The Shabbos Korbon mussof consists only of a korban Olah while the Moadim have A korban chattos also. Why is that? what is the difference between Shabbos and Yom Tov that the later has an additional korban chatos?
The basic difference between Shabbos and Yom Tov is said in the davening, on shabbos we say "mekadash Hashabbos" that HAshem is the one that sanctifies the Shabbos. While on Yom Tov we say "Mikadash Yisroel v'hazmanem" meaning Hashem sanctified the Jews and we have the power to sanctify the Yom Tov. On Shabbos the kedusha come from above without us doing anything, but Y'T HAshem says let's go see when Klal Yisroel made Rosh Chodesh we have the power to bring down Yom Tov to us.
On Yom Tov Klal Yisroel takes a step towards Hashem, as we take that step we realize how far we are and the only way to come closer to Hashem is with tshuva so we bring a Korban chattos asking for forgiveness that we can have the ability to dare to try and step towards HAshem. When Shabbos comes it comes to us as a gift from Hashem we don't have to make any effort to sanctify it so there is no need for that Korbon chattos as we have on Yom Tov.
Gut Shabbos.
