Cost in Religion and the True Sacrifice
The sermon argues that true religion costs something and cannot be offered cheaply. It cites David buying Arahna’s threshing floor and warns that a high conception of God shapes holy conduct, while cheap offerings reveal flawed worship and character. It notes that only costly, sincere restitution and sacrifice please the divine.
