YAHUSHUA's death would have been entirely unnecessary if they could do so. ELOHIM provided instructions to the Israelites in the book of Leviticus on how they were to offer sacrifices for their sins. Blood needed to be spilled in order for the sacrifices to be accomplished. In the Tanakh (Old Testament) it was done with animals; in the Brit Hadasha (New Testament) it was YAHUSHUA Ha Mashiach that was the ultimate sacrifice. ELOHIM wants us to realize that sin costs something; it cost the life of His Son. In the book of Leviticus chapter 16, it talks about the Day of Atonement and it tells us how a sacrifice is needed for sins. If we look at Leviticus 17:11; it reads, “For the life of the flesh is in the blood: and I have given it to you upon the altar to make an atonement for your souls: for it is the blood that maketh an atonement for the soul.” Thousands of animals were being sacrificed, and it seem to have little or no effect in their behavior. ELOHIM was allowing the animal’s life to be a substitute; it is symbolically dying in our place and the biblical word for this is atonement.The ritual was to make things right between Israel and YAHUAH, and more than that, the Israelites experienced YAHUAH’s love and grace through these sacrifices; that was the ideal, but it was not always happening. Isaiah, for example talks a lot about this; he says that the continual sacrifices of the Israelites had become meaningless, because they were also allowing great evil in their midst ignoring the poor, and the oppressed. In Isaiah 1:13 YAHUAH tells us, “Bring no more vain oblations; incense is an abomination unto me; the new moons and sabbaths, the calling of assemblies, I cannot away with; it is iniquity, even the solemn meeting.” Isaiah told of a day when a king from the line of David would come and deal with evil. This king would become a servant; not only serving but also suffering and dying for the evil committed by the Israelites. His life would be offered as a sacrifice. YAHUSHUA used Isaiah’s words when He said in Matthew 20:28, “Even as the Son of man came not to be ministered unto, but to minister, and to give his life a ransom for many.” The word “ransom” refers to His sacrifice of atonement. YAHUSHUA is the perfect sacrifice; it stopped the practice of animal sacrifices and they were given new rituals one of which was called, baptism. Baptism is the sacred ritual that joins our story to YAHUSHUA’s death. In this book we will examine what baptism unto remembrance was all about; we will look into Job and explain sin and repentance in great detail.
