Smelling good!

As a reread through the first chapters of Leviticus,

it dawns on me just how much God really likes certain smells.

Almost all of the offerings mentioned in these chapters are a sweet aroma unto the Lord.

 

And if we turn the page to the New Testament, we find that:

 

  • God likes how you and Marcos smell

For we are the aroma of Christ to God among those who are being saved

and among those who are perishing, 

to one a fragrance from death to death, to the other a fragrance from life to life.

2 Corinthians 2.25-16

 

  • He loves the smell of Jesus on the the cross

Christ loved us and gave himself up for us, a fragrant offering and sacrifice to God. 

Ephesians 5.2

 

  • He loves the smell of our giving.

I am well supplied, having received from Epaphroditus the gifts you sent,

a fragrant offering, a sacrifice acceptable and pleasing to God. 

Philippians 4.18

 

 

I certainly do not want to smell like Lazarus.

Like his sister said, “He stinketh.”

John 11.39 [KJV]
