Noah (our hero) performs a sacrifice after the flood
Copilot
After the flood, Noah performed a sacrifice as a gesture of thanksgiving and dedication to God. In Genesis 8:20, it is described that Noah built an altar and offered burnt offerings of clean animals and birds. This act was not a payment for sin but rather a symbolic expression of contrition, gratitude, and obedience12. God was pleased with the sacrifice and made a covenant with Noah, promising never to destroy the earth by flood again34. This event is often referred to as the Noahic Covenant3.
So it's like.. what the fuck is this.. Yahweh is doing like I don't know.. those gods of the devil worshippers where you gotta sacrifice something for it, right.. like Moloch. lol. But he's doing burnt offerings of clean animals and birds. Hey, that's nice, taking some of those creatures, obviously from the fucking ark and killing them for Yahweh. Never heard of Yahweh being into these sacrifices things like the devil worshippers.
You should try reading instead of “talking” to chat bots sometime then:
Genesis 3:21
Genesis 4:3
Those are just in the first few dozen pages...
Genesis 3:21 refers to Adam and Eve being given their fallen corporal bodies (they were angel-like pre-fall). God doesn't sacrifice to Himself, that's ridiculous.
But I guess it doesn't matter in free Bible interpretation class. "It's just me and muh Bible, boy". I've always said the sola scriptura protestant approach is an atheist-making machine.
Since this god is certainly said to sacrifice his "only BEGOTTEN' (which means things).....who did he sacrifice him to?
If god doesn’t sacrifice to himself then to whom did he give Jesus?
Who was Jesus sacrificed to?
God sacrificed His Son, the second Adam, to atone for our sins resulting from the fall of man. Man brought the fall through his own free volition but it was God who became man, who died willingly and defeated death for all mankind.
One can't understand the NT without the OT. It's a reference to Genesis where Abraham is asked to sacrifice his son. Moreover, practice of sacrificing to clean oneself from sin is described in Leviticus. Jesus' death (the death of His human nature only) is the ultimate sacrifice and the end of that practice and just like Isaac wasn't killed, He died but got resurrected. Christ is the fulfillment of all prophesies and He's the final testament between God and man - the promise for man's salvation from death and eternal life in God.
No book has the level of continuity the Bible has, even if it weren't the word of God, it would still be an unmatched literary masterpiece. But as with all written word it needs the correct interpretation which is only possible within the true unchanged early Church tradition.
There is very little 'level of continuity' in the bible when read literally and refusing to SEE the continuity....how sacrifice in the time of Leviticus or anyone else was a lesser understanding of old by primitive people and must be discarded and understood for the symbolic analogy it is. Until sacrifice of self is understood and accomplished, ritual is needed to assimilate.
There is no 'true UNCHANGED Church tradition except for the common source of all religion.
What book shows continuity by showing this common source?
Throw down your snake by reading this book and try to critique it.
Are you up to the challenge?
This book doesn't negate a thing. It leaves that to others.

You’ve answered on whose behalf Jesus was sacrificed but the question is who was he sacrificed TO?
When the lord god of Israel asked Abraham to sacrifice Isaac, it was a sacrifice to him - the lord god of Israel. All sacrifices are offerings to some god or other, so to whom did god offer up his son as a sacrifice?
