Old Testament Sacrifice....

The Hebrews would kill animals as a sacrifice to God,as an atonement for sins...some how believing that giving up a material object was better than the mental changing that was really needed...this idea is still carried on by small sacrifices during Lent..we have not changed much....when the idea of sacrifice was presented to Jesus, He said;" When you would offer sacrifice unto our God, just take your gift of grain, or meat and lay it on the table of the poor"......
