Sacrificing Animals Is An Act of Covetousness
When God created mankind he gave him dominion over the entire world, including all the animals. And since mankind was made from the dust of the ground man was given dominion over himself.
But consider what this dominion now means as God 'technically' made man his 'neighbor' (hint: God walked with man in the Garden of Eden – God was visiting his neighbor) and according to God's own commandments God must forbid himself from coveting anything of man's, including all the animals.
Now that Passover approaches it is wise to consider that since all the animals are under man's dominion any sacrifice of a lamb to erase our sins is meaningless as God cannot covet anything of man's especially any animal used as a sin offering or sacrifice. So whenever mankind tries to sacrifice to God anything that is under man's domain (hint: a lamb) he is trying to force God to covet something that isn't God's, which is a sin!
For anything to be sacrificed to God, and be used as a sin offering, it has to be something that God cannot covet since covetousness is a sin. Since God gave man dominion over everything in this world there is nothing that we have that can be used as a sacrifice that God could accept as a sin offering, as God would then be accused by Satan as coveting the very item used for the sacrifice.
Now consider what would happen if God sent his very own son to become man and then use him to be our sin offering. Since God's son would become a man his son would have dominion over himself, as every man has, while also being under the dominion of God the Father since God had given his son his name Jesus Christ to establish God's dominion over his only son.
So here you have Jesus Christ ,who is God become man, eliminating any possibility of God being accused by Satan of coveting anything that wasn't his since Jesus Christ is actually God himself. The only possible sacrifice that God could accept that would not violate any of his 10 Commandments, especially the 10th against coveting, is if God became man himself in the person of Jesus Christ!
Jesus Christ has to be God to eliminate any possibility of God coveting any sacrifice of man's since man was given dominion over everything around him that he would then use as a sacrifice. God cannot covet anything that is under the dominion of man, or of Satan. Jesus Christ was born without sin so he is not under the dominion of man, or of Satan, and therefore when God accepts the death of Jesus Christ as our sin offering God is NOT committing a sin by coveting anything of man's.
Believe in the death and resurrection of Jesus Christ, who is God's only son become man, as Jesus Christ's sacrifice of his own life on the cross was accepted by God the Father as being under the dominion of God exclusively, and not under the dominion of man, or of Satan, and therefore not a sinful act of covetousness.
When every believer becomes one with Jesus Christ through the indwelling Holy Spirit (hint: get baptized), then God cannot be accused of coveting anyone that he has forgiven. Which is why we MUST individually ask God to forgive us so that God cannot be accused of coveting anything that isn't his.
God Bless
