Fool – a person who acts unwisely to trick or deceive someone or themselves.
I witnessed a private conversation between a wealthy woman and a man who just happened to be the president of a once-prosperous nation. The discussion was about implementing a change to God’s law as it pertained to the Old Testament sacrifices and creating a new way of approaching Him today.
She suggested the president make it acceptable to have the people draw the animals they wanted to sacrifice on paper. After all, the president could convince the powers and decision-makers to enact this bill. “They can cut out the drawings and burn them as a sacrifice,” the woman continued. “People are too poor to purchase sheep, cows, turtledoves, and chickens. These animals are way too expensive, and they cannot afford them.”
I screamed at them, saying, “Jesus was the final sacrifice, and there no longer remains any other sacrifice for our sins1. You FOOLS! Who do you think you are to change God’s law?” They completely ignored me because they could not see me. As it was, she and the president decided that their resolution of animal sacrifice was better than the order God established. So, they opted to move forward in their efforts.
I could not believe that this move was secretly taking place. I said again, “Who do you think you are to change God’s mandate? You may be able to manipulate people with your money, but God’s law is the final authority. You are a fool to think that your money can purchase anything you want. Except you repent and convert, your money will perish with you.
Jesus said, 2“Do not think that I came to abolish the Law or the Prophets; I did not come to abolish but to fulfill.”
1Hebrews 10:26-31
2Matthew 5:17
Yes, Christ’s was the last sacrifice. No one or nothing can change that. Only a fool think they can. One thing we can do is to love one another and that is well please to God.
Who do you think you are to change God’s mandate? Answer: A FOOL!!!! God has the Final AUTHORITY!!!
