You Need Blood Most of All

Sinner friend, you need Blood most of all.  Your body needs physical blood all the time, or you would just pass out and die. Your soul needs Eternal Blood, or it will perish forever and ever in the Lake of Fire.  If you need blood for your body, you go to the American Red Cross.  If you need blood for your soul, you must go to Calvary's Red Cross where God in human flesh suffered, bled and died for miserable wretches like us.  No blood, no physical life.  No blood, no spiritual life.  Pretty clear, huh? 

Biblical Salvation (instantaneous forgiveness of sins and irreversible eternal life) is only found in a sinless Person's Precious Blood, not in anything you or your church can do.  You see, religion is big bidness in 2014.  Religion won't tell you the truths that you will read below, because this would run them out of business.  Jesus was running the Pharisees out of business; that's why they had Him crucified, but Jesus wouldn't stay dead.  The religionists of today you see on TV and hear on the radio are big bidness men; they are trying to make a name for themselves and make a buck off of people's superstitious and idolatrous nature.  Religionists today ramble on about everything and anything, but they will not point you directly to the Blood the Lamb of God.  You'll be white headed before you ever here this stuff in a church house again.  If you do hear this somewhere, please let me know.

This is the greatest Fact ever sounded in human ears - Man had sinned, and man must somehow make reparation for God's broken Law.  But sinful man is in a deadly predicament, for he has no righteousness to appease God's wrath.  Divine Justice requires an infinite payment for the crimes you've committed.  So God in Mercy provided a Substitute for the Law that was broken by sinful man.  The bent of man is always towards evil.  Man had revolted against God, and it must be through a man that God's Justice must be vindicated.  Behold the mystery of godliness - Jesus of Nazareth was God manifest in the flesh.  He condescended to the manger of Bethlehem, He was nursed from a woman's breast, He grew up in carpenter's shop.  Behold the Incarnate Creator, the Immortal dwelt among dying men, veiled in mortal flesh, so that He could redeem ungodly men.  God became a sinless man in order to reconcile sinful man back to Himself.  He bled and died to bring the free pardon of sin and eternal life life to the ungodly.  Jesus actually gave Himself for your sins.

Divine Love made the Invisible Creator Incarnate. The Incarnate Maker bleeding out His life for you.   The Gospel is a precious thing - the whole world could not pay for it.  It cost the Son of God His own Blood.  What have you to offer God for an atonement?  Your paltry works are nothing to God.  Salvation from sin is an unpurchasable gift.  The Gospel offers to rebels free grace and immediate salvation from sin and misery.  The merit of Christ's Blood is exceeding great beyond compare; you must believe in its eternal value.  The bloody death of the Great Redeemer has abounding merit and infinite cleansing in it, seeing that He was God in human flesh.  If your sins are not forgiven, you are in danger of hell fire.

Jesus forgives the underserving freely.  He will overlook your wretched character and have mercy on you in spite of all your sins against Him.  The root of all Biblical Salvation is simple faith in the Lord Jesus Christ Himself; away with every counterfeit belief you may have.  Genuine Faith lives on Jesus only, rests on His Atonement sincerely, and builds on His Righteousness solely.  Christ must be personally received; Christ must be living in the heart.  Have you actually the Spirit of God living and working within you?  Religion says, "Believe in Jesus, and then do your best to make up the rest." This is a gross and fatal delusion that religionists to get your money and damn your soul.  It is the sin of sins to reject the Savior who stooped to die in your place. Human nature refuses to give Jesus Christ all the glory. 

There must be a personal repenting, trusting, and feeding upon Jesus Christ Himself.  Your soul can only live by feeding on Jesus spiritually.  He is the spiritual Protein that your soul needs to give you energy within to live cleaner and better for His glory.  I can do all things through Christ which strengtheneth me.  Feed spiritually on the person and blood of Jesus only.  You can only conquer sin through the blood of Jesus.  Omnipotent, omniscient, and infinite Love now flows from Calvary's Cross.  

This is the great soul-saving Gospel - God in human flesh bore our sins and endured the wrath of God that our sins deserved.  Jesus was Incarnate Love bleeding for His enemies.  He lived in suffering and died in shame for you. Perfectly forgiven, absolutely saved, completely pardoned, infinitely loved for Jesus' sake - What more could a sinner want?   Jesus said, I will never leave thee, nor forsake thee.  We are loved to death and redeemed by atoning blood.  Jesus is the Lamb of God, the Incarnate God, the Bleeding Mediator, the Atoning Advocate, the wounded, slain, and resurrected Redeemer.  Christ Jesus came to Earth and dwelt with sinners, and now the Holy Spirit dwells within those sinners that trust to Jesus' Blood.  

I must feed spiritually on these two truths:  1. God was manifest in the flesh - I feed on Jesus' humanity and Deity - His flesh is spiritual food for my soul;  2. He shed His atoning blood to take away sins.  His shed blood is spiritual drink for my soul.  I think and feed on His Deity and Atonement constantly.  I consider what Jesus went through for me to save my guilty soul - this is the food that strengthens my faith.  Redeeming grace and dying love has paid my way.  My soul has been purchased completely by Blood Divine.  Reconciliation to God has occurred for my soul through faith in the sinless Substitutionary Sacrifice of Christ Jesus Himself.  Redemption by the Incarnate God who bled and died in the sinner's place.  Gratitude, love, confidence, and purity comes from feeding on Jesus.

God became a Jewish man to bleed and die for you.  Are you going to trust Him with your soul, or not?  Through His Blood you can have Redemption, even the forgiveness of sins.  When the idea of self-salvation exists, sin is lightly thought of, and divine justice is not understood.  Sin is a deadly thing.  It is a dreadful thing to live in an unforgiven state.  Our pardoned guilt brings joy in God and abhorrence of the sins which caused the death of Christ Jesus the Lord.  Jesus was Mercy personified, Love embodied, Grace Incarnate, but He became Sin personified on the Cross in order to rescue us from sin.  *II Corinthians 5:21*  Only the Blood of Jesus can remove your dreadful load of sin.  All the sins that men have done in will, word, thought, or deed since time began, were laid on the Savior's shoulders.  It is a dreadful thing to neglect Christ's great Salvation, to fall into the hands of the living God, to have no faith in Christ, to be very busy about everything but neglect your own soul.
