Even in the imperfection of everything; the perfection of God can be seen.❤️ God is always in control, even though He is not ruler of this world. (John 14:29-31; Romans 1:18-21).
Starting at 1min when you see cows Fr Merton goes into why Jesus Christ was the perfect sacrifice replacing animal sacrifices. The high Priest Annas at the time of Jesus's arrest even spoke by Dvine inspiration to the Jewish crowd that it would be to the benefit of the entire nation that one man be sacrificed for them! Adam was originally perfect but lost it for everyone. Therefore only another perfect man could replace for everyone what Adam lost. Jesus was the perfect equivalent. (John 3:16).
