Hello, my friend!!! Let's discuss a few points, ok? (By the way, I don't intend to get side tracked with others' posts. As far as I'm concerned, I'll be answering only you.)
First of all, you rightly mentioned the veil was torn. Which veil was torn and how do we know this? I know this sounds like a trick question, but it isn't. The reason I ask is because some people do not know there are actually two veils. Second, why did G-d Himself remove this aspect? Is it because it's no longer necessary, or could it be simply a punishment for lashon hara? The Talmud even speaks on the destruction of the Temple as punishment from G-d because we forgot how to show respect for those with differing opinions. <<This should perk your ears in regards to the happenings on TruthTalk.>> Third, you mentioned the Lord's Supper is a vicarious sacrifice. How so? Fourth, I *LOVE* the "out of the mouth of the Master" comment. Well said! -- slade -----Original Message----- From: Gregory A. Hession J.D.

Did not G-d himself remove this aspect of the sacrificial law, so that we would no longer perform those sacrifices under the new covenant? The new covenant has a new and vicarious sacrifice in the Lord's supper, by command of the Messiah Himself. A new command, a new covenant, out of the mouth of the master. ---------- "Let your speech be always with grace, seasoned with salt, that you may know how you ought to answer every man."
