The Blood of Jesus

There is no forgiveness without it.
"Without shedding of blood is no remission" (Heb. (9:22).

It satisfies the holy claims of God.
"When I see the blood, I will pass over you" (Ex. 12:13).

It makes atonement for the soul.
"It is the blood that maketh an atonement for the soul" (Lev. 17:11).

It redeems the believer.
"Redeemed . . . with the precious blood of Christ" (1 Peter 1:18,19).

It cleanses from all sin.
"The blood of Jesus Christ . . . cleanseth us from all sin" (1 John 1:7).

It justifies the believer.
"Being now justified by His blood" (Rom. 5:9).

Jesus' Blood Saves

Saved through the blood of Jesus,
   Saved from all guilt and shame,
Saved is the soul that trusts Him,
   Trusts in His precious name.
Safe in the Rock of Ages,
   Fearlessly he may hide;
Safe from the storms of judgment,
   Safe from the swelling tide.

Saved for the day of glory
   Then the redeemed will sing;
Still of the blood of Jesus
   Loudly their praise will ring;
Saved now to wait with patience,
   Looking with faith afar,
Till just before the dawning
   Rises the Morning Star.
