is more acceptable to the LORD than sacrifice. (Proverbs 21:3)
Old Testament ritual revolved around the sacrifice. Many thought that as long as they participated in the ritualistic sacrifices that they were OK... no matter how they lived. Today, we would compare it to going to church: as long as we go to church on Sunday, it doesn't matter how we live the rest of the week.
However, God wants what we practice on Sunday to carry over into the rest of our lives. Real worship will result in a life of integrity.
