Killing Bulls & Goats Was Easier Than Grace

The blood of bulls and goats etc did the job, but Christ's blood works even better. (Not sure in what sense it works better, but I suppose we could read between the lines and consider that it was a one-time sacrifice, vs repeated sacrifices. That's better, for sure!) And still, Lev says what it says. Don't tell me I've found a contradiction!

Timmy, I don't think you have found a contradiction

Heb 10
1For the law having a shadow of good things to come, and not the very image of the things, can never with those sacrifices which they offered year by year continually make the comers thereunto perfect.
2For then would they not have ceased to be offered? because that the worshippers once purged should have had no more conscience of sins.
3But in those sacrifices there is a remembrance again made of sins every year.
4For it is not possible that the blood of bulls and of goats should take away sins.
