   there are liars in the true Bible you know.   This is what has the world   
   screwed up in the head.  God never permitted it.  The liar Jews said it   
   was ok.  Even Abraham was sacrifice to animals at the altar.   
   So this is a part of the problems of truly understanding correct   
   interpretation.  And the New covenant.  Why would God want a new   
   covenant if everything was ok with the old one?   
      
   That by itself would not make sense.   Some things of the old testament   
   are not ok.  Because of lies yes.  Some did the sacrifice, and did not   
   know the lie, which they remain in their own innocence yes.  But, it was   
   still wrong.
