The most awesome power God has ever released for mankind to have is the power of the Blood. The Blood of Jesus Christ shed for your Redemption and for mine will never lose its power. Until you understand the power of the Blood, the purity of the Blood, the purpose of the Blood, and the protection of the Blood,
you will never understand the true history of the world or God's plan for mankind.
The crimson stream of blood begins at the gates of Genesis. Adam and Eve sinned, and they were cast out of the garden. They were naked and ashamed many in our generation are not. God, the Creator, appeared with animal skins that had been freshly slaughtered from an animal to cover their nakedness. The principle was established that without the shedding of blood, there is no remission of sin. This principle was also established, that the innocent must suffer for the guilty.
So, four thousand years later, Jesus Christ, the Son of the Living God, carried His blood-soaked cross up the hills of Calvary and the innocent was slaughtered on a Roman cross for you and for me. Revelation 13:8. The cross was the destiny of Jesus Christ from the Garden of Eden. The Apostle John writes, "The Lamb of God was slain from the foundations of the Earth."
That means when Genesis 1:1 was written, it was already destined for Jesus to die, and I make that point
because there are a host of preachers in America teaching that when Jesus came to the Earth, because the Jewish people didn't accept Him, Rome killed Him. That is a ball-faced lie! It doesn't have one iota to do with the Word of God. When the foundations of the Earth were established, God told His Son, "There is going to be enmity between the Seed of the woman and Satan himself. And You are going to be that Seed, because You are going to go to Calvary and defeat the Prince of Darkness and the saved of the world are going to be saved by Your Blood.
Six things God hates. "Hands that shed innocent blood." That means that God hates the hands of every doctor and nurse in every abortion mill in the United States and the World! Hang on to your hat. Innocent blood demands the capital punishment. Genesis 9:6, quote, "Whoever sheds an innocent man's blood, by man's hands, his blood must be shed."
God is the author of the death penalty. When you kill an innocent person, God is his Defender. And He demands that other men take that man's life. It's just settlement according to God. I know the ACLU doesn't like that but when you die and stand in the Judgment, the ACLU is going to be in line. They're not going to be judging you. God will be the One judging them! Without the Blood of Jesus Christ, Christianity is a powerless fraud. Without the Blood of Jesus Christ, the church is a religious fraternity of people living in absolute deception. Without the Blood of Jesus Christ, our preaching is in vain! Our worship is a farce! We have ritual without righteousness! We have ceremony without conversion! We have deception, not discipleship! Without the Blood of Jesus Christ, the church is nothing, because it has nothing to offer if it doesn't offer salvation for the soul.
Read with me Hebrews 9:22, "And according to the law almost all things are purified with blood, and without shedding of blood there is no remission of sin."
Father God, thank You for Your Word. Let us hear this message because it is Your message for a Godless generation that has lost its moral compass. In Jesus Name we pray, Amen!
The power of the Blood, the message of the cross, is considered in most of America's churches today too confrontational. If it's too confrontational, let's take a serious look at what's happening in America today.
Today we have mass murders in shopping malls! Mad men with AR-15 automatic rifles are invading schools and slaughtering our children! Churches and synagogues are soaked in the blood of their church members!
Anarchy is in the street. Policemen are being shot on site! They're being murdered while they're in their squad cars! They're shot trying to protect we the people from the barbarians that are in the street! Our nation has lost its moral compass! It's time to be confrontational with evil that's destroying this nation! To
see evil and not call it evil IS evil! Not to speak is to speak! If we see it and don't stop it, the fault is ours! Let God arise and let His enemies be scattered and let the torch of His truth illuminate that we may find our way back to the cross!
Satan's greatest fear is the Blood of Jesus Christ! The Secret of unlimited power in our preaching, the secret of unlimited power in our praying, is the Blood of Jesus Christ! It is the Blood that makes the Word of God powerful! It terrorizes Satan and every demon in hell! It sets the captive free from the chains that enslaved them! It is the Blood that guarantees my salvation and yours! It is the Blood that conquers death, Hell and
the grave! It is the Blood that brings healing! For by His stripes, we are healed! It is the Blood that breaks generational curses! Things have been happening generation after generation after generation in your family! You need to draw the Blood circle around your family and let your family be protected by the Blood of Jesus Christ!
One drop of that precious Blood sets you free from the bondage of sin. It makes your sin, though it be stained like crimson, to be whiter than snow! One thing God can never do is remember sin that has been forgiven by the Blood of Jesus Christ. He buries your sin in the deepest sea, never to be remembered anymore! One drop of Blood from the Lamb of God and the angels write your name in the Lamb's Book of Life! The stench of sin is removed from you forever! One drop of the power of the Blood and you are no longer a slave! Your chains are broken! You are instantly adopted into the Kingdom of God to become a child of the King! You are royalty! You are loved! You are destined to wear a crown of life! You are destined
to wear a robe of righteousness! You are destined to live in a mansion built by the architect of the ages! You become a member of the family of God when the Blood of Jesus Christ is applied to your life!
