The Blood = Righteousness

by Tonja Taylor
11/05/2023 / Salvation

We are made right with God by placing our faith in Jesus Christ. And this is true for everyone who believes, no matter who we are. For everyone has sinned; we all fall short of God’s glorious standard. Yet God, with undeserved kindness, declares that we are righteous. He did this through Christ Jesus when he freed us from the penalty for our sins. For God presented Jesus as the sacrifice for sin. People are made right with God when they believe that Jesus sacrificed his life, shedding his blood. This sacrifice shows that God was being fair when he held back and did not punish those who sinned in times past, for he was looking ahead and including them in what he would do in this present time. God did this to demonstrate his righteousness, for he himself is fair and just, and he declares sinners to be right in his sight when they believe in Jesus.--Romans 3:22-26, NLT

There is power in blood, as both Christians and devil-worshipers know.

But only--forever and only-- the Blood of Jesus Christ, the only Savior of the world, makes a person right with God!

And Christ lives within you, so even though your body will die because of sin, the Spirit gives you life because you have been made right with God.--Romans 8:10, NLT

Even as true Believers in Christ, many have continued to commit sin, because they feel condemned; they don't know they are right with God, or, rather, they don't believe it (Ask me how I know.).

However, the closer we draw to the LORD, the more we realize how much He loves us; and that truly, we could never be good enough for Him in ourselves. He is holy, and we have a sinful nature--until we truly believe in what Christ Jesus did for us on the cross, by dying and shedding His pure blood for all mankind on the cross. Hallelujah!

Once we choose to believe (and it is a choice!) that Jesus Christ is the only Savior; the only Way to Heaven, and repent of our sin (ask Him to forgive us) and to come into our hearts as the Holy Spirit and be our Savior and LORD, then we are adopted into the Royal Family of God. We become a child of Father God, and a joint-Heir with Jesus Christ.

We are made right with God!

Hallelujah!

The LORD makes it easy! Jesus did all the work, and it is by His Grace, through His choice to sacrifice Himself, that we are given the freedom to choose whether to receive Him or not.

By the way, the only thing that sends people to hell is rejecting Jesus. In other words, not choosing to repent of sin, nor believe and receive Him as Savior and LORD--not sinful behavior, although that is always hurtful to oneself and those around that person--is what condemns people.

When the Holy Spirit of Truth draws people to Christ Jesus, by convicting (not condemning) them of sin; that they need to repent, cause it's hurting them, primarily by separating them from God, Who is holy, and cannot abide sin (and every human is born into sin, from the fall of Adam and Eve in the Garden of Eden. Jesus is the only Answer for that!).

To be right with God--and escape eternal separation from Him, which is what hell really is!--we must choose to repent of our sin, and receive Christ Jesus as our Savior and LORD!

His Presence is Heaven on earth! Praise the LORD, we don't have to wait till our bodies die--we can know the living God Who is Love (I John 4:8) right now, on earth! He is the most loving, generous, kind, faithful, truthful, gracious, patient, understanding, merciful, compassionate Father! He is the coolest! He is the awesome God; the Creator and Sustainer of Heaven and earth, Who is yet so in love with His kids, and so very tender, gentle, and personal!

God always wanted a big family. That's why He created the exquisite Garden of Eden, and then created Adam and Eve, and put them in it--after everything was perfect and supplied. When they betrayed Him and sold out to the enemy, all mankind was plunged into a sin nature, and thus could never be right with God.

The only hope for any person to ever be right with God is through the power of the pure blood of Jesus Christ--one's belief in what that pure blood did at the cross of Calvary, over 2,000 years ago.

Looking for that blessed hope, and the glorious appearing of the great God and our Saviour Jesus Christ.--Titus 2:13, KJV

God makes it so easy! It's wordly, demonic fear, doubt, and unbelief that deceives people and tries to tell them there are many ways to be right with God; many ways to Heaven.

Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me.--John 14:6, KJV

Only believing in the power of the blood of Jesus Christ to cleanse us from our sin can one be saved, but that will do it!

But God commendeth his love toward us, in that, while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us. --Romans 5:8, KJV

If you would like to receive Jesus Christ, God's Son, as your Savior and LORD, then say this simple but powerful prayer out loud: Dear Jesus, I realize I need You to please forgive me and cleanse me from my sins by Your holy blood, which You shed when You died on the cross for me, over 2,000 years ago. I choose to believe that You are the only Savior of the world. Please come into my heart and be my Savior and LORD. I receive You now, and thank You. In Your Name, amen!

Now, if you prayed that sincerely, you have become born again; you have become a child of the Living God, the LORD of Heaven and earth! You are now part of His Royal Family, and you are His child. Hallelujah, and congratulations on making the best decision of your life!

Ask the LORD (God is now your Heavenly Father, Who knows everything about you from before you were born, including every thought you've ever thought, or will, and every word you've ever spoken, or will!) to show you the right Bible to study, the right Bible-believing church to go to; to bring you friends that love and follow Him, and to lead you to good worship music that glorifies Him.

These are not works; these are things you need in your life to teach you His ways, and keep you strong in Him. He is faithful and good, and loves you very much! He will help you!
