  1. Strangefire Leviticus 10:1-3

  2. Jesus knew that worshiping in error would be a big problem. • “The hour cometh, and now is, when the true worshippers shall worship the Father in spirit and in truth: for the Father seeketh such to worship him. God is a Spirit: and they that worship him must worship him in spirit and in truth” (Jn 4:23-24). • “This people draweth nigh unto me with their mouth, and honoureth me with their lips; but their heart is far from me. But in vain they do worship me, teaching for doctrines the commandments of men” (Matt 15:8-9).

  3. “God deserves to be honored in worship.”

  4. Leviticus 10:1-3

  5. What did Nadab and Abihu do wrong? • Nadab and Abihu did not get their fire from the altar of burnt offering (Lev 16:12). • Nadab and Abihu appear to have entered the Holy Place at the wrong time (Lev 16:1-2). • God tells Aaron not to drink wine or strong drink when they minister in the tabernacle lest they die (Lev 10:8-11).

  6. Leviticus 10:1-3

  7. “There came a fire out from before the Lord, and consumed upon the altar the burnt offering and the fat: which when all the people saw, they shouted, and fell on their faces” (Lev 9:24). • Both are fires of “judgment”: • With the burnt offering, God is showing pleasure with the way that Aaron and his sons worshiped. • With Nadab and Abihu, God is showing displeasure with the way that Aaron’s sons worshiped.

  8. Leviticus 10:1-3

  9. “God deserves to be honored in worship.”

  10. We need to make sure our worship is always authorized. • We need to make sure our hearts honor God in worship. • Sometimes the heart is absent from worship altogether. • “This people draweth nigh unto me with their mouth, and honoureth me with their lips; but their heart is far from me” (Matt 15:8). • Where is your heart this morning?
