“then what sacrifice do you have”

Sacrifices are only required when there is a temple. We have today the same exact means of atonement as Ezekiel, Daniel, Isaiah, Esther, Mordecai...Prayer, Repentance, Charity, Fasting...and a few others. When the 3rd temple is built, then sacrifices will resume. It’s just that christians have been taught since birth about the blood sacrifice being the ONLY means of atonement. It’s not. In fact many sacrfices had nothing to do with sin at all.

And even then blood was not required...Lev 5:11...Flour atones. Flour.

The temple is where He chooses and today that temple is in the human spirit of every believer.

This isn’t a religious debate. It is a report.

This is why a Gentile is able to have fellowship with God Himself.

35 Then Jesus declared, “I am the bread of life. Whoever comes to me will never go hungry, and whoever believes in me will never be thirsty.

There is a passage in the New testament when Jesus said
*It is Finished*

After the Lord Jesus had spoken to them, he was taken up into heaven and he sat at the right hand of God.

Mark 16:19

The end of SIN through the sacrafice....Isn’t the point that the Levitical Priests never sit down because sin is never abolished?

The constant repetition of the daily and annual sacrifices proved that the Levitical sacrifices could not satisfy the righteousness of God or wouldn’t it be complete at some point?
