FORGIVENESS OF SIN THROUGH JESUS BLOOD


IOI CHRISTIAN MORNING MEAL

TOPIC: FORGIVENESS OF SIN THROUGH JESUS BLOOD

Ephesians 1:7
“In Him we have redemption through His blood, the forgiveness of sins, according to the riches of His grace.”

Because of Christ’s shed blood, God is able to forgive us for our sins and give the punishment that we deserved to Christ.
To be able to enter into God’s presence through the blood of Christ, we are also forgiven of our sins.

Christ had a special way of explaining this to his disciples during the Last Supper, which also was the Passover meal celebration.

He said, “For this is my blood of the covenant, which is poured out for many for the forgiveness of sins” (Matthew 26:28). He was telling His disciples that just as the blood of the lamb delivered the Hebrews from the night of terrors in Egypt, so Christ’s own blood would deliver the people who were covered by it from the judgment of God on the last day.

This truth is expressed beautifully in the hymn, “Nothing But the Blood”

What can wash away my sin?

Nothing but the blood of Jesus;

What can make me whole again?

Nothing but the blood of Jesus.

Oh! Precious is the flow

That makes me white as snow;

No other fount I know,

Nothing but the blood of Jesus…

We suppose to be happy as christian, that Christ has cleansed us from our sin with his blood!
Hallelujah

LET US PRAY
DEAR LORD JESUS CHRIST, LET YOUR BLOOD BE ALWAYS ENOUGH FOR OUR CLEANSING IN JESUS NAME

Share this meal
Good morning friends
