The blood of Jesus Christ has great power! There is perhaps not a phrase in the
Bible that is so full of secret truth as is "The blood of Jesus." It is the
secret of His incarnation, when Jesus took on flesh and blood; the secret of His
obedience unto death, when He gave His life at the cross of Calvary; the secret
of His love that went beyond all understanding when He bought us with His blood;
the secret of the enemy and the secret of our eternal salvation. - Corrie Ten
Boom
With a weak faith and a fearful heart, many a sinner stands before the Lord. It
is not the strength of our faith, but the perfection of Christ's sacrifice that
saves! No feebleness of faith, nor dimness of eye, no trembling of hand can
change the efficacy of Christ's blood. The strength of our faith can add nothing
to it, nor can the weakness of our faith take anything from Him. Faith (weak or
strong) still reads the promise, "the blood of Jesus Christ His Son cleanses us
from all sin." If at times my eye is so dim that I cannot read these words,
through blinding tears or bewildering trials, faith rests itself on the certain
knowledge of the fact that THE PROMISE IS THERE, and the blood of Christ remains
in all its power and suitableness upon the altar, unchanged and unaffected. -
Horatius Bonar
Learn to know Christ and him crucified. Learn to sing to him, and say, "Lord
Jesus, you are my righteousness, I am your sin. You have taken upon yourself
what is mine and given me what is yours. You have become what you were not so
that I might become what I was not." - Martin Luther
It horribly skews the meaning of the cross when contemporary prophets of
self-esteem say that the cross is a witness to my infinite worth. The biblical
perspective is that the cross in a witness to the infinite worth of God's glory,
and a witness to the immensity of the sin of my pride. - John Piper
We must know the power of the Blood if we are to know the power of God. Our
knowing experimentally the power of the Word, the power of the Holy Spirit, and
the power of prayer is dependant upon our knowing the power of the Blood of
Christ. - R. A. Torrey
When Jesus Christ shed his blood on the cross, it was not the blood of a martyr;
or the blood of one man for another; it was the life of God poured out to redeem
the world. - Oswald Chambers
