Sacrifice: Obedience vs. Sacrifice

“To do what is right and just is more acceptable to the Lord than sacrifice.” -Proverbs 21:3

Jesus was a sacrifice for us because our debt of sin had to be paid.  So now that our mistakes have been paid for, should we go ahead and keep making them on purpose? No, of course not!   Jesus was the sacrifice, but what God really wants is for us to surrender our sinful desires and seek after doing what is right and just.  Seek righteousness and justice, today, and you will be pleasing God!
