The Precious Blood of Jesus

 


Precious Blood of Jesus, Part XVI

Every purification takes place by means of blood, how precious will be the Blood of Unblemished Jesus Christ 

Hebrews 9:22 (NJB): In fact, according to the Law, practically every purification takes place by means of blood; and if there is no shedding of blood, there is no remission. Without shedding blood, there is no remission of sin. Lord has offered his own flesh as a sacrifice. Every purification involves blood, and how precious is the Blood of the Unblemished Lamb, Jesus Christ. Jesus shed his own blood on the cross at Calvary. In the Old Testament, Yahweh our Lord was furious with the Israelites for offering animal sacrifices for the remission of sins. Isaiah 1:11 (NJB): What are your endless sacrifices to me?’ says Yahweh. ‘I am sick of burnt offerings of rams and the fat of calves. I take no pleasure in the blood of bulls and lambs and goats. He says He is not taking any pleasure in such kind of sacrifices. God doesn’t see any eternal value on these sacrifices.
