“And thou shalt offer every day a bullock for a sin offering for atonement: and thou shalt cleanse the altar, when thou hast made an atonement for it, and thou shalt anoint it, to sanctify it.”
Exodus 29:36 KJV
Under the old covenant, the law required to offer a bull as an offering everyday for seven days to purify them from sin. They were to cleanse the altar and consecrate it by anointing it with oil. In this shadow system of the law, sacrifices were repeatedly slain because no permanent cleansing was possible. The principle of repeated repentance, as practiced under the law, does not make sense in the context of the new dispensation, because it would absurdly imply that Christ was being re-crucified and subjected to public shame over and over again. This new order is not to be confused with the old! Grace is not a cheap excuse for sin! Let’s awaken to faith-consciousness once and for all. We are free from the old rules and bondage of the duty-driven law of willpower. It is impossible for the old system to match the new! Thank You Jesus for freeing us from the old and making us new in Christ!
