Dear Friends,
I hope you had a peaceful week! This week where I live it is up in the
50's and it is feeling like spring!
The devot. for today is a carry over of our topic of us being washed "white
a snow" in light of our sins being
like "scarlet."
I've included as excerpt from last Friday devotional explaining what is
meant by this statement. Hope its helps to
clarify and shed spiritual light!
"How can blood make anything white? Usually it stains and can't come out.
Yes, in the human sense this is true.
But we are talking about in the spiritual sense. So how can blood make us
white? Because it is Christ's blood and His blood
has a spiritual cleaning power! Think of a spiritual Oxyclean! It works
'deep down,' (deep into our heart, spirit, lives), gets 'the toughest stains'
(the worst kinds of sin imaginable), and leaves us clean and white ('and
the blood of Jesus Christ his Son cleanseth us from all sin' " (1 John
1:7).
This is a powerful Biblical truth, folks and is what Easter all really all
about. Christ's suffering and the blood He shed was God's means and plan
of paying for the sins of mankind. His resurrection proved He was God and
demonstrated that what He did paid for the sins of mankind in full, there was
nothing
we had to do ourselves to get to Heaven because He already paid our ticket
to get there through His blood and it also showed we could have the hope of Have
through
trusting HIs finished work on the cross. This is something to reflect on
and I pray you will do so this weekend.
Lord bless and keep safe and healthy you and your loved ones this weekend!
