THE MOST PRECIOUS BLOOD OF JESUS CHRIST OUR LORD & SAVIOUR
"But now in Christ Jesus you who once were far away have been brought near by the blood of Christ".
(Eph 2:12-14)
In our modern 21st Century America it seems very weird that anyone would think much about blood sacrifice as being something important.
However God has a very different perspective about a lot of things that our human limited minds do not have the ability to comprehend or understand.
His plan for salvation of human beings was set up by Him and the Bible says that His thoughts are higher than ours.
"As the heavens are higher than the earth, so are my ways higher than your ways and my thoughts than your thoughts". (Isaiah 55:8-10 NIV)
******************
He is the Potter and we are His Pots, to use figurative speech
"Shall what is formed say to the one who formed it, "You did not make me"? Can the pot say to the potter, "You know nothing" (Isaiah 29:15-17)
************
We need to humble ourselves and accept God's way of doing things, even if we do not understand it, or even agree with it.
What good does it do us to argue with God or disagree and not believe Him
***********************
So regarding the "Blood of Christ" let's see what God has to say about it.
"For this is my BLOOD of the new testament,
which is shed for many for the remission of sins"
Matthew (26:27-29)
For God presented Jesus as the sacrifice for sin. People are made right with God when they believe that Jesus sacrificed his life, SHEDDING HIS BLOOD
"This sacrifice shows that God was being fair when he held back and did not punish those who sinned in times past".
(Rom 3:25)
*******************
So we see that without the BLOOD of CHRIST we would not have our sins forgiven and still be under judgement and condemnation.
Jesus BLOOD was given as a sacrifice
for out sins
*****************
"How much more, then, will the BLOOD of Christ, who through the eternal Spirit offered himself unblemished to God, cleanse our consciences from acts that lead to death,so that we may serve the living God"!(Hebrews 9:13-15)
"Whom God the Father knew and chose long ago to be made holy by his Spirit, that they might obey Jesus Christ and be cleansed by HIS BLOOD: may you know more and more of God's grace and peace". (1 Peter 1:2)
*****************
Because of the BLOOD of CHRIST we are able to have clean clear consciences and be in right standing with God all the time, even when we don't feel like it.
So you can see from these scriptures that the BLOOD of JESUS CHRIST is critical to our salvation and right standing with God.
Because of the shedding of Jesus's BLOOD we have become the righteousness of God in Christ and
are in right standing with Him
No more "sin consciousness"
but "righteousness consciousness"
"For he hath made him to be sin for us, who knew no sin; that we might be made the righteousness of God in him".
(2 Corinthians 5:20-21) ***************************
Because of this wonderful thing God did for us, We can now see ourselves in right standing with God.
Fully accepted and loved by Him.Without this BLOOD we would not be able to approach God with free access boldly like we can now.
"Because of Christ and our faith in him, we can now come boldly and confidently into God's presence".(Eph 3:11-13)
"So let us come boldly to the throne of our gracious God. There we will receive his mercy, and we will find grace to help us when we need it most". (Hebrews 4:16)
************
WE MUST HAVE FAITH IN HIS BLOOD
"God presented Christ as a sacrifice of atonement, through the shedding of his BLOOD TO BE RECEIVED BY FAITH He did this to demonstrate his righteousness" (Rom 3:25)
"And from Jesus Christ, who is the faithful witness, and the first begotten of the dead, and the prince of the kings of the earth. Unto him that loved us, and WASHED US FROM OUR OUR SINS IN HIS OWN BLOOD" (Revelation 1:5)
***************
Why not take a moment right now and thank God, and the Lord Jesus Christ for shedding His PRECIOUS BLOOD on the CROSS for you and me so we can have salvation, and all the benefits of that salvation.
