| 0:00.0 | Welcome to One Minute Scripter Study, a Come Follow Me podcast. We are your host, Kristen Walker Smith, and Kelly Black. |
| 0:09.8 | Hey friend, it's Kristen. Grab your scriptures and let's dive into Leviticus 16 versus 10 and 21. When Moses and |
| 0:17.5 | the Israelites built a tabernacle in the wilderness, the Lord taught them how to worship in it. |
| 0:22.5 | One of the rituals he taught them was that of the scapegoat on the Day of Atonement. |
| 0:27.4 | The Day of Atonement was to be a holy day of fasting and prayer for the Israelites, when the high priest would enter the Holy of Holies to atone for the sins of the entire nation. Part of this ritual involved |
| 0:39.8 | multiple sacrifices, including a goat as a sin offering, quote, but the goat on which the lot fell |
| 0:46.4 | to be the scapegoat shall be presented alive before the Lord to make an atonement with him and to let him |
| 0:52.1 | go for a scapego into the wilderness. |
| 0:54.9 | So the high priest would perform specific ministrations and then, quote, |
| 0:59.1 | lay both his hands upon the head of the live goat and confess over him all the |
| 1:03.0 | iniquities of the children of Israel and all their transgressions in all their sins, |
| 1:07.8 | putting them upon the head of the goat and shall send him away by the hand of a fit |
| 1:12.5 | man into the wilderness. So the sins of the entire Israelite nation were symbolically placed on the goat, |
| 1:19.9 | who then carried them away from the congregation into the wilderness alone. Our savior likewise |
| 1:26.1 | carry the weight of all our sins. We are able to escape the cost of |
| 1:31.1 | those sins only because Jesus willingly carried them away from us in his solitary wilderness |
| 1:37.0 | with his atoning sacrifice and death. So the takeaway of the day in five words or less is, |
| 1:42.9 | Jesus is our scapegoat. |
| 1:45.5 | Thanks so much for being here today and for coming closer to Christ with me one minute at a time. |
| 1:50.8 | Hey, parents, have you broached the topic of Joseph Smith's plural marriages yet with your kids or race in the priesthood? |
| 1:58.1 | If you're feeling less than confident about what to say, you are going to |
