Sacrifice by itself is not enough, Nor lip worship.

It is by FAITH and GOOD WORKS.

The Lord God Declares:
To what purpose is the multitude of your sacrifices unto me? saith the LORD: I am full of the burnt offerings of rams, and the fat of fed beasts; and I delight not in the blood of bullocks, or of lambs, or of he goats. When ye come to appear before me, who hath required this at your hand, to tread my courts? Bring no more vain oblations; incense is an abomination unto me; the new moons and sabbaths, the calling of assemblies, I cannot away with; it is iniquity, even the solemn meeting. Your new moons and your appointed feasts my soul hateth: they are a trouble unto me; I am weary to bear them. And when ye spread forth your hands, I will hide mine eyes from you: yea, when ye make many prayers, I will not hear: your hands are full of blood.

--Isaiah 1:11-15

Dear brothers and sisters, sometimes it is hard for us to do good. Look in your heart, and examine the instances of your transgressions. God knows you, and I. Our faults, and our wayward inner parts. We all fall into that category. No one is exempt. (ROMANS 3: 23)

Let alone our faults and failures. So be open to him, brothers and sisters. Don't just lip worship.

Isaiah 29:13 Wherefore the Lord said, Forasmuch as this people draw near me with their mouth, and with their lips do honour me, but have removed their heart far from me, and their fear toward me is taught by the precept of men

Matthew 15:8 This people draweth nigh unto me with their mouth, and honoureth me with their lips; but their heart is far from me.
