1 | Blood sacrifices during the Millenium? | Heb 10:12 | thelema | 111833 | ||
And so, we are to believe that Jesus dying on the cross fulfilled the requirements of a blood sacrifice. There are a number of requirements for a sacrifice to be valid or it is completely disqualified and will be an abomination to G-d. These requirements are as follows: 1. The sin offering must be brought forth by the person seeking atonement, and slaughtered either by the sinner or by the priest. 2. Death must be caused by a sharp, perfect blade cutting across the neck, resulting in blood loss and swift death. 3. The offering must be physically unblemished. 4. In the case of mammal offerings (bulls, lambs, etc.) the offering must be less than one year old. 5. In the case of mammal offerings, the mammal must have cloven hooves and chew cud. 6. The sacrifice must be brought at the Temple 7. The sacrifice must have its blood taken by a priest and sprinkled on the altar. 8. The sacrifice must be salted. Since Jesus did not fulfill even one of the eight precepts listed above, it's clear that his death could not be the atoning sacrifice Christians claim it is. Deuteronomy 4:2 Ye shall not add unto the word which I command you, neither shall ye diminish [ought] from it, that ye may keep the commandments of the LORD your G-d which I command you. (KJV) Deuteronomy 12:32 What thing soever I command you, observe to do it: thou shalt not add thereto, nor diminish from it. (KJV) Twice we see a prohibition of going against the Torah’s precepts. This should tell you it’s an important law to follow. Does G-d desire human sacrifice? Deuteronomy 12:31 Thou shalt not do so unto the LORD thy G-d: for every abomination to the LORD, which he hateth, have they done unto their gods; for even their sons and their daughters they have burnt in the fire to their gods. (KJV) So, we see just how highly the Almighty thinks of human sacrifice. |

2 | Blood sacrifices during the Millenium? | Heb 10:12 | justme | 112154 | ||
thelema: You have been forthright in your profile with you beliefs, and that is quite unusual. I respect your right to bring to the forum a dialogue that offers us an oppertunity to more fully understand others beliefs. You seem to have a solid understanding of the old Testament rituals, and the sacrifical requirements. That too is unique for most that I have encountered. I too have a copy of the Torah, and took a couple of classes from Rabbi Zedick. I found the class very enlightening and quite interesting, it was instruction I find useful even to this day. I find many Christians fail to understand that paticularly the book Deuteronomy is still a valid book of Scripture that gives advice as how we are to conduct our relationships, and protect our health. God's Word is living and active forever. I look to hear from you. Blessings. justme |
