Sermon Overview
Reidhead uses the "Red Heifer" as a type of Christ's sacrifice. He emphasizes that the "ashes" were kept for the "Water of Separation," used to cleanse those who touched "death." He argues that the believer needs a "Daily Cleansing" from the "Spirit of Death" (the world) to maintain fellowship with a Holy God.
Key Principles
Spotless Type: Look to Christ as the "Red Heifer" whose death provided a "Perpetual Cleansing" for you.
Ashes of Permanence:Rely on the "permanence" of the sacrifice; the "ashes" of Christ’s work never lose their power.
Water of Separation:Apply the "Water" (The Word) daily to separate yourself from the defilement of "death."
Daily Cleansing: Practice "Relational Cleansing" (confession) to keep your felt-fellowship with a Holy God clear.
Fellowship Purity:Realize that a "Holy God" will not maintain felt-fellowship with a defiled or careless heart.
Relational Cleansing:Distinguish between your "legal standing" (saved) and your "relational walk" (cleansed).
Role of the Word: Use the "Water of the Word" as your daily cleansing agent to remove the "soot" of the world.
Transparent Walk:Maintain a "transparent" life before God, refusing to let even "small" defilements remain unwashed.
