pure offering
Clean oblation
An unbloody sacrifice

25 If we live in the Spirit, let us also walk in the Spirit.
Again you are mixing the meaning of words.
Yes Jesus offered one sacrifice, Once. It is not a sacrifice to be offered for all eternity but one sacrifice whose affects lasts for eternity.
There is no need of priests offering there magic.
All Christians are sons of God with the right of access into Gods presence.
that somehow makes you priests of the order of melchisedec with the right to offer the sacrifice of Christ and forgive sins?
As an adopted child and co heir with Christ I have no need of a priest, I have no sacrifice to offer as Jesus made the one eternal sacrifice.
No I cannot forgive sins, only Jesus can do that.
that’s not biblical

explain rev 5:5 And one of the elders saith unto me, Weep not: behold, the Lion of the tribe of Judah, the Root of David, hath prevailed to open the book, and to loose the seven seals thereof.
6 And I beheld, and, lo, in the midst of the throne and of the four beasts, and in the midst of the elders, stood a Lamb as it had been slain, having seven horns and seven eyes, which are the seven Spirits of God sent forth into all the earth.
why not Christ in glory? Why the lamb as slain? Sacrificed?
Revelation is a series of word pictures where John describes in terms he and us can understand, what is indescribable.
