***Heb 9:13-17***

Now that is an interesting set of verses.

So, if the Lord abolished animal sacrifices for worship because of a new covenant, doesn't it stand to reason that if we will again restore animal sacrifices that we will return to the first covenant? This really does seem to be the way you dispensationalists slant things, especially with the obedience to the Law and the punishment of sin in this paradise kingdom.

And as a followup question: does this mean that the testament will no longer be in force?

Thats what I was wondering

Interestingly, the Pre-mil crowd sees a return to animal butchering...er....sacrifice during the "millennial kingdom". They attempt to justify this by noting that we, too, practice a memorial commemmorating Christ's work on the cross. This is the Lord's Supper.

However, this is a memorial done in his absense, which will cease at his return:

1 Corinthians 11
26 For as often as ye eat this bread, and drink this cup, ye do shew the Lord's death till he come.

When he comes again, we will need no memorial -Lord's Supper ~OR~ Animal Sacrifice- for we will forever be in his presense!

Come quickly Lord Jesus!
