Subject: Blood sacrifices during the Millenium? |
Bible Note: Dear thelema, No, Jesus, the Christ-Messiah, was not sent to fulfil all the legal criteria for blood sacrifice as prescribed by the Law. He came to fulfil all the graceful criteria of the Messiah as prescribed by the Prophets. No Jew EVER did (or could) fulfill all of the criteria of the Law. This is precisely why the Lord gave us a new covenant based on grace. Btw, this same grace was already being applied to His people in the Old Testament. Otherwise, virtually every saint would have been sentenced to death for their stiff-necked attitude toward God and-or their inability to keep all of the Law. In any case, Jesus was not exactly a "human sacrifice" in the sense you seem to be saying. Especially since He was not offered to Baal. As a matter of fact, your denial of Jesus' atoning blood would also negate the Old Testament references concerning the Messiah. Peace to you in Christ Jesus, charis |
