Why don't we still sacrifice according to the ceremonial law? The animal sacrifices were only an annual reminder of sin, they do not take away sin. Jesus came to do God's will - to offer a perfect sacrifice. As the scripture says, "He sets aside the first to establish the second." (vs. 9) Jesus completed in one sacrifice what could not be accomplished in the daily sacrifice. Through Christ's sacrifice, the law is now written in our hearts and our minds, our sins are remembered no more. Praise the Lord!
Since there has been forgiveness, there is no longer any sacrifice for sin. Jesus has already accomplished it!
