The
Meal\Grain Offering
This sacrifice emphasizes the perfect person of Jesus Christ,
a perfect personality (Just as Adam was created), who was conceived and
born impeccably, and remained impeccable all the way through His life being
indwelt, filled and empowered by the Holy Spirit, Demonstrated by the pouring,
spreading and mixing of oil on various grain offerings.
God is completely satisfied with work of the sacrifice
of the person of His only Son, Jesus Christ.
