5So they took what Moses had commanded to the front of the Tent of Meeting, and the whole congregation drew near and stood before the LORD. 6And Moses said, “This is what the LORD has commanded you to do, so that the glory of the LORD may appear to you.”
7Then Moses said to Aaron, “Approach the altar and sacrifice your sin offering and your burnt offering to make atonement for yourself and for the people. And sacrifice the people’s offering to make atonement for them, as the LORD has commanded.”
If you read this scripture and understood it completely you see Aaron had to make atonement for his sin also because he is “only a man”.
Just because he is a priest, pastor, preacher or leader doesn’t mean he isn’t human and without sin. He is “only a man”.
We see how Peter reacted when Cornelius tried to worship him.
Acts 10: 25As Peter was about to enter, Cornelius met him and fell at his feet to worship him. 26But Peter helped him up. “Stand up,” he said, “I am only a man myself.”
We can hold our leaders in high regard and be respectful to them but remember they are “only a man”.
Everyone is a sinner and he who claims they don’t just sinned because he just lied! Remember he is “only a man”.
Are you without sin?
Blessings, David
