The Precious Blood
“The precious blood of Christ.”
1 Peter 1:19
On the cross, Christ’s blood was shed as a sacrifice–His death for our death, His life for our life. This is why the Apostle John tells us that when we sin as Christians, we do not despair. We do not immediately fear we have lost our salvation. No! Instead, we confess our sins, return to the light and have the assurance that “the blood of Jesus Christ His Son cleanses us from all sin” (1 John 1:7) daily.
Since His one sacrifice is sufficient to pardon all the sins of all of God’s people, it is as powerful to pardon us today as it was when He shed His blood on the cross!
Will you pause to thank the Lord Jesus again for shedding His precious blood for you?
