The Untouchable Uncleanness of Death

Summary

The sermon explores the Old Testament law concerning the uncleanness of touching a dead body, focusing on the ritual of the red heifer in Numbers 19 as a foreshadowing of Christ's sacrifice. It emphasizes that while the law declared uncleanness and separation due to death, Christ has the power to make the unclean clean through His touch, overcoming death and sin. The preacher contrasts the limitations of the law with the transformative power of Jesus, who willingly touched the unclean and brought healing and purification. The message concludes with an invitation to embrace the cleansing power of Christ, who makes sinners holy and alive.
