The Gospel of Jesus Christ Matthew 27:50 / Hebrews 4:14-16

The phrase “blood of Christ” is used several times in the New Testament and is the expression of the sacrificial death and full atoning work of Jesus on our behalf. References to the Savior’s blood include the reality that He that knew no sin literally bled on the cross, but more significantly that He bled and died for sinners. The blood of Christ has the power to atone the sins committed by all people throughout the ages. 

To speak on the subject, I had to go back to see when and where the power of the blood or the lack thereof was first introduced to us in the Word of God.  God Himself first introduced the significance of the blood in the Garden of Eden.  When man fell and first knew he had sinned he felt naked, exposed and destined to die in his sin. He hid from God presence and felt the total separation from God, he became a dead man walking and inherited a sin nature.  You see sin separates us from God. It is true it happened, but because of God love for us He made a way out of no way to allow us to be able to come before Him, a way to redeem us from the penalty of sin, extended His righteousness toward us if we believe, we are then found not guilty.

 The first prophesy was given by God Himself in Genesis 3:15 the coming of the alternate blood sacrifice that would come, shed His blood for the remission of our sin once and for all. After Adam and Eve sinned in the garden, God gave them skins of animals to cover up (Genesis 3:21). God made the first blood sacrifice for his people in the Garden; He showed His love for us at the beginning of our sinning.

Come and join.
