What does the Bible say about the sacrifice of Jesus?
Answered in 3 sources
The Bible teaches that Jesus' sacrifice was the only perfect offering for sin, satisfying divine justice once for all.
The New Testament, particularly in the book of Hebrews, emphasizes that Jesus, described as 'this man', offered one sacrifice for sins forever, which perfected those who are sanctified (Hebrews 10:12-14). Unlike the repeated sacrifices of the Old Testament, which could never fully atone for sins, Jesus' sacrifice was unique and fully satisfactory, as He was without sin. This act of redemption allows us to confidently approach God, knowing that our sins are forgiven through His blood.
