Christs Blood Perfects Us

"Now the God of peace, that brought again from the dead our Lord Jesus, the great Shepherd of the sheep, through the blood of everlasting covenant, Make you perfect in every good work to do His will, working in you that which is well pleasing in His sight, through Jesus Christ; to Whom be glory for ever and ever. A-men." Hebrews 13:20-21

The God that bore Jesus from a virgin, the God Who came from nowhere and Who stood on nothing and spoke and here it all is, the God Who delivered Jesus from the pits of Hell, the same God, with all of the same power, has made us perfect through the Blood of Christ! Look at what the Bible teaches, don’t look at religion, look at the Word, our Father has made us perfect in every good work by the everlasting Blood of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ! Every work that is pleasing to God, through the power of the Blood of Christ, He has made us perfect in that work! Our Father is working in us because of Jesus’ Blood, God is working within us, A-men God is working in us!

Jesus came and He perfectly did that which was pleasing to God. Jesus never once failed at anything, every task and every work that was needed to secure our salvation, Jesus completed through the power of God that was within Him! Yet Jesus said that He was not good. “And Jesus said unto him, Why callest thou Me good? None is good, save One, that is, God.” Luke 18:19 Did Jesus lie? Our Savior said only God was good, and our Savior said that it was God in Him Who did the works. Jesus said these things and accomplished these things in the same way that we can, because of God! God uses the Blood of Christ to make us perfect, He uses the Spirit to empower us, just as His Spirit empowered Jesus, our Father does it all.

"Wherefore Jesus also, that He might sanctify the people with His own blood, suffered without the gate." Hebrews 13:12

The Blood of Jesus allows God to sanctify us. The Greek word for sanctified is, Hagiazo, Strong’s 37, it means:

to render or acknowledge, or to be venerable or hallow

to separate from profane things and dedicate to God

consecrate things to God

dedicate people to God

to purify

to cleanse externally

to purify by expiation: free from the guilt of sin

to purify internally by renewing of the soul

Through the Blood of Christ we are hallowed, separated from profane things, consecrated to God, cleansed externally and internally, and we are free from the guilt of sin! The Blood has made us all of these things and the Blood has allowed our Father to perfect us and the Blood has allowed our Father to perform every good work through us and to do that which is pleasing to Him. We have been redeemed with the very Blood of God and His Blood is powerful stuff! "Forasmuch as ye know that ye were not redeemed with corruptible things, as silver and gold, from your vain conversation received by tradition from your fathers; But with the precious Blood of Christ, as of a lamb without blemish and without spot;" 1 Peter 1:18-19

"Much more then, being now justified by His blood, we shall be saved from wrath through Him." Romans 5:9

Do you see why God had Paul write that there is now no condemnation for us? How could there be any condemnation when the Blood of Jesus has justified us, cleansed us, allowed us to be in God’s holiest, perfected us, liberated us, glorified us, purified us internally and externally, and redeemed us? This is the Stumbling Stone that is Jesus, it takes being humble to accept these Truth’s, and it takes the Holy Ghost dwelling within us to even begin to think about having them. But if you are saved, you have them!

Why is it so important that these Truths be true, I mean Jesus could have just saved us, but never really empowered us. It’s important so that we can serve and so that God can fulfill through us the very purpose of our creation! Our Father said let us make man in Our image and Jesus said the world would believe because we are now one with Him! God made us in His very image so that we could have true fellowship with Him. Think about fellowship, you can have a companion, yet if the companion is so far above you or beneath you, there really isn’t perfected fellowship. To have true fellowship you have to be equal, a man can’t have true fellowship with a dog, even though there is companionship, there isn’t equality and there is no perfect fellowship. To have fellowship and to truly serve the needs of the world it has to be that what Jesus is, so are we, that means Who He is, so are we. As He is so are we in this world! Jesus said it, and He said it over and over again and then He had the Apostles and others write it!

Now as Jesus is, so are we, so as He speaks, so do we; there is none good, but God, and it is God doing the works through us. Yet we stand in perfection and glorification because the only Good One has used the perfect Blood of Jesus to make us that way! We are saved because of Jesus, we are glorified because of Jesus, we are perfect and sanctified because of Jesus, and our Father through Jesus’ Blood has done it all for us. The Blood of Jesus was the tool that God needed to allow us all to be as His Son is. Faith comes from hearing and hearing from the Word of God. God is not a man that He should lie, if He said the Blood has done this for us, than the Blood has done this for us!

Jesus Who thought that it wasn’t robbery to be called equal with God; took on the form of a servant for a little while and than went up and took His rightful place with God. Let this mind that was in Jesus be in you. Jesus knew Who He was, He knew Who God was, He knew He was born of God, and He served by the power of God that was within Him. So tell me, where are we different? Jesus did it all by the power of God, He did nothing on His own, so where are we different? Were we born of a different Spirit? Did God send a different Holy Spirit to us then He sent Jesus? Do we do any works on our own? Show me where the difference is? There is only one difference, and it is a huge difference, Jesus is Lord, but we have our Lord’s Spirit, we have our Lord’s Father, and we are one with our Lord! It is our Lord working within us to carry out every perfect work that is fully pleasing unto our Father! Jesus is our Head, He is the Vine, and we are the branches and the same life force that runs through the Vine runs through the branches!

Be blessed and Jesus is Lord!
