NO SACRIFICE WITHOUT BLOOD


***Hebrew 9:13-14***
Through the BLOOD of sacrificed animals, God cleansed people from sin, making them ceremonially acceptable according to the Old Testament law. But Christ's sacrifice transforms our lives and hearts and makes us clean on the inside. His sacrifice is infinitely more effective than animal sacrifice.
...
***Hebrew 10:5-7***
The costly sacrifice of a valued animal's life impressed upon the sinner the seriousness of sin before God. Because Jesus shed His own BLOOD for us, His sacrifice is infinitely BIGGER than any Old Testament offering. Looking at the immeasurable gift He has given us, we should be overwhelmed with desire to obey Him.
