Nothing but the Blood of Jesus
But He was wounded for our transgressions,
He was bruised for our iniquities; The chastisement for our peace was upon Him,
And by His stripes we are healed.
Isaiah 53:5
When I read the above verse, I Think about people who say is there a God existing . I don’t believe in God . But when we ask the people with another question are you a sinner or have you sinned before? There are Different answers from them and it is all pointing to Yes. Some of the answers I have given below
1. Who doesn’t sin
2. Well a righteous person will always have evil thoughts in his mind
3. Who doesn’t lie, everybody lies?
4. Who doesn’t sin everybody does?
Yes we are all sinners and fall short in God eyes says the bible
In Science there is a law- Newton’s third law says that “for every action there is an equal and opposite reaction” . We all accept that and it is proven
The bible says the same, “whatever a man sows he will reap”
Imagine for the sins we do we have to face the consequences
But God so loved us that he made a exception to make his son , our Lord Jesus Christ to carry it for us as in the above verse Isaiah 53:5
I was a born Catholic. Every Good Friday I used to go to the church to see the drama of the Crucification of Christ. Yet I see people are not touched by it or repenting from their sins because Satan blinded them from the truth that it is because of our sins Jesus has to go to the cross & to make us holy & righteous he has to spill his precious blood
There is a revival in Israel I saw in happening in YouTube where a group of people saved by Jesus preaching Gospel only with the chapter Isaiah 53 to the Jews. When they are preaching the truth and spell the name “Yeshua” in Hebrew all of the Jews say our ancestors didn’t believe in Him then so we don’t believe in Him now. They preach the same from Isiah 53 which says nobody accepted Him not even his own people but Jesus gave his life to redeem all of us from our sins. They show evidences from this chapter and from the prophetic books and the only person who fits the description is Jesus and many are touched by their ministry and believe that Jesus died to redeem them from their sins.
A servant of God who was mightily used by God for bringing revival in America in the 20th century told these amazing words. When I go to heaven and if they ask me a password to enter heaven I would say it is “The cross of Christ”. It is not because I am famous or preach to many crowds but it is only because of Jesus who took my sins in the cross and without Jesus there is no hope of heaven for me. Yes it is true that we don’t have any hope of heaven no matter how much we accomplish or do, our social status or our wealth no matter what we have if we don’t come to The Cross and washed by the blood of Jesus Christ we don’t have any hope of heaven or Eternity.
Prayer
Lord Jesus we come to The Cross where you have carried our sins. Cleanse us with your blood “O” Lord that we may be Holy and righteous when we enter this new year and live according to your will. In Jesus name I pray. Amen
