The Torah says, "Without the shedding of blood, there is no forgiveness."
Leviticus 17:11
For thousands of years, atonement came through the Temple. Through sacrifice. Through blood on the altar.
Then in 70 CE, Rome destroyed the Temple.
The sacrifices stopped.
So What Now?
The Torah doesn't say, "Blood is optional." It says it's required.
So if there's no Temple, no altar, no High Priest entering the Holy of Holies with blood...
How do you get forgiven?
Prayer? Good deeds? Hoping for the best?
The Torah didn't say any of that would work.
Unless...
What if the sacrifices didn't stop?
What if they were fulfilled?
Isaiah 53 describes someone who would be "pierced for our transgressions" and whose suffering would bring us peace.
Not a goat. Not a lamb. A person.
Yeshua died on Passover, the feast of the sacrificial lamb, around 30 CE.
40 years before the Temple was destroyed.
The Timing Is Stunning
Right before the Temple system ended forever, Yeshua offered Himself as the final sacrifice.
One atonement. For all time. For all people.
No more yearly rituals. No more temporary coverings.
Just complete forgiveness, if you receive it.
The Question
If Yeshua is the Messiah, then atonement is still available.
Not at a destroyed Temple. But through a risen Savior.
The embrace is still open.
