No...blood sacrifice is no longer commanded by God...He gave His son as the ultimate blood sacrifice. Please do not kill any animals in sacrifice.

Jesus Christ's sacrifice was the final and complete sacrifice for mankind. No other sacrifice is needed for the atonement of sins or justification before God the Father. To be saved, we need to have faith that Jesus Christ is our Lord and Saviour.

No, you can't do anything to make God love you more. His ultimate love is that He sacrificed His Son Jesus' life and Jesus gave it willingly, for you so that you can be with Him for eternity.
You can however, accept the free offering of love and forgiveness that He gave for you.

No, the law of animal sacrifice was fulfilled in Christ. Now, the only sacrifice God requires from you is your time and energy in building His kingdom here on earth.

yeah- but the ram wouldn't.
Actually- that ancient practice ceased with the destruction of the jewish temple in 70AD. Given the changing moral zeitgeist- I think we're a little past that now. Even amongst the most wacko religious folk.

uhhhh
It isn't the DEATH that makes God happy. The point of sacrafice was substitution. WE ARE GUILTY. (period).
It is like taxes... Someone has to pay. Justice is required.
Also, Christ blood has already atoned for your sins if you just claim it.

No sir. I suppose it is your view of God that would best decide if this were a viable option.
