The Acceptable Sacrifice I

God does not require a sin offering from man because man is not capable of offering a sacrifice that is acceptable in His sight.   Even if there were a man who never sinned, such a man could only offer a sacrifice for himself, he could never offer himself for everyone.  Only the infinite God who assumed to himself human nature could offer a sacrifice for all those for whom He died. 

The Christian understands that he could never offer a sacrifice acceptable to God, and is eternally thankful for God’s Son who did!
