We must be redeemed from God, so we are forgiven of our sins from God

 

『And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying, Also on the tenth day of this seventh month there shall be a day of atonement: it shall be an holy convocation unto you; and ye shall afflict your souls, and offer an offering made by fire unto the LORD. And ye shall do no work in that same day: for it is a day of atonement, to make an atonement for you before the LORD your God. For whatsoever soul it be that shall not be afflicted in that same day, he shall be cut off from among his people. 』(Leviticus 23: 26-29)

『For whatsoever soul it be that shall not be afflicted in that same day, he shall be cut off from among his people. 』 Leviticus (23:29) speaks about the method of the Atonement. God told the Israelites to remember their pain and tribulation for ten days from the trumpet. After 10 days, it is the Atonement Day. Sukkot begins five days after Atonement. The trumpet means the harvest is over. Four months after Pentecost, the people finish the harvest and blow the trumpets. This means the end of the world. Today, we must remember the Israelite feast of the Old Testament, because God's work is done through the feast. On the Passover Jesus died on the cross as the Lamb, resurrected on the day of the feast, and on the day of Pentecost the Holy Spirit came. And on trumpet Jesus will return. But we do not know the exact day and time when Jesus returns.

There are five sacrifices in Leviticus, Leviticus (4:20) explains:

『And he shall do with the bullock as he did with the bullock for a sin offering, so shall he do with this: and the priest shall make an atonement for them, and it shall be forgiven them.』

The word atonement is redeem in English, and the apostle Paul spoke of redemption in Ephesians (1: 7):『In whom we have redemption through his blood, the forgiveness of sins, according to the riches of his grace; 』

Speaking of order, redemption must come first, and then remission of sins. Redemption is a quote from redemption of Leviticus (4:20). Redemption means: God frees sinners from Satan by buying sinners from the blood of Jesus. God does not wash away sinners' sins first, but God buys sinners from Satan and frees them. This is the concept of Yom Kippur.

『There were giants in the earth in those days; and also after that, when the sons of God came in unto the daughters of men, and they bare children to them, the same became mighty men which were of old, men of renown. 』 (Genesis 6: 4)

『Yom Kippur』 originated from "Rosin." "Painting rosin " means to cover the sin; This is kappar. Noah painted the interior with rosin inside the Ark.

In the Old Testament, there was a bronze altar in the sanctuary yard. When the priest lays hands on the Lamb, he passes the sinner's sins to the sheep. This is also redeem. So the dead lamb and sinner are one. If the sinner is not one with the Lamb, sin is not lost. The Israelites were not one with the Lamb. They did not recognize the meaning of redemption. The priest then washes the hands and feet of the sinner in the basin. After the priest washed the sinner, he could enter the sanctuary. Inside the sanctuary there is a cover, the redeem. The high priest entered the Most Holy Place once a year (July 10, the lunar calendar). There was an ark in the Most Holy Place. There was a cover called the Atonement on the ark. The cover is said Copert (meaning grace) in Hebrew. 

The day that covered the sins of all sinners was Yom Kippur. Thus, once a year, the high priest sprinkles the blood of the Lamb over the atonement, and the blood is covered.
In the New Testament, for this to happen, God must buy sinners from Satan by the blood of Jesus. When Jesus died on the cross (the veil was split in two parts) and was resurrected, he approached God on the throne as high priest. God pays the blood of Jesus to Satan for those who to repent.

Redemption is to pass over from God's judgment. So without redemption, there is no forgiveness. The sinner must be judged. But God intended to save repentant sinners. That is why the Son of God dies instead of a sinner, so God pays the price of blood to Satan. This is the amazing grace of God.  God gives love to those who repent. God does not love every human being. God is angry with all human beings except for the repentant sinner.

Today, if the church says, "If you believe in Jesus, you will be saved," or simply say, "If you accept Jesus, you will be saved." After discovering their present condition, people can repent of God. People must realize that they are the ones who are in darkness. So sinners must plead with God to escape from darkness. This is the beginning of repentance. It is not because we believe in Jesus, but God will do the repentant. The Bible explains this faith as a gift. There is no faith from God, but it is false to say that people believe in God.

Today, the word redemption is disappearing from the church. Job (19:25) says:『For I know that my redeemer liveth, and that he shall stand at the latter day upon the earth: 』 Today, like Job, we can be attacked by Satan. God allowed Satan to attack Job. Thus, God redeems those who repent. When the Hebrews were under Pharaoh's oppression, God freed them from Pharaoh, says in Exodus (6: 6):『Wherefore say unto the children of Israel, I am the LORD, and I will bring you out from under the burdens of the Egyptians, and I will rid you out of their bondage, and I will redeem you with a stretched out arm, and with great judgments: 』,

Deuteronomy (7: 8) also speaks.『But because the LORD loved you, and because he would keep the oath which he had sworn unto your fathers, hath the LORD brought you out with a mighty hand, and redeemed you out of the house of bondmen, from the hand of Pharaoh king of Egypt. 』 Redemption was used to mean liberation.

『Christ hath redeemed us from the curse of the law, being made a curse for us: for it is written, Cursed is every one that hangeth on a tree:』(Galatians 3:13),『To redeem them that were under the law, that we might receive the adoption of sons.』(Galatians 4: 5)

Humans became Satan's servants by Satan's temptation to "be like God." So humans are slaves to Satan, and they are living in sin. Although we realize sin but do not realize that we are in evil, we are not repentant. God tells us to remove evil rather than sin. This evil is the old man. Evil is covetousness. The repentant removes covetousness. The way to remove covetousness is to die on the cross with Jesus. Today, many churches are reducing the meaning of repentance. People think of repentance as confessing and reflecting on sin. But those who die of evil become repenters. Even if we are good at church for a long time, and if we reflect on sin every day, it is not clear because we do not to remove of evil. So every day, we make sin, and repent repeatly. Although we think that we are saved, If we don’t escape from evil, we do not repent. If we do not repent, covetousness still grasps our heart.
