Why would you make fun of the sacrificial system that God instituted? Even if you disagree with someone's understanding of the millennium, that's a far cry from besmirching the system set up by God as a PRE-FIGURING of the sacrifice of Christ.

Incidentally, if God can PRE-figure by the sacrifice of a lamb or bull or goat, why can't he Post-figure?

***Why would you make fun of the sacrificial system that God instituted?***

Well, I'm not. I have no disagreements with the proper place of type and shadow sacrifices that were the shadow of better things to come and have already arrived. In this same sense, I don't "besmirch" the celebration and memorial of the Lord's Supper. I just realize that I am to do this until the Marriage Supper and then I will ceace doing this.

***Incidentally, if God can PRE-figure by the sacrifice of a lamb or bull or goat, why can't he Post-figure?***

You are plainly ignoring the fact that animal sacrifice was a type and shadow of things to come. Those things have already come. It is just plain insulting to the Lord to return to the type and shadow and "besmirch" the better things. Why do you advocate doing this?