Peter says the Blood of Jesus Christ is precious. It was precious because a river of blood from bullocks and goats could never save you. Only the precious Blood of the Lamb of God can save you! The blood of turtle doves cannot save you. The only thing that can save you is the precious Blood of Jesus Christ!
Random acts of kindness cannot save you! Salvation is not possible through church membership. There's not a verse in the Bible that says that salvation is made by water baptism. Water baptism is a testimony of Salvation. You can go down a dry sinner and come up a wet sinner! Without the Blood of Jesus Christ, that's
what happens! You are saved only by the Blood! It is only the Blood that can remove the death penalty from my life and from you!
"For Christ hath redeemed us", the Bible says, "from the curse of the law." He became a curse for us on the cross! That curse was broken when he said, "It is finished.", and once and for all, we became royalty in the Kingdom of God!
There's a scarlet stream of blood that flows through the scriptures. It begins at the gates of Genesis and
does not stop until it reaches the end of Revelation. Adam and Eve sinned, and God made coat skins of animals that were covered with blood. The stream of blood continues with Cain and Abel.
Hebrews 11:4, "By faith Abel offered to God a more excellent sacrifice than Cain, through which he obtained witness that he was righteous, God testifying of his gifts; and through it he being dead still speaks."
Cain offered the works of his hands. God will always reject the works of your hands to gain Redemption. He will always accept the Blood of the Lamb to provide Redemption. The scarlet stream of blood continues 16 centuries passed with little scriptural notice. And then came the flood. Noah's first act after the flood was to worship God by the shedding of blood. Sin again prevailed. God called Abraham and asked him to sacrifice his son on an altar. His son, Isaac. God spared Isaac and a realm was provided and the blood of that realm
covered that altar on that day.
400 years now passed. Joseph, with his coat of many colors, was sold into slavery by his jealous brothers. The Bible says all 11 of them were so angry with him, they wouldn't even speak to him. They took his coat of many colors and soaked it in blood and convinced their father that he had been destroyed. Joseph was sent into Egypt. He was sold again into the house of Potiphar. Potiphar's lust-driven wife falsely accused Joseph of rape. He was sent to prison which meant her husband knew he was innocent or else he would have had him killed immediately!
He was sent to prison later. He came out as Prime Minister and he brought his brothers and his father, Jacob, to live in the rich lands of Goshen. A family became a nation in a matter of several hundred years. How were they set free? By the shedding of blood. The blood of the male lambs sprinkled over the door, on the sides of the door, in the trough at the base of the door, over the top of the door of the house. The house was sealed by lamb's blood. When the death angel came through Egypt, everyone that had blood over the door was spared and everyone who did not, the firstborn in their family died that night! Tears were heard from one end of Egypt to the other. But from the houses where there was blood over the doorpost,
there was nothing but peace and tranquility.
The Blood is our protection. The Blood is our power. The Blood is our Passover. The Old Testament blood was necessary for every divine right for the consecration of a house for the birth of a child for repentance of sin for Festivals for blood Covenant contracts. God Almighty made a blood Covenant contract in Genesis 17 to the Jewish people, Abraham, Isaac and Jacob, and their descendants for the land of Israel and a blood
Covenant was made that can never be broken based on the integrity of God that the land of Israel does in its totality belong to the Jewish people.
In the past, it belonged to the Jewish people. Today, it belongs to the Jewish people. Ten thousand years from now, because God said so! And the issue is settled. How does the New Testament begin? "Behold
the Lamb of God Who taketh away the sins of the world." The announcement was made right there that
His purpose was to be killed. He was the spotless male lamb. He was without blemish. He was holy. He was pure. He was destined to die from the foundations of the world. He was our escape.
God the Father took our sins and put it on His head. And in Israel, the Lamb of God, was taken to the edge of the mountain. The sins of Israel cast on the head of our Redeemer. Jesus Christ died. He died. The Bible says once and for all. He was the ultimate and last sacrifice! And because of the Cross, every person that names His Name and holds true to the Cross, is redeemed. Holy. Made pure by the Blood of Jesus Christ!
The scarlet stream of blood trickled down that old, rugged cross. Through every book in the New Testament. Through the book of Acts. Through the book of Romans. Through the book of Corinthians. Through the Galatians. Through the Ephesians. Through the Philippians. Through the Colossians. Through the Thessalonians to the book of Timothy. Through Titus to Philemon. Through the Hebrews. First and Second Peter. First, Second and Third John, Jude, and now the scarlet frame of blood comes to the Book of Revelation. And John writes, "Unto Him that loved us and washed us from our sins in His own Blood and
hath made us Kings and Priests unto God. To Him be Glory and Power and Dominion, forever and forever amen!"
