“Coming to the Blood”
Hebrews 12:24-29
Have you accepted the precious blood of Jesus for Salvation, Atoning and Redeeming power? Not just a head knowledge of realizing that He died on a cross, and you believe a certain doctrine about it; not going through certain ceremonies that satisfies the conscience; or some ecstatic experience that carried you away in a fleshly stupor or dream; but have you been to Jesus for the cleansing power of the blood? The Bible says that the life of man is in the blood, without your blood, you will die in a few short minutes. And so, the spiritual life of a person is in the blood of the one that gave it to another for him to live; And so, our life is hid with Christ in God, by the acceptance of the once and for all time transfusion of Christ’s blood into our veins. By believing that He died for us, and arose on the third day as He promised, and fully trusting Him to forgive us of all our sins and then turn completely around to live a life separated from the world. But while still living in this world, empowered by the filling of the spirit of God that indwells each believer.
Has the holy Spirit brought you to the blood, that you may be covered? If you came with nothing to offer, “In my hand, no price I bring, simply to the cross I cling.” But simply your own guilty self, helpless and lost, then you came trusting the blood, and it alone for your only hope and eternal salvation. As you step closer to Him, His blood cries out, “it is finished,” a way is made that you can live; will you trust Him?
“To The Blood”
If you came once, to the blood of Christ,
You’ll come again, more than once or twice;
It’s His righteousness, His comfort and joy,
That we seek daily to fondly employ.

Weekly Memory Verses: 1 John 1:5-10
5 This then is the message which we have heard of him, and declare unto you, that God is light, and in him is no darkness at all.
6 If we say that we have fellowship with him, and walk in darkness, we lie, and do not the truth:
7 But if we walk in the light, as he is in the light, we have fellowship one with another, and the blood of Jesus Christ his Son cleanseth us from all sin.
8 If we say that we have no sin, we deceive ourselves, and the truth is not in us.
9 If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just to forgive us our sins, and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness.
10 If we say that we have not sinned, we make him a liar, and his word is not in us.
