Life Lines
By Linda Lariscey
GOD'S NUCLEAR WEAPON
How much more severely do you
suppose a person deserves to be judged
who has contempt for God’s Son,
and who scorns the blood of the new
covenant that made him holy, and who
mocks the Spirit who gives him grace? Hebrews 10:29 (TPT)
What can wash away your sins, nothing but the blood of
Jesus? Christians will readily say I believe that Jesus died
for me, and He took my place on Calvary's cross. But many
do not have the revelation that it was His precious blood
alone that redeems them from destruction. Apart from the
shedding of blood, your sins remain.
Bloodless salvation is like a loveless marriage. To see
someone you love die, as the blood flows from his body,
profoundly affects a person. To unbelievers, Jesus’
crucifixion holds no meaning at all. Christ’s death does not
move the unbeliever and to speak of His blood is repugnant.
The power of His blood is foolishness to people who prefer
to think that their goodness, statue, or fine family is enough
to save them.
But what of the Christian who leads a life of neutrality
which is neither hot nor cold? He has no passion for Christ
because He is blind to Christ’s passionate love displayed
on the cross. Here is the rub: how can believers remain
aloof and emotionless when it comes to the blood of Jesus,
which purchased their life? Does not that “believer” scorn
His blood and fail the grace of God?
In this hour of our nation, we must all examine our hearts.
Are we indeed in the faith? More pointedly, do we have
confidence in the blood of Jesus, God’s nuclear weapon to
cleanse us from sin and set us apart from the world? May
we all enthusiastically praise the Lord for His precious blood.
We cannot help to shout, cry, or jump for joy as it washes
away every dead work of what we deem to save us. We
gladly surrender all, for He has opened our eyes to see that
He gladly sacrificed all for us!
