This is so true. I even have to watch myself sometimes lest I fall in my lower nature to engage in a reaction or ego-reflex to offend or project in a way that is NOT coming from love, which forces you to pause...and reflect...to see what's going on within,...and to transmute or diffuse that with love, and letting the Spirit lead and guide. We are judged by every word that proceeds from our heart and soul. All stands naked before the heavenly courts, since nothing escapes the omnipresence of Elohim.
Well,....we've shared some Jewish videos and views of atonement, and will continue, plus I've linked the UB view of blood atonement as well here. Here is another from a Karaite Jewish brother, he gives many passages anyone can look up on the Tanakh's teaching on atonement. It still stands, and heralded by the prophets.....REPENTANCE is the way. This does not discount that some sins were atoned for via blood sacrifice (NOT ALL) in the OT, neither does it discount any meaningful symbolism or value in such symbolism, but these are to be understood figuratively, and they avail nothing unless we undergo genuine change or transformation within, affecting a true return to 'God'.

True in walk and personal relationship with the Father and His Son, (the Word), and those who follow the Father and His Son, (the Word). But not so true in internet forum politics where people think they have the right to assassinate the character of someone else they do not know and have never met simply to "win" an argument. Character assassination is tantamount to murder in the doctrine of the Master because it is hate, (which is why he says that murders proceed from the heart and come forth from the mouth, Matthew 15:18-20, as quoted above), and likewise therefore whosoever hates his brother is a murderer, and we know that no murderer has eternal life dwelling in him, (1John 3:15). If therefore one is going to assume the right to judge others, in violation of the commandments of Messiah, the same should not be surprised to find that judgment meted right back out to them because our judgment really means nothing in the overall scheme of things anyway, (except in the better way, when we judge our own selves). However, in this case, it was clearly on-topic because what has transpired shows that the atonement theory of LA is neither efficacious nor advantageous.
