Numbers 16:48 KJV
And he stood between the dead and the living; and the plague was stayed.
God's people, after seeing the hand of the Lord in confirming Moses and Aaron, responded by accusing Moses and Aaron of killing the rebels. God was about to kill the whole congregation but Moses instructed Aaron to take a censer of incense and run into the midst of the congregation to save them.
Amazing! Moses still loved this nation and Aaron still ministered to them!
As a part of my daily Bible reading, I also read Acts 5 this morning. I saw it as the New Testament counterpart for Aaron's censor of incense. There was Peter and the other apostles once again in the midst of a murmuring Israel, preaching
Acts 5:30-32 KJV
The God of our fathers raised up Jesus, whom ye slew and hanged on a tree.
Him hath God exalted with his right hand to be a Prince and a Saviour, for to give repentance to Israel, and forgiveness of sins.
And we are his witnesses of these things; and so is also the Holy Ghost, whom God hath given to them that obey him.
We stand today, between the dead and the living as witnesses with the message that God has exalted Jesus Christ to be a Prince and Saviour to give repentance and forgiveness of sins.
Some will accept it and the plaque of sin in their life will be stayed. Others will reject and face eternal death in hell.
