Jews not longer make animal or vegetable sacrifices. Sacrifices were only made at the Temple in Jerusalem. Since the Temple was destroyed, we substitute prayer for sacrifices. Imagine all the cows we'd killing if we all had to do all those sacrifices!

What is the perfect sacrifice for God?

Jewish AnswerThe perfect sacrifice is one which is accompanied by repentance and subordination to God's will (Talmud, Berakhot 23a). (In response to the post below this one, it should be noted that my above answer does not refer to human sacrifice, which is prohibited by the Torah.)Discussion on the Christian Perfect SacrificeJudaism does not agree with Christianity that the "Jesus Sacrifice" was the perfect sacrifice. Judaism fundamentally disagrees with the Christian concept of Jesus' divinity and therefore would see the "sacrifice" as a human sacrifice which is explicitly forbidden by the law. Secondly, the concept of a perfect sacrifice that serves as eternal expiation is also disavowed by Judaism.

Using the four marks of the church are Judaism and Catholicism the same?

I don't know what the four marks of the church are but I think Judaism and Catholicism are not the same. Judaism is based on a covenantal relationship God developed with the children of Israel. It involved sacrifices, social laws and dietary laws. Christianity is based on a new covenant one where the sacrifice has been made by Jesus God's son.
