“After the Savior completed His Atoning sacrifice, blood
sacrifices were no longer a gospel ordinance. We are now required to offer the
Lord “a broken heart and a contrite spirit (3 Nephi 9:20). We are also asked to
comply with the principles of sacrifice by obeying the commandments, offering
precious gifts of love, time, and service of our Savior. Our sacrifices deepen
our worship, acknowledge our debt to God, and express gratitude for our
blessings (see Bible Dictionary, “Sacrifices”).”
David Rolph Seely and Jo Ann H. Seely, “Behold the Lamb of
God,” Ensign, Apr. 2013, 48-49.
