SACRIFICE

Definition

In the Old Testament was the killing, burning, and sometimes eating of an animal at the altar. Part of it was offered to God, part eaten by the priest and part by the worshipper. A sacrafice was presented to God as a gift, as an act of thanksgiving, devotion, repentance or payment of vows made to God. The perfect sacrifice was made through the perfect Saviour, Jesus Christ, offered once only and for all.
