Bible Question:
I recently sat under the teaching of a DD, who stated that there would be blood sacrifices, by Christians, during the Millenium. He said there would be no other way the point the unsaved offspring of the Christians to the Cross of Jesus. I believe that we will reign with Christ over the remainder of humanity. We will have glorified bodies, with out aging, death and sin, no sexual desires or pro-creation. Further, I believe that there will never again be blood sacrifices for the remission of sin, not even for a remerance, like communion. Please show me where to search out scripture to refute this DD. |
Bible Answer: Nrojac, I truly do not mean for this note to be disrespectful to you or anyone else in anyway whatsoever, however, I do intend it to be firm and serious. The dispensational idea of blood sacrifices at "ANY" time since Christ's once and for all blood sacrifice is blashpemy and the epistle to the Hebrews clearly warns those who do not accept the finished work of Christ as the only propitiatory redemptive act that they cannot redeem themselves again through vainful human effort of repetitive acts of blood sacrifices. What you are talking about is nothing more than imaginative eschatology. There is no such thing as a future "literal" millennium, rebuilt temple and especially blood sacrifice. This is nowhere found in scripture. It sounds like this DD is a hyper-dispensationalist who really doesn't understand the scriptures. The typical place dispensationalists use to teach a future temple and sacrifices is in Ezekiel 40 and further. The supposed future earthly millennium is Revelation 20:4. You are correct in not believing in a future blood sacrifice for the remission of sin or as a remembrance of "anything". Sam Hughey |
