If we examine the value of the death of Christ, what do we find attached to it in Scripture?
Do I need redemption?
We have redemption through His blood, an eternal redemption, for “by His own blood, He entered in once into the holy place, having obtained eternal redemption” (Heb. 9:12).
Do I need forgiveness?
That redemption which I have through His blood is the forgiveness of sins (Eph. 1:7). Yea, without shedding of blood is no remission.
Do I need peace?
He has made peace through the blood of His cross (Col. 1:20).
Do I need reconciliation with God?
Though we were sinners yet now hath He reconciled us in the body of His flesh through death (Col. 1:21, 22). When we were enemies we were reconciled to God by the death of His Son (Rom. 5:10).
Do I feel the need of propitiation?
Christ is set forth as a propitiation through faith in His blood (Rom. 3:25).
Do I need justification?
I am justified by His blood (Rom. 5:9). How are we washed from our sins?
He has loved us and washed us from our sins in His own blood, for His blood cleanseth from all sin (Rev. 1:5; 1 John 1:7).
Reader, have you learned the value of the death of Christ for yourself?
