Atonement: Restoring the Rift - Gateway Church Shabbat Message

Описание: What does atonement really mean? Is it just a covering for sin, or something far greater—restoring the rift between God and His people? In this powerful Shabbat Service message at Gateway Church, Pastor David Blease unpacks the biblical meaning of Yom Kippur (the Day of Atonement) and connects it to God’s heart for restoration of Jew and Gentile through Yeshua, the Lamb of God who takes away the sin of the world.

From the sacrifices in Leviticus to the finished work of Messiah on the cross, this message explores:
✅ The difference between “covering” sin and “removing” sin
✅ How Jesus fulfilled and completed what the Day of Atonement pointed to
✅ Why God’s plan of restoration is not only vertical (between us and God) but also horizontal (between Jew & Gentile, brothers & sisters in Christ)
✅ The prophetic call of Shabbat to bring Jews and Gentiles together as one new man in Messiah

This teaching will deepen your understanding of the Jewish roots of the faith, stir your heart for God’s ongoing covenant with Israel, and call you into the life-changing reality of reconciliation that only comes through Yeshua.

Whether you are Jewish or Gentile, longtime believer or new to the faith, this message will inspire you to walk in your God-given identity, embrace covenant interdependence, and pursue the restoration that Jesus purchased once and for all—paid in full.

📖 Key Scriptures: Leviticus 16, Hebrews 10, John 1:29, Ephesians 2, Romans 11, Romans 15
