A bloodless sacrifice

Hebrews 9:22 And according to the law almost all things are purified with blood, and without shedding of blood there is no remission.

Ephesians 1:7 In him we have redemption through his blood, the forgiveness of sins, in accordance with the riches of God’s grace.

In Genesis 4 we see that God rejected the bloodless sacrifice of Cain. Instead of accepting the counsel and correction from God, Cain slew his brother Abel out of jealousy. Through the centuries until now there are so many religions that try to offer a bloodless sacrifice to God or their gods by rejecting the sacrifice of Jesus Christ at the cross of Golgotha or by twisting His word. Like Cain, they try to serve God by their manmade efforts and means, often persecuting those, who are true followers of Jesus Christ. They are blinded to the things of God. God does not accept manmade religions, He sets the requirements in the Word of God, the Bible. God Himself took on flesh and became the perfect Lamb of God without blemish to redeem mankind. There is no substitution for Gods plan of redemption. (see Isiah 64:6, 1 Timothy 3:16, Romans 3:10-12)

Multitudes live in spiritual darkness and in traditions that were handed down from generation to generation. They don’t know God and His love, goodness, grace and salvation. Others are atheists, disappointed by religion or other plenty deceptions from the enemy of their soul.

May God help and use His church greatly to show forth His abundant love and glorious truth in this dark world in word and deed for His Glory. Luke 19:10 For the Son of Man has come to seek and to save that which was lost. Jesus can do anything and He is at work. Zechariah 4:6 Not by might nor by power, but by My Spirit,’ Says the Lord of hosts. Eternity is too long to be wrong. ra
