 We've been provided with a better sacrifice in Christ's shed blood. We celebrated the Lord's Supper last Sunday where we received Jesus' body and blood with the promise of redemption through his blood. Jesus shed his blood for our forgiveness on the cross, and the Lord's Supper is one way we gain access to that forgiveness as a means of grace. In verse 8 we read, "...which he lavished upon us in all wisdom and insight."
