean” is not necessarily bad, it just means that it is not holy or fit for use in worship of God in the tabernacle. Being “clean” or “unclean” was a designation related to someone’s ability to participate in the worship at the tabernacle. If you were “unclean,” you had to go through the cleansing process to be...

In this Bible study, we focus on Revelation 3.14-22. This is a message from Jesus to the church of Laodicea.

The church in Laodicea thought they were rich and successful, when in God’s eyes, they were weak and spiritually useless. Laodicea was judging itself on the world’s standard, not God’s.
