God Himself became the Sacrifice in Christ

 “And almost all things are by the law purged with blood; and without shedding of blood is no remission.”

‭‭Hebrews‬ ‭9‬:‭22‬ ‭KJV‬‬

Thus, according to the law, all purging was by means of blood; forgiveness was specifically associated with the shedding of blood.  It is clear to see that we were ransomed from the futile, fallen mindset that we inherited from our fathers, not by the currency of our own labour represented by the fluctuating values of gold and silver, and the economy of our religious efforts; but we were redeemed with the priceless Blood of Christ - He is the ultimate Sacrifice, spotless and without blemish.  God does not demand a sacrifice that would change the way He thinks about mankind.  He provides the Sacrifice of Himself in Christ, in order to forever eradicate sin-consciousness from our minds and radically change the way we think about our Maker, one another and ourselves!  Worthy is the Lamb of God!
