Sacrifice

Scripture Passage: Hebrews 9:13-14

Moses, the great Jewish leader, taught them to sacrifice bulls, sheep and goats. The Jews would pour out the blood as a libation to God. Then God would forgive their sins. Jesus is our perfect sacrifice. His blood was poured out on the cross for the forgiveness of our sins. (John 19:34) When we accept His sacrifice for us, we do not need to sacrifice animals anymore. God forgives us because the blood of Jesus is sufficient.
