Thysia is the word for animal sacrifice in the Old Testament and the New. Hebrews shows how Christ’s once-for-all sacrifice fulfilled and ended the system: “he offered for all time a single sacrifice for sins.”

Paul then redirects the language: in light of God’s mercy, present your bodies as “a living sacrifice (thysia), holy and acceptable to God” (Romans 12:1). Our lives become our worship, made possible by Christ’s sacrifice for us.
