 some of the headings and paragraphs need to be re-alined. It is taking longer than I expected.. (I am presently editing this study)
Thank you for you patience.

The Heave, Drink and Wave Offerings

These "heave" offerings, "wave offerings
"(Exod.29:23-28)  and "drink offerings" where always used with these five Levitical Offerings. (Exod.29:18, 26-28, 38-41)
1. The "heave" offering
      The "Heave Offering"- (a present [as offered up] especially in sacrifice or tribute) The "heave offering was
      the shoulder of the burnt offering of consecration for Aaron.
(Exod.29:26)
2. The "wav
e" offering
      The "Wave Offering"- (To quiver, vibrate up and down -
Strong's) The "wave offering" was the breasts of the sacrifice
      (the burnt offering) that consecrated Aaron, the high priest.
(Exod.29:18, 26,) With the Peace offering.
     
(Lev.7:28-34) With the trespass offering. (Lev.14:12)
3. The "drink" offering.
      The "drink offering" was the flour, Oil and wine offered that was offered with the Burnt Offering
(Exod.29:38-41)0
      Paul spoke of being offered as a "drink offering" (
apparently a primary verb; to pour out as a libation, i.e. (figuratively)
      to devote (one's life or blood, as a sacrifice) ("spend") Strong's
(2Tim.4:6)


Conclusion: These Offerings are a "schoolmaster" (the blueprint) to bring us to Christ(Gal.3:24, Matt.5:17-19)

From "Adam to Moses sin was "not imputed" (Rom.5:12-14) because there was no law and man approached God through the coats of skins, (Gen.3:21) the firstlings (Lamb) of the flock, (Gen.4:1-4) and Altar, (Gen.8:20; 12:8)  Then God wanted  to "dwell among them" (Exod.25:8) which  brought knowledge, structure, principle, accountability. (With knowledge comes responsibility James.4:17, Rom.3:20) This pattern foreshadowed how to approach God's presence through Christ Jesus (Gal.3:24, Matt.5:17-19, Rom.3:21-31, Luke.24:27, 44-45) who came to bring "grace and truth."
 (John.1:17) Grace and truth does not destroy the "schoolmaster" pattern of the Sin Offering, Trespass Offering, Burnt Offering, Meal Offering and Peace Offering. Grace and truth includes every "jot"(the smallest letter in the Hebrew alphabet of these offerings) and "title"(the accent on certain letters of these offerings) in Himself. (Matt.5:17-19)
Law and Grace does not void each other. (Rom.3:31)

To summarize:

1. The Sin Offering
      This was the "the schoolmaster to bring us" to the absolute command to accept The Lord Jesus Christ as our
      Lord and Savior. (There is no choice) The Bride that the Father God is preparing for His Son will have this offering
      fulfilled in their lives.
2. The Trespass Offering
      This is the schoolmaster to bring us to" the mandatory / compulsory forgiveness towards one another in Christ
      Jesus. There will be no trespasses / faults in the Bride of Christ, because He cannot be unequally yoked with
      unforgiving. (faults)
                     

3. The Burnt Offering
      This is "the schoolmaster to bring us to" the voluntary consecrating / separate of ourselves completely to God
      will in our lives. The "glorious church without spot or wrinkle" (The Bride) will want to freely (voluntarily) dedicate
      themselves to love and serve Him. The questions is, "do we want to marry Christ for His money (so-to-speak) or
      because we love Him?"

4. The Meal Offering
      This is "the schoolmaster to bring us to" freely giving of our material things (good works) The "glorious Church"
      (The Bride of Christ) will not neglect this offering.

5. The Peace offering
      This is "the schoolmaster to bring us to" freely worship God in thanksgiving and praise, "according to the pattern"
      that God gave David, a "man after God's own heart." The Bride will "continually" have a praise on her lips, "giving
           thanks to His name. 


These statutes are "forever." (not destroyed)

Jesus came, fulfilled the Law (i.e. the type and the shadow
Matt.5:17-19, Rom.10:4, Heb.9:1-11)
The only way they are forever, (Lev.3:17; 6:18, 22; 7:34) is to continue in their fulfillment in Christ. 
 

My check list before going to the House of God to offer
my "spiritual" offerings.
(Eccl.5:1-5)

1.  Have I taken care of my Sin Offering? - You must (compulsory) be born again." Have you
     received Christ as your personal Saviour?
2.  Do you have any unresolved trespasses / unforgiveness towards anyone? You must
     (Compulsory) forgive. No options!  (Trespass Offering)
3.  These must be taken care of BEFORE drawing nigh to God.
(James.4:8)
4.  Are you prepared to freely present yourself as a living, consecrated, separated sacrifice (The 
     Burnt Offering) unto the Lord?

     Note: Remember that when you raise hands in worship, it is "as even the evening sacrifice."
    
(Psalm.141:2) The Burnt offering of consecration and separation. Don't be "rash with your mouth."
     (Eccl.5:1-5) "Be swift to hear, slow to speak..." (James.1:19) Don't make promises (vows) to  
     God on Sunday that you have no intentions of keeping throughout the next week!


5.  Have you freely given of your money and material things to those that have need. (1John.3:17, 
     Acts.4:32-37, James.2:15)
or have you said, "Depart in peace, be ye warmed and filled; 
     notwithstanding ye give them not those things which are needful; what does it profit."
6.  When you enter the House of God, do you give thanks freely and without blemishes
7.  None of these offerings can be "blemished." (Review: "Blemishes")  You may be offering the 
     "form" (2Tim.3:5) of these offerings, but giving the lame, blind, scabbed. (Mal.1:6-10; 3:8)


_____________________________________________

1. The Sin, Trespass, and burnt offerings were made for atonement, but the Peace offering was only for thanksgiving. Before offering the incense upon the Golden Altar, the individual must have FIRST offered atonement upon the Brazen Altar. No blood sacrifice can be made on the Golden Altar. (Exod.30:9) 
2. Review: The Five Levitical Offerings, (page 1 of 2)  #3 Only the priests could offer sacrifice.
3. Think on this!  It was "the sound of...all kinds of music" that caused the people to "fall down and worship the image" that
Nebuchadnezzar had made. This is consider by most to be a foreshadowing of the Music is a international language.
