Reading Leviticus can be a difficult task for Bible readers, especially the parts including detailed descriptions of rituals and laws. However, none of these details are unnecessary because they highlight with great importance true spiritual realities.

An example of this is Leviticus 15. During my home Bible study, our group discussed the topic of the regulation of bodily discharges. Amazingly, we received revelation regarding this. We came to understand that this is a picture of spiritual discharge that wasn’t healed. Here is the excerpt from our reading.

When you have a serious cut or wound, it’s important to stop the bleeding and keep the wound clean and dry so that it can heal. Otherwise, you run the risk of infection. During times of war, many people died from untreated injuries. The wounds themselves were not life-threatening, but the infection that followed caused death. Both blood and water play an important role in guarding against infection. Blood cleans the wound as it flows through the damaged tissue, washing away dirt and killing bacteria. Later, it creates a scab, allowing the wound to heal. Not only do we need blood to cleanse from the inside, but we also need water (another disinfectant) to clean the outside. The wound needs to be washed to remove toxins trying to enter from the outside world. Otherwise, the germs will get into the blood stream and damage the body.

The same is true spiritually. As Christians, our sins are cleansed by the blood of Jesus. He washes away our stains. Revelation 1:5 says that Jesus “loved us and washed us from our sins in His own blood” (NKJV). His blood cleanses us as we repent and confess our sins. However, we also need to be washed externally. Ephesians 5:26 says that Jesus wants to “cleanse [the church] with the washing of water by the word” (NKJV). We need to wash away the worldly influences in our lives. Otherwise, the infection of sin will quickly and insidiously sneak in from the outside. Before we have a chance to confess it and turn to the Lord for cleansing, sin will infiltrate our lives. When we fail to receive the washing of Jesus’ word and blood, our uncleanness can cause permanent damage to our bodies and to the body of Christ. Just like an infection can cause irreversible damage and death, unrepentant sin can also bring chastisement and discipline. The Bible makes it very clear that some brothers and sisters who ate the bread and drank the cup of the Lord unworthily, would sleep (physically die) because of their uncleansed sin (1 Cor. 11:30).

So, what does discharge refer to spiritually? Discharge represents wounds that aren’t healing. Whether it is the discharge of blood, pus, or other things, these physical wounds aren’t healing. You may think, “Why won’t the wounds heal? Shouldn’t blood automatically condense into scabs and heal naturally?” Yes, this is normally the case. However, if bacteria and contamination from the external environment have continuously interfered with healing, the wound will become infected, and emit a discharge. This discharge results in a wound that never heals. So, unhealed sins can cause a “spiritual discharge.” Just like an infected wound oozes pus, unconfessed sin releases a discharge that is difficult to cure. We must be careful not to allow sinful influences to pile up, or they will become an overwhelming force that will cause irreversible damage.

I hope this excerpt helped you. You can continue reading our material to find more spiritual applications from the details inside the pages of the book of Leviticus.
