Seriously jimmie, that does not say God required a blood sacrifice in order to be able to forgive. I'm not surprised that you read it into that, though.

"My blood is poured out for the forgiveness of sins." -Jesus
How you & others here can deny what Jesus meant, especially when other scripture points to Jesus as the sacrificial Lamb, is just ridiculous. I'm not surprised, though.

Revelation 1:5 - and from Jesus Christ, the faithful witness, the firstborn of the dead, and the ruler of the kings of the earth. To Him who loves us and released us from our sins by His blood--
Hebrews 9:22 - And according to the Law, one may almost say, all things are cleansed with blood, and without shedding of blood there is no forgiveness.

Jimmie was talking about what JESUS is reported to have said. (See post 120)
Foolishness is foolishness, Biblical or otherwise. There is a lot in the Bible which is just plain crazy and should be treated as such, imo. Making excuses for it is STUPID
It is foolishness to the unbeliever because they are spiritually dead and blind. The Bible is a book meant to be read and studied by people who are born again.

PLEASE, you just have to give chapter and verse where GOD or JESUS said this fallacy...
