OT: Numbers. Who saves you from God?

Before we answer the intriguing question 'Who saves you from God [when you've made him angry]?' let's read some Bible.

Start with Numbers 3:1-13, where the Levites are chosen as a priests, then have a sneaky-peek into the New Testament at 1 Peter 2:1-10.

When I read accounts of medieval Roman Catholic Christianity and their reaction to Wycliffe, I want to get out my time-travelling giant wet trout and do some serious slapping. Wycliffe was denounced as a heretic, blasphemous, satanic person, because he believed 1) there was no need for special priests to get access to God's grace and 2) the Bible was a good thing to follow in living your life, so everyone should be able to read it in their own language.
Now I've over-simplified this, and you can read more yourself, but that's the gist.
Read 1 Peter 2 again, and tell me Wycliffe was wrong...I dare you!

Key point 1: we are all Go'd chosen priests if we say we are his.

Now trundle on to Numbers 16-17 and have a read - there's a lot of death here, so don't do it on a full stomach. You can find out what Paul thinks about it in 1 Corinthians 10 as well, if you fancy some more background reading.
So this brings us to my question. When God gets angry like in this passage, who can save us from him? And more importantly, does he still get this mad?

The answer to the first question is tough, and can cause people to question God. The answer looks like it should be Jesus - after all, it took Moses and Aaron interceding here to save the people, and we have Jesus as our intercessor, right?
But if God is love, why would we need saving from him? I agree with a point Rob Bell pushes in his book 'Love Wins' - I don't need saving from God, I need saving by God.
It's an important point too, because if we have a picture of God as someone we need saving from, then that's going to mess our relationship with him up big time.

Key point 2: Jesus died for the sins of the whole world - things like this won't happen anymore, because Jesus has ALREADY paid the price.

That was hard work - please ask questions or make comments if you're not sure, because it's something that will probably leave most of us still scratching our heads a little.

Key point 3: it's okay to have questions, ask questions, and not fully understand the miracle of our salvation.
A miracle means something 'highly improbable or extraordinary' according to Google, so I think it's okay to be unsure for now. We'll find out all about in heaven, and that, at least for me, is something to really look forward to!
