The Blood Of Jesus Justifies Us

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

Do you see why our Father had Paul write that there is now no condemnation for us in Romans 8:1? How could there be condemnation when the Blood of Jesus has justified us, cleansed us, allowed us to be in God’s holiest. Jesus' Blood has perfected us, liberated us, glorified us, purified us internally and externally, and redeemed us completely? This is the Stumbling Stone that is Jesus, it takes being truly 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 that we have been studying together be true? I mean Jesus could have just saved us, but never really empowered us. They are important so that we can serve and so that our Father 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! Our Father 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 in abilities and understanding, 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, and that means Who He is, so are we, even in this world, the two of us have become one flesh. As Jesus 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! We are now members of His Body, of His Flesh, and His Bones! That is how great our salvation is, Jesus freely shed His Blood so that we could be one with Him!
