Lord, Thou art all the offerings
  Prepared by God for us;
They are so rich in meaning,
  So sweet and glorious.
They have fulfilled God's purpose
  And met His heart's desire;
They too have satisfied us,
  And faced what we require.
2
Thou art the burnt-oblation,
  Consumed by holy fire;
To God as a sweet savor,
  Fulfilling His desire.
Thou walkedst in God's presence,
  And all His will pursued;
Thyself the spotless offering,
  For us to God as food.
3
Thou art the meal-oblation,
  With "oil" and "frankincense";
’Tis holy, fine, and perfect,
  And sweet to every sense.
Thou art the peace-oblation,
  The peace for us to make,
That we with God may share Thee,
  As food of Thee partake.
4
Thou art the sin-oblation,
  For us Thou sin wast made;
By death for our redemption
  The ransom Thou hast paid.
Thou art the trespass-offering,
  Thou all our sins didst bear
To satisfy God's justice,
  That we His pardon share.
5
Thou art the wave-oblation,
  The resurrected One;
O'er hades, death and darkness,
  The vict'ry Thou hast won.
Thou art the heave-oblation,
  Thou didst ascend to God;
As such in heav'nly places
  Thou art our holy food.

b. Taking Away All the Sacrifices and Offerings

of the Old Testament and Establishing

the New Testament Sacrifice and Offering

In Hebrews 10:5-9, after quoting this prophecy concerning Christ in Psalm 40:6-8, Paul commented that Christ’s coming to do God’s will is to take away “the first that He may establish the second” (Heb. 10:9). The first in Paul’s comment refers to the sacrifices and offerings of the first covenant, the old covenant; the second refers to the sacrifice of the second covenant, the new covenant, which sacrifice is Christ.

As the unique sacrifice and offering, Christ took away all the sacrifices and offerings of the Old Testament and established Himself as the New Testament sacrifice and offering. Christ is our sacrifice to deal with sin and sins, and He is our offering, our gift, presented to God for God’s satisfaction.

In the old dispensation God commanded His people to offer to Him sacrifices and offerings. But when Jesus came and lived on this earth, God no longer delighted in those Old Testament offerings. Instead, it was God’s will to replace them with Christ Himself. Christ came to be the real sacrifice and living offering, who offered Himself on the cross as the reality of all the offerings. He is the reality of the sin offering, the trespass offering, the burnt offering, the meal offering, and the peace offering.

Actually, Christ came to replace all the Old Testament types. In other words, by Christ’s first coming, the entire Old Testament was terminated and replaced. Now our offering and sacrifice are Christ. Day and night we offer Christ to God as all kinds of offerings. Whenever we sin, we ask God to forgive us, taking Christ, God’s Son, as our sin offering and trespass offering. He is the real offering for our sin and transgressions. When we need peace toward God, we can take Christ as our peace offering. We can also take Him as our burnt offering and meal offering. Christ is everything to us because He fulfilled all the Old Testament types and has taken them away. Today He is the reality of all the types in the Old Testament.

The reality of all the offerings is Christ realized as the Spirit (John 1:17; 14:6, 17). This means that in our experience the Spirit is the reality of the offerings. If we do not have the Spirit in a subjective way, we will not have the reality of the offerings but only the doctrine regarding Christ as the offerings. In Himself Christ is the reality of the offerings, but He cannot be this reality to us apart from His being the life-giving Spirit. The more we pray concerning Christ as the offerings with the realization that He is the life-giving Spirit, the more we will enjoy Him as the offerings. The way to enjoy Christ is to contact Him and take Him in as the Spirit of reality.

We need to live a life according to God’s heart and will by daily enjoying Christ as the reality of all the offerings. This is for the fulfillment of the great will of God, which is to have Christ as the replacement for all the offerings in the Old Testament in order that we may enjoy Him as everything in living and practicing the Body life for the building up of the Body of Christ as the organism of the Triune God (Eph. 1:5 , 9 , 11 ; Heb. 10:7-10 ; Rom. 12:2 ).
