In previous parts of this series on the Blood of Jesus we have looked at a sampling of Scriptures from Genesis to the Book of Revelation. It was not an exhaustive sample but gave us an idea of the importance of blood in the storyline God gives us from the creation of Adam through the return of Jesus as KING […]
THE BLOOD OF JESUS, Part 4
(Note: All Scriptures are in the New King James Version unless indicated differently) We have come to the place in this study where we will look at how the symbolism of the sacrificial system in the Old Testament is fulfilled in the New Testament in the blood of Jesus. The Old Testament sacrificial system that God set up with the […]
THE BLOOD OF JESUS, Part 3
Many people avoid reading the Old Testament and yet it provides some absolutely fascinating reading. The true accounts, which are verified in many ancient writings in addition to the Bible itself, show us the intimate involvement of our Creator with the human race, His prized creation. In Part 2 of this study on the Blood of Jesus, we began tracing […]
THE BLOOD OF JESUS, Part 2
I strongly believe that the Bible must always be taken literally unless the context makes it clear otherwise. We must understand that concepts are being taught in the Word of God about the Blood of Christ, the most unique Blood in the entire universe.

JERUSALEM UPDATE–May 25, 2013 (Time of the Essence!)
This post is a continuation of updates having to do with an underground Christian ministry to Muslims. The emphasis has been to show those who serve a prophet and god that advocates murdering infidels because they will not convert to Islam. Bibles are given free of charge and taken over the border around Israel, lately the emphasis being on Syria which is on the edge of total collapse. The founder of this ministry was nearly beaten to death with clubs and stoned by Hezbollah, but is still sharing the love of God. This is a genuine ministry of love to people who have been taught to hate and kill. God on the other hand is a God of love, compassion, and forgiveness. This is the message of this article.
