there is power in the blood: reconciliation through the blood

there is power in the blood: reconciliation through the blood by ric Gustafson


One of the blessings of the blood of Jesus is reconciliation. Sin has made reconciliation necessary. God's holiness foreordained reconciliation . The blood of Jesus obtained it. A pardon results from it. In reconciliation, God's objective is the destruction of sin. Sin has an effect on God and us. Sin has power on us. God can not overlook sin. Sin is disobedience going against the authority of God. Man is guilty. Guilt is debt.
God's holiness is infinite and perfection. Can the guilt of sin be removed?. The answer is yes. Jesus accomplished this by having a willing and perfect obedience. He completely surrendered to the will of his Father. Jesus became flesh and became the second Adam.
The good news was that the blood of Jesus was shed. Atonement for sin was made. Sin has been blotted out because of the blood of Jesus. With reconciliation comes a pardon.
