Christ’s Atoning Blood
Jesus shed His blood and gave
His life for our salvation; and because
of that, we can have the divine blood in
our souls that will keep us free from sin
and give us eternal life. By the which will
we are sanctified made holy through
the offering of the body of Jesus Christ
once for all (Hebrews 10:10). Without the
divine blood, there is no forgiveness for
sin; but through that blood, we are made
holy. The Bible says, Be ye holy; for I the
Lord am holy (I Peter 1:16).
You must be born again if you want to see
Heaven, and the divine blood of Jesus is
essential to being born again and receiving
eternal life. Jesus said, Verily, verily, I say
unto thee, Except a man be born again,
he cannot see the kingdom of God (John
3:3). That is why it is up to you to help turn
on the light of the Gospel for the billions of
lost souls throughout the world.
Whom God hath set forth to be a propitiation
through faith in his blood, to
declare his righteousness for the remission
of sins that are past, through the
forbearance of God (Romans 3:25). “To
propitiate” in this verse means to gain or
regain God’s favor by doing something to
please Him. Jesus did that for you and me
when He became our sacrificial Lamb on
the Cross of Calvary. He shed His sinless
blood to atone for our sins, and God was
satisfied with that divine blood offering.
Through the blood of Jesus, you are
made nigh unto God just like Adam and
Eve were nigh unto Him in Eden before
they sinned against Him. But now in
Jesus said, All power is
given unto me in heaven
and in earth. Go ye therefore, and
teach all nations, baptizing them in
the name of the Father, and of the Son,
and of the Holy Ghost: Teaching them
to observe all things whatsoever I have
commanded you: and, lo, I am with you
alway, even unto the end of the world.
Amen (Matthew 28:18–20). There is great
power in the divine blood of Jesus.
All too often, the real value of the divine
blood of Jesus has been ignored by the
Christian world; but man’s greatest connection
to God is through the divine
blood. Life-changing salvation only comes
through the divine blood of Jesus. For the
life of the flesh is in the blood: and I have
given it to you upon the altar to make
an atonement for your souls: for it is the
blood that maketh an atonement for the
soul (Leviticus 17:11).
Under the Law, people had to offer animal
sacrifices to make atonement for their
sins; but those sacrifices did not keep them
out of sin. For it is not possible that the
blood of bulls and of goats should take
away sins. Wherefore when he Jesus
cometh into the world, he saith, Sacrifice
and offering thou wouldest not, but
a body hast thou prepared me (Hebrews
10:4,5). And every priest standeth daily
ministering and offering oftentimes the
same sacrifices, which can never take
away sins: But this man Jesus, after he
had offered one sacrifice for sins forever,
sat down on the right hand of God
(Hebrews 10:11,12).
