The Blood of the Lamb
What are the peculiarities of the Blood of the Lamb?
1 John 1.7: "But if we walk in the light, as he is in the light, we have fellowship with one another, and the blood of Jesus his Son cleanses us from all sin."
Just like the Name of Jesus, The Blood of the Lamb is a great power that confers several indissociable and immutable characters. It is by the grace of God that we can know its fullness.
Romans 3:24: "And they are freely justified by his grace, by the means of the redemption that is in Christ Jesus, whom God hath purposed, by his blood, to be, for those who would believe propitiatory victim, to to show his justice.... "
The propitiatory word in Hebrew "Kaphar" is close to the verb "to cover": Jesus "covered" our sins with his blood, and God is now "propitious": favorable. He is the Lamb without blemish and without task, preconceived before the foundation of the world. The Lord is from eternity, the resource of God for the misery of man. The blood of Christ is the offering to cover the sins of the world.
Isaiah 53.5: "And by his stripes we are healed."
After his judgment, the flogging of Jesus was the beginning of deep bruising. The Roman whips were composed of thongs, at the end of which were attached ossicles and pieces of scrap. It would be irresponsible to minimize this horrible torment, tearing its flesh and causing blood to flow in unthinkable proportions. Sometimes that was enough to cause death. Jesus received 39 lashes, in the world we find 39 categories of diseases. The Lord by his bruises covers every strain of all these diseases.
