Do Christians Celebrate Eid al-Adha?
from Afghan Radio - Sound of Life · host Hope for Afghans
When we look at the Old Testament, the ram was a substitutionary sacrifice. It was a sacrifice in place of Isaac. This is the first example of a substitutionary sacrifice in the Bible, one life given for another. This form of sacrifice is actually the basis and foundation of the sin offering, which is later explained in detail in Leviticus 6. Here we see a sinful man who deserved the death penalty, but God, in His mercy, provided a substitute for this penalty. In the Old Testament this substitute was an animal; in the New Testament this substitute is Jesus Christ, the final and perfect sacrifice, after which there is no need for any other sacrifices for our sins.
