Sheep
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.
