Blood Sacrifice In The Judeo-Christian Religion
[ send me this essay ]
5 pages in length. Can a sin be forgiven? Should it be? Is it the guilt a sinner attempts to rid from himself, or is it a true sense of regret that drives him to seek out forgiveness? Inasmuch as sin is definitive and a proverbial slap in the face of God, how can it be forgiven? In response to mankind's sinning ways, atonement was required in order to escape the wrath of God and regain His favor. Repenting one's sins and abating His anger, which is tempered by love for His people, took its form in blood sacrifices; however, these offerings were not so strict as to require human blood, but rather He was appeased with the presentation of sacrificial animals who gave their life for Man's sinful ways. Bibliography lists 5 sources.
