THE SERMON ON THE MOUNT WAS FOR ISRAEL

[PeterAndroz]

How do you get that from what Luther7 wrote? He mentioned the sacrifice of the Saviour for His people, but not animal sacrifices.

He responded to my comment :-
"""Always good to read someone who understands that not all of the Bible applies to us today."""
Keep up with the flow David

I know that he was replying to those words from you. What I don't understand is how you can get from his words any idea that he believes that animal sacrifices are required to have our sins forgiven. Perhaps he will reply himself. I will leave it to him to say whether or not he believes in animal sacrifices.

He responded with :-
""""Well thankfully there aren't too many of you"""
So based on my NOT ALL THE BIBLE applies ...
I then reacted with :-
"""So you believe that NT ANIMAL SACRIFICES are a requirement today to have sins forgiven ?""
My error was the use of NT instead of OT
..
Animal sacrifices are part of the Bible yet not all of the Bible is applicable today.
All good now ?

Yes of course animal sacrifices are part ofg the Bible. However, the Bible clearly states that animal sacrifices can never actually take away sin:

NKJV Heb 10:4 For it is not possible that the blood of bulls and goats could take away sins.

Later in the same chapter we are told how Jesus Christ is the one perfect and complete sacrifice:

Heb 10:10 By that will we have been sanctified through the offering of the body of Jesus Christ once for all.
Heb 10:11 And every priest stands ministering daily and offering repeatedly the same sacrifices, which can never take away sins.
Heb 10:12 But this Man, after He had offered one sacrifice for sins forever, sat down at the right hand of God,

The Old Testament animal sacrifice were but types or shadows, pointing to the sacrifice of Jesus Christ on the cross.
