The Torah teaches that sacrifices were done for sins of ignorance. Those who sinned presumtuously were not to offer a sacrifice. They were to be cut off (put to death). So, for example, if someone collected sticks on the sabbath to build a fire, and he didn't know that he was not suppose to collect sticks, he could offer a sacrifice and be forgiven. On the other hand, if someone collected sticks intentionally, knowing that it was forbidden, but he disregarded God's law and did it anyway, that person was to be cut off from the congregation. ---------- "Let your speech be always with grace, seasoned with salt, that you may know how you ought to answer every man."
