NO!
If one believed that a blood sacrifice was necessary before God would forgive you, then even one example where God forgave without a blood sacrifice would prove that this idea is UnBiblical. There are many such examples, but the most interesting is found in the Book of Leviticus. The reason this is so interesting is that it comes right in the middle of the discussion of sin sacrifices, which is found in the first chapters. In Leviticus 5:11-13, it states, If, however, he cannot afford two doves or two young pigeons, he is to bring as an offering for his sin a tenth of an ephah of fine flour for a sin offering." One can also see that one does not need a blood sacrifice for the forgiveness of sins in the Book of Jonah 3:10. There, the Bible simply states that God saw the works of the people of Ninevah. Specifically it says that the works God saw were that they stopped doing evil, and so God forgave them. There are plenty of other examples, and the idea that one needs a blood sacrifice for the forgiveness of sins is UNBIBLICAL.

Jews deserted animal sacrifice on the year 70 A.D. with the destruction of the Holy temple in Jerusalem, by employing the Romans. in view that then Jews replaced maximum of their non secular customs. on the different hand, in view that then many Christians got here upon that they savour the sacrifice of Jews, to compensate for the sins of Christians.

No because the Temple was destroyed by the Romans. But just wait. Any day now the Temple will be rebuilt and ritual sacrifice will resume.

since the destruction of the temple by the romans in 70 AD, no animal sacrifice has been performed. this cessation of animal sacrifice adds weight to the argument that Christ was the fulfillment of Jewish law, that He was the final and perfect sacrifice.
Although some Christians (see above) believe that the temple will be rebuilt and animal sacrifce will be reinstituted, the requirement by God for any animal sacrifice has been eliminated forever in Christ.
God bless!!

No, but they are currently seeking a Kosher Bull and are training a new group of priests to resume the sacrifices when the new temple is built.

no, our sacrifices have moved on to a higher spiritual level, and therefore we have done away with the bullocks and only sacrifice live christian babies.

not any more! the temple has been destroyed and the only place where sacrifice took place was the temple.
so no temple--no sacrifice.
