Seven ways the Blood of Jesus was shed for us

1. In the Garden of Gethsemane He sweated

Drops of blood Luke 22:44 And being in anguish, he prayed more earnestly, and his sweat was like drops of blood falling to the ground.

2.At the trial of the high priest He was beaten

And His blood was shed

3.He shed His blood the third time when they

Plucked out his beard. Isa 50:6 I offered my back to those who beat me, my cheeks to those who pulled out my beard; I did not hide my face from mocking and spitting.

4.Beat with a whip 39 stripes Mat 27:26 Then he released Barabbas to them. But he had Jesus flogged, and handed him over to be crucified.

5. The Crown of Thorns Mat 27:29 and then twisted together a crown of thorns and set it on his head. They put a staff in his right hand and knelt in front of him and mocked him. "Hail, king of the Jews!" they said.

Mat 27:30 They spit on him, and took the staff and struck him on the head again and again.

6.Crucified ; nails in hands and feet

7.Side pierced with a spear John 19:34 Instead, one of the soldiers pierced Jesus' side with a spear, bringing a sudden flow of blood and water.

1 Pet 1:19 but with the precious blood of Christ, a lamb without blemish or defect.

2.We are Justified by the Blood