Look at Jesus in Pilate's courtyard. With ruthless brutality, like men dragging an ox to be slaughtered,
they dragged the Son of God with sacrilege hands from His place of prayer in Gethsemane, to His place of agony and merciless mockery. They put on Him a purple robe. They unleashed unmatched cruelty! They thrust a crown of thorns into His head. His cheeks became soaked once again with His Blood.
Think of the power that Christ had. With one word, He could have pulverized the Earth! But He allowed
those barbaric people to murder Him so that we can come before the Throne of Grace and receive His precious gift of Salvation and know beyond a shadow of a doubt that our sins have been buried in the deepest sea, never to be remembered against us anymore! That we, the Church, can stand triumphant over our adversary, the Devil! We are whiter than snow because of what Christ accomplished on the cross! We are free! We are free! We are free! Hallelujah to the Lord God Almighty!!!
Picture Him tied to the whipping post. Remember the movie, "The Passion of the Christ"? Remember the scene where they whipped Him? First with whipping rods, then, when He pulled Himself back to His feet, they changed from whipping rods to a pair of cat of nine tails! Remember them showing Christ the jagged, metal pieces? They were offended by the Lord's courage to stand up after being beaten so severely. So, they resorted to more brutal methods. Methods that left Him laying in a crimson pool of His own Blood.
Little did they know that the very Blood they spilled and stained the ground with, would redeem the world from the wages of its sins. Remember how Jesus hung on that Cross in the movie? How He suffered and bled on that Cross? Remember the sight of Him on that Cross? It was for you, and it was for me. and every man, woman and child on Earth. "For God so loved the world, that He gave His only begotten Son. That whosoever believes in Him, shall not die, but have everlasting life."
Without the shed Blood of Jesus Christ, there is no hope. There is no future. But with that Blood, we have everlasting life! There is victory over death! Over hell! Over the grave! Over the enemy! He will cause them to scatter! Let God arise and His enemies be scattered!
The Blood of Jesus Christ is the only way to Salvation. Jesus said, "I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father, except through Me." Secular humanists say we're all on different roads going to
the same place. That's a ball-faced lie! There's not a verse in scripture to support that! Without the shedding of blood, there is no remission of sins! That's God's law!
Someone says, "Is God's heart so hard that it will not show mercy when He sees me cry on Judgment Day? Do you mean to tell me that I can be a good person, give to charity, volunteer at local charity work, always give to those in need, that that's not enough for God to forgive me?" The answer is no! Without the shedding of blood there is no remission of sin!
You can be a good person, a giving person, do everything that the world says makes you a good person. Live an inspiring life. Have all the recognition from the world as a great man or woman, and still end up burning in hell fire! Why? Because you have refused, renounced, even flat out rejected the Blood of Jesus Christ to wash your sins away and redeem you from the wages of sin, which the bible says, is death itself!
The Blood is eternal. It's good for this world and the next one. People say, "Oh yes, after death I'm going
to have my soul prayed out of purgatory into Paradise!" Please understand, there is no purgatory! That's a man-made fabrication! Pure and simple.
When you get on the other side of your last breath, you're either going to be in the presence of God or the fires of hell. And it's going to be instantaneous! The Blood of the Christ guarantees the remission of sin. "Can you prove that?" Yes!
Go to the tomb of Joseph of Arimathea, where Jesus was laid after His crucifixion. He is not there! Why is the tomb empty? It's empty because God the Father judged the sacrifice, Who was Jesus, and that sacrifice at the cross was deemed sufficient and all of the sins of mankind forever are canceled! The Angels removed the stone not to let Jesus out, but to let us in so that we could see that God had accepted the sacrifice and
because He lives, we shall live also!
Think about what all we have thanks to the Blood of Jesus Christ. Unlimited power for protection. This is my confession; I am free from the curse of sin by the shed Blood of Jesus Christ! The demons of Hell see me walking down the street and say, "We can't touch that guy. We tried to take him out several times. He is covered with the Blood of Jesus Christ! He is untouchable! Don't touch him!"
When I die and my body leaves this Earth, angels are going to carry me through the second Heaven, which is the devil's bedroom. The devil is going to see me coming and he's going to say to every Power and Principality, "Back up! Here he comes! He's covered with the Blood of the Lamb! He's on his way to the Father's Throne! We can't touch him!
Thought he was in hell, didn't you? No way. The devil and his demons won't be cast into hell until the Lord's return to this Earth! For now, he is in the second Heaven, accusing the Church before the Throne of God. Remember in the book of Job that the Bible says when the Sons of God came to present their offering that the devil was among them? Where are the Principalities we hear about in the Bible, with Satan in the second Heaven ruling over nations of the world.
Hallelujah! Hallelujah!! Hallelujah for the Blood of Jesus Christ!!! Give Him praise and glory! You are
untouchable! The Blood of Jesus Christ has set you free! Rejoice and be exceedingly glad! Hallelujah for the
Blood of the Lamb!!! AMEN!!!!!!
