THE ATONING BLOOD OF JESUS
Bible says : For the life of the flesh is in the blood, and I have given it to you upon the alter to make an atonement for your souls, for it is the blood that maketh an atonement for the soul ( Lev 17 : 11) Since the first sin, since the first bite of that forbidden fruit, in ( Gen 3 : 6 - 7) Atonement has been a crucial concept in God's dealings with man. The word atonement has come to mean different things to different people. When Bible uses the word, it means " to suffer the penalty for sins, thereby removing the effects of sin from the repentant sinner and allowing him or her to be reconciled to God. Jesus Christ was the only one capable of carrying out the atonement for all mankind. John 1 : 29. Isa 53 : 7 - 8. 1 Pet 1 : 18 - 19.
Acts 4 : 12. Rejoice in your deliverance from sin. Atonement has been made for you, and you may live free of Satan's bo***ge, through the precious blood of Jesus Christ. Hear the father saying to you today, When I see the BLOOD, I will pass over you ( Exd 12 : 13)
