The BLOOD of JESUS

When you consider you own body -- if you did not have 'blood', your body would totally fail - - dead. Leviticus 17 tells us that the 'life of the flesh is in the blood' - also - 'for it is the life of all flesh. Its blood sustains its life.' To know this should raise the question of eternal life. That eternal life is also a fact of 'blood' - blood that is able to sustain our life. Thus it is only through the 'blood of Jesus' that we have 'eternal life'. It is the blood of Christ that sustains our life here and in particular - beyond. If we know that our own fleshly life is not without blood, we must consider 'eternal life' in the same way.

John 6:53
Then Jesus said to them, "Most assuredly, I say to you,
unless you eat the flesh of the Son of Man
and drink His blood, you have no life in you.

John 11:25 Jesus said to her, "I am the resurrection and the life.
He who believes in Me, though he may die, he shall live.

That there is NO LIFE 'beyond' outside of the 'blood of Christ'. When our life ceases here it can only continue in BLOOD -- that is, the blood of Christ.









INTERESTING:  When you look at the DALET'S composition - you see 'cross, heart, and the dalet which is the door of life or death.  We had a saying when I was a kid 'cross your heart and hope to die' - -which evidently comes from meaning of the letter DALET.  * Oops.  Says DALET on the chart above the letter - -should say DOOR

















SELAH

SHALOM!
