That is why, when Christ came into the world, he said to God, “You did not want animal sacrifices or sin offerings. But you have given me a body to offer. You were not pleased with burnt offerings or other offerings for sin. Then I said, ‘Look, I have come to do your will, O God— as is written about me in the Scriptures.’”
Hebrews 10:5‭-‬7 NLT

Jesus was and is the sacrifice for our sin. No other offering for sin is pleasing or acceptable to God. No other offering for sin is bigger or equal to the sacrifice that Jesus made for our sin.

This includes, financial giving. Don’t ever be conned into thinking a financial seed will get us back in right standing with God after we’ve missed the mark. We never were on bad terms with God because our punishment for every sin was satisfied through Jesus.

Another offering for sin that’s not acceptable is self-abuse. When we beat ourselves up about missing the mark and allow guilt and shame to enter our minds after missing it, God is NOT pleased. He doesn’t get any glory when we abuse ourselves for something that has already been paid for. Self-abuse after sin is a spit in the face to the sacrifice of Jesus.

Know and believe Jesus’ offering for sin was enough. No other contribution from us is acceptable or pleasing to God. Receive total forgiveness through Jesus Christ.
