In today's reading do we not find the beginnings of ordination and the doctrine of atonement? Here is the passage.
Moses then said to Aaron and his sons, "Cook the meat at the entrance to the Tent of Meeting and eat it there with the bread from the basket of ordination offerings, as I commanded, saying, 'Aaron and his sons are to eat it.' Then burn up the rest of the meat and the bread. Do not leave the entrance to the Tent of Meeting for seven days, until the days of your ordination are completed, for your ordination will last seven days. What has been done today was commanded by the LORD to make atonement for you. You must stay at the entrance to the Tent of Meeting day and night for seven days and do what the LORD requires, so you will not die; for that is what I have been commanded." So Aaron and his sons did everything the LORD commanded through Moses.
Also, we read a powerful passage about facing trouble..."For he has delivered me from all my troubles, and my eyes have looked in triumph on my foes." This is the kind of faith that changes the world in troubled times! Is this not a message of "Triumphant living in troubled times?"
