Jesus' Blood Makes Us Bright And Clean


But now in Christ Jesus, you who once were [so] far away, through (by, in) the blood of Christ have been brought near. Ephesians 2:13
And this is the message [the message of promise] which we have heard from Him and now are reporting to you: God is Light, and there is no darkness in Him at all [no, not in any way]. 1 John 1:5
At that time [when that day comes] you will know [for yourselves] that I am in My Father, and you [are] in Me, and I [am] in you. John 14:20
We are now light because of the power of Jesus’ Blood. Before we  were empowered by the Holy Spirit to know that we were accepted by Jesus we were far away, but now through the eternal power of our Lords Blood, shed on the Cross, we are nigh Him. Which means we are united and one with our Father as Jesus is united and one with our Father, John 17:23. We are now members of Jesus’ body, we are now His Temple, and we are now the branches of His Vine! When Jesus talks about us it is always as unified and one with Him. Jesus is a hands on Savior and He never will leave us or forsake us! With Jesus we are never in the dark, we are always able to see clearly through the faith that He Author’s and Finishes for us!
He went once for all into the [Holy of] Holies [of heaven], not by virtue of the blood of goats and calves [by which to make reconciliation between God and man], but His own blood, having found and secured a complete redemption (an everlasting release for us). For if [the mere] sprinkling of unholy and defiled persons with blood of goats and bulls and with the ashes of a burnt heifer is sufficient for the purification of the body, How much more surely shall the blood of Christ, Who by virtue of [His] eternal Spirit [His own preexistent divine personality] has offered Himself as an unblemished sacrifice to God, purify our consciences from dead works and lifeless observances to serve the [ever] living God? Hebrews 9:12-14
Jesus has brought us into His Light and His Light continually and eternally drives out the all darkness from us!
