The Sacrificial System  by Mark S. Camp

   Five types of offerings:

   1. BURNT OFFERING - Leviticus 1:1-17, 6:8-13

   Made a propitiation (means of removal or appeasement) for sin in
general; was a means of approach by unholy people to a holy God; was an
act of total commitment.

   2. GRAIN OFFERING - Leviticus 2:1-16, 6:14-18

   Also known as the MEAT or MEAL OFFERING. An offering in which the
believer presents himself for God's service, vows to walk in the fruits
of holiness, and shows thanksgiving for the
atonement received.

   3. FELLOWSHIP OFFERING - Leviticus 3:1-17, 7:11-36

   Also known as the PEACE OFFERING. An act of communion or
   fellowship meal with God, resulting from the praise and
   thankfulness of past blessings, in acknowledgment of present,
unexpected blessings, and in anticipation of future blessings.

   4. SIN OFFERING - Leviticus 4:1-5:13, 6:24-30

   Secures forgiveness for sins committed after atonement has been made
and accepted; particularly, sins which are committed in ignorance or
without thinking.

   5. TRESPASS OFFERING - Leviticus 5:14-6:7, 7:1-10

   Offered on account of injury to someone else or his property, as
well as to God. Always accompanied by a fine equal to the value of the
injury done plus an additional one-fifth.

   Three essential elements in offerings:

   1. BLOOD - represented life

   2. ALTAR - represented sacrifice or surrender

   3. FIRE - represented purification and/or destruction
