The central truth of Christianity is "God Incarnate's Precious Blood." That is a phrase that you will rarely hear in Christendom today. Christendom in 2013 is all about religious psychology, self-righteous personal convictions, social issues, marriage counseling, and motivational speaking, not the Gospel of the Grace of God. God Incarnate (Incarnation) - Precious Blood (Substitution).
Religionists will not tell you what you are about to read, because if they did, they would be slap out of business ($$$). Religionists will never simplify the Gospel, because if they did, they couldn't con a buck off a sucker anymore. Religion deals with the symptoms of sin, and not with sin itself. Jesus simplified the Gospel, and it cost Him His life. *Luke 22:2* The Pharisees hated Jesus when he started affecting their attendance numbers and pocket book. *John 7:1-7*
Today's religious world does not want to hear this: Your sins are a deadly and damning thing. Your heart is selfish and sinful. By nature, there is no good in you; you are inwardly full of sin; and God's Holiness is at enmity with your sins, for your sins are the works of the devil. The vileness of your sinful heart can only be washed out by the Lamb of God's most Precious Blood. If you continue to reject Christ and follow the evil devices of your own heart, you will bring upon your soul inevitable destruction.
Turn your eye of faith now to the true God and Savior, the Lord Jesus Christ. You commit the greatest sin by trying to help God out with your Salvation. Your greatest wickedness is your self-righteousness that tends to make you think you can please the divine justice of God with your own human morality or goodness. Always remember, a sinner is not moral or good at all. You have an urgent need of a Salvation by the Blood and Righteousness of Another.
Christ Jesus came into the world to save sinners from the love of sin and the wrath of God. Trust to God's promises from the Scriptures, take Him at His word, repent of your self-righteousness, cast your guilt soul upon the Christ's Blood and Righteousness. I have no trust but the finished cross-work of the Lord Jesus Christ. The Holy Spirit must first revive sin within you, that is, show you the horror of your guilt and the heinousness of your sins against God, and then bless you with the agony of mind and conscience that will lead you to repentance, and persuade you to give up your self-righteousness altogether, and to rely only on Christ's Atoning Blood.
If a man thinks he can go to Heaven partly by his good works and religiousness, let him try to do so, but he'll go to Hell trying. One of two things, either you must be saved without deserving to be saved - saved by the sinless works and blood of Another - or else you must keep the whole Law flawlessly, and inherit Eternal Life in your own merit and way. The two main reasons a man goes to Hell is he thinks he is good enough to get saved without Jesus Christ, or a man thinks that he can add to Christ's Righteousness with his own efforts. The Holy Ghost must make you sense your guilt, thirst, inability, danger, and the need of forgiveness through the merits of Another. Now understand - You cannot escape your sin debt and guilt by any works of your own. The only escape from the divine justice your sins deserve is faith in Immanuel's Precious Blood.
All I can do is point you to the living Christ, and invite you to trust to His Blood alone for all your Salvation. Simply rely on the Incarnate God's Atoning Blood and His Justifying Righteousness. There is absolutely nothing in you that can help save you from the divine justice that your sins deserve. You cannot help yourself when it comes to your sins, for you have no righteousness of your own at all. You must take Christ, or die in your sins and perish. The Holy Spirit must slowly hem you up into a corner where there is only one way of escape, that is, the Blood and Righteousness of Another, Jesus Christ.
Be wise now - confess your guiltiness, humbly seek for pardon down low at the feet of Jesus, and simply trust to the Precious Blood of the Lamb of God. Are you relying wholly upon the Precious Blood? Have you had your sins freely pardoned through the shed Blood of God manifest in the flesh? Have you received the free forgiveness of sins through Jesus' mercy alone? Are you glorying only in Christ's Atoning Sacrifice? Is the Cross (Christ's Blood Atonement for human sin) your soul's only hope and refuge? Is your faith fixed only on the Precious Blood?
Look now only to God's Free Grace, Precious Blood, and Infinite Mercy through Christ Jesus. Are you experiencing an inward struggle and conflict with your sins? This is one of the first true evidences of the New Birth. *John 3:7; I Peter 1:23; Romans 7:23* The Precious Blood will work in you a hatred and detestation of all sins. Is your inward evil and corruption warring against you daily? Inward evil can only be overcome through the power of His Precious Blood. Place your faith and trust in the Precious Blood and on nothing else. The pivotal fact of the Gospel is that God manifest in the flesh suffered, bled and died to satisfy the divine justice that was due to your sins. My hope is fixed on nothing less than Jesus' Blood and Righteousness. Per Fidem in Sanguine Tatum!
Believe God's promises, plead His mercy, rely on His Son, confide in His Precious Blood. Jesus must save your soul by His Finished Work, that is, His Blood and Righteousness which God has accepted on your behalf, not at all by your doing or feeling. Whosoever shall believe on the Lord Jesus Christ shall be rescued from the love of sin. Christ Jesus has been punished for my sins; I am now clothed in Christ's Righteousness, and I stand accepted eternally in the Beloved. Only the Holy Spirit can lead you to a personal interest and trust in the Precious Blood of God Incarnate (Christ Crucified). Your soul has two eyes, and the eyes of faith and obedience must both be wholly fixed on Christ Jesus Himself. Take care that your faith remains simple and fixed solely on God Incarnate's Precious Blood. Iesum Christum in Carne Deus Omnipotens!
