- "What does it take to put an end to sacrifices? There is one sacrifice, and only one, that puts an end to all other sacrifices. It is the sacrifice that God has willed. It is the sacrifice that is willingly given in absolute obedience to God's will. But it is not just a matter of obedience and will. It is also sacrifice. The "body" that God has prepared for the offering must be sacrificed. This atonement is the permanent one."
