...the law of sacrifice will have to be restored, or all things which were decreed by the Lord would not be restored.

Sacrifice by the shedding of blood was instituted in the days of Adam and of necessity will have to be restored. | ...the law of sacrifice will have to be restored.... Sacrifice by the shedding of blood was instituted in the days of Adam and of necessity will have to be restored. |
