Yahweh emphasizes many of His teaching and Instructions (Loving Torah)… Idols, gleaning, charity, (a good eye), being generous, having compassion; compassion for deaf and blind, of the false god Molech, child sacrifice, or even to him that looks on; wizards; sanctification; cursing your parents; adultery; incest; sodomy; bestiality; uncleanness; & obedience is required with holiness. Talk about all of these as these relate to YOU and Yours, physically and Spiritually. You can see a whole new kingdom opening up for you.
How are we to approach God? Do we come as we are, or do we need to make things right first?
Is it different for those who don't know God yet than it is for His priests? With knowledge comes responsibility. Things certainly changed for Adam and Eve once they received the Knowledge of Good and Evil - their relationship with God changed forever.
What offerings do we bring to God? Do we do it on our terms, or His? Do we follow the pagan practices of the culture, or do we live as the set-apart, holy people of Yahweh?
Can we experience oneness with Him (again)?
