Abundant Life Sermons

Under the Old Covenant, worshippers had only shadows that pointed to Christ—the substance of our salvation. The “shadow” of Christ and His blood—the blood of bulls and goats—could not take away sin! Christ’s victory over death and sin was made final on the cross. His sacrifice was better than any other sacrifice offered under the Levitical Law. Why is Christ the Better Sacrifice? 1.) The sacrifice is connected to the incarnation of God’s Son. 2.) The sacrifice is connected to the crucifixion of God’s Son. 3.) The sacrifice is connected to the devastation of God’s enemies. 4.) The sacrifice is connected to the destruction of our sins.
