Quotation
Conclusion: My debt is paid, now what?
1. Free from sin, no longer a slave.
2. The great cost of the sacrifices:
Totally apart from the sacrifices that the people brought in their own personal worship, and the great number of lambs slain at Passover, each year the priests offered 113 bulls, 32 rams, and 1,086 lambs!
3. How thankful we shoud be that the sacrificial system has been fulfilled in Jesus Christ.
