Hebrews 13:16 (a) By this word is described any praise or worship rendered to GOD from a grateful heart. (See also1Pe 2:5). Some of the sacrifices of the Old Testament represented various aspects of the work of CHRIST on the Cross. (See under "OFFERINGS"). Other sacrifices represented various attitudes of the Christian in his relationship to GOD. In some cases the sacrifices represented the attempt of sinners to appease their gods.
