Believe in the Blood of Jesus
(John 6:53-58)
Overseer Sung-Hyun Kim
God
is eternal life.
He
loved the world and gave His only begotten Son
to give eternal life – He gave His precious blood (Jn 3:16).
Our faith is in
the Lord Jesus’ blood (Mk 14:23-24).
If the Lord did not shed blood, there is no forgiveness (Heb 9:22).
When God sent His only begotten Son to the world,
God gave His own blood (Acts 20:28).
The only begotten Son came in the flesh, and this is the blood (Jn 1:14).
We do not believe a character
or believe a story about heaven.
We believe in the blood of Jesus Christ (Mt 20:28),
which was shed under God’s will (Jn 6:37-40).
You must drink His blood to gain life (Jn 6:53),
for Jesus was put to death on the cross
so He could shed His blood (Jn 19:33-34).
People ask, “How you can drink His blood?”,
but you must drink it to gain eternal life.
This is the will which God planned from eternity.
○ Jesus saved us by dying on the cross,
and He purchased us by the blood He shed.
We became His possession.
○ We acknowledged Jesus’ merit
by accepting baptism;
we entered the door of heaven by His blood.
○ God loves Jesus
and the church is Jesus’ body.
God truly loves the church.
※ When we love the church,
this is love for Jesus
and this is pleasing to God.
