Beware of the Blasphemous Blood Bashers [podcast]
Why the Blood of Jesus Matters So Very Much
There is LIFE and Power in the “Precious BLOOD“ of Jesus Christ
Beware of all who deny the redemptive, purifying power of the “precious blood“ of Jesus Christ.
Beloved saints of Christ, whatever you do, make it your immediate action and life goal to study all that the Bible, the Word of God says about Christ’s perfect blood sacrifice for the sins of the world.
“Of how much sorer (more severe) punishment, suppose ye, shall he be thought worthy, who hath trodden under foot the Son of God, and hath counted the blood of the covenant, wherewith he was sanctified, an unholy thing, and hath done despite unto the Spirit of grace?” Hebrews 10:29
Notice “the blood of the covenant” which refers to Jesus’ statement below. There is no separating of the blood of Jesus and the new covenant and “the remission of sins.”
“For this is my blood of the new testament, which is shed for many for the remission of sins.” Matthew 26:28
Those who trodden under their evil feet the very blood of Jesus will be trodden down, stomped and sent to the lake of fire (Revelation 19:11-16)
“Whom God hath set forth to be a propitiation (atoning sacrifice) through faith in his blood, to declare his righteousness for the remission of sins that are past, through the forbearance of God.” Romans 3:25
The inheritance we have in Christ, is only via the “redemption through his blood.”
“Giving thanks unto the Father, which hath made us meet to be partakers of the inheritance of the saints in light: 13 Who hath delivered us from the power of darkness, and hath translated us into the kingdom of his dear Son: 14 In whom we have redemption through his blood, even the forgiveness of sins: … And, having made peace through the blood of his cross, by him to reconcile all things unto himself; by him, I say, whether they be things in earth, or things in heaven.” Colossians 1:12-14, 20
“’Without shedding of blood there is no remission of sins.’ Without remission of sins there is no life. But by the shedding of His BLOOD He has obtained a new life for us. By what He calls ‘the drinking of His blood’ He shares His life with us. The blood SHED in the Atonement, which frees us from the SIN, the guilt of sin; and from death, the punishment of sin; the blood, which by faith we drink, bestows on us His life.” Andrew Murray The Powerof the Blood of Jesus
“Life is in the blood! -Lev. 17:11 How can they not see this? It can’t get any simpler than Col. 1:14 …in whom we have REDEMPTION through his BLOOD, even the FORGIVENESS of sins.” Jon Crane
Salvation and the blood of Jesus cannot be separated. They are divinely, eternally inseparable.
There is no salvation without Christ’s blood (Matthew 26:28).
There is no redemption without Christ’s blood (Colossians 1:14).
There is no justification without Christ’s blood (Romans 5:9).
There is no escaping judgment without the blood of Jesus (Romans 5:9; Hebrews 2:9)
There is no forgiveness of sin without Christ’s blood (Matthew 26:28; 1 John 1:7; Revelation 1:5).
There is no peace with God without “the blood of his cross” (Colossians 1:20).
There is no righteousness from God granted to fallen man with out the “precious blood“ (Romans 3:25; 1 Peter 1:18:19).
“But if we walk in the light, as he is in the light, we have fellowship one with another, and the blood of Jesus Christ his Son cleanseth us from all sin.” 1 John 1:7
Jesus is “the mediator of the new covenant” and this came by way of His “sprinkling” His “precious blood” on the mercy seat in Heaven.
“And to Jesus the mediator of the new covenant, and to the blood of sprinkling, that speaketh better things than that of Abel.” Hebrews 12:24
Only by Christ’s blood can our sins forgiven.
“And he is the propitiation (atoning sacrifice) for our sins: and not for ours only, but also for the sins of the whole world.” 1 John 2:2
To say that the “precious blood“ of Jesus is integral to the original Gospel, to the redemption plan of God, is an infinite under statement (1 Peter 1:18-19).
“For the life of the flesh is in the blood…” Leviticus 17:11
Adam Clarke on the BLOOD of Christ – the divine life in that “precious blood.”
“Christ not only died for sinners, but our redemption is everywhere attributed to his Blood, and the shedding of that blood; and that on the altar of the cross, this might make an atonement for the lives and souls of men, he not only bowed his head, and gave up the ghost, but his side was opened, the pericardium and the heart evidently pierced, that the vital fluid might be poured out from the very seat of life, and that thus the blood, which is the life, should be poured out to make an atonement for the life of the soul.”
“For the life of the flesh is in the blood: and I have given it to you upon the altar to make an atonement for your souls: for it is the blood that maketh an atonement for the soul.” Leviticus 17:11
“For this is my blood of the new testament, which is shed for many for the remission of sins.” Matthew 26:28
Mankind fell into sin, by sin – separated hopelessly from our Holy God until Jesus reconciled us, re-stored us back to God by dying to expiate (atone) for our sin.
“It is the blood that unites the beginning and the end; that GLORIOUSLY RESTORES WHAT SIN HAD DESTROYED.”― Andrew Murray, The Power of the Blood of Jesus
“And now we also have liberty to enter through the Blood. Sin took away our liberty of approach to God, the Blood perfectly restores to us this liberty.” ― Andrew Murray, The Power of the Blood of Jesus
“That spirit of antichrist” that has control of you seeks to deny, to diminish, to rob Christ, who shed His blood, of His “one Mediator” crown (1 John 4:1-3; 1 Timothy 2:5-6).
“Much more then, being now justified by his blood , we shall be saved from wrath through him. 10 For if, when we were enemies, we were reconciled to God by the death of his Son, much more, being reconciled, we shall be saved by his life.” Romans 5:9-10
If there’s no power in the “precious blood“ of Jesus, why this?
“And the blood shall be to you for a token upon the houses where ye are: and when I see the blood, I will pass over you, and the plague shall not be upon you to destroy you, when I smite the land of Egypt. 14 And this day shall be unto you for a memorial; and ye shall keep it a feast to the LORD throughout your generations; ye shall keep it a feast by an ordinance for ever.” Exodus 12:13-14
Christ’s blood speaks in Heaven and will be celebrated “for ever.”
“And from Jesus Christ, who is the faithful witness, and the first begotten of the dead, and the prince of the kings of the earth. Unto him that loved us, and washed us from our sins in his own blood,” Revelation 1:5
“I want to show you in the Bible why it is necessary for the blood of Jesus to be shed and why without that blood you couldn’t be saved. You will learn why that blood has saving efficacy. I want you to follow me very carefully as we study together on the subject of the importance of the blood of Christ, and the fact that it does save.” Jack Hyles
More on “the blood thereof” being “the life thereof.”
“But flesh with the life thereof, which is the blood thereof, shall ye not eat.” Genesis 9:4
H.A. Maxwell Whyte on Power of the Blood:
“Though we know it to be true—because He told us, exactly how the sinless blood of redemption was imputed to sinful men is a mystery.
How Jesus transported His precious Blood from Calvary to heaven is not understood by mortal men, but the Scripture shows that He fulfilled the type, and therefore He must have sprinkled His own blood upon the mercy-seat (the throne of God) in heaven.” – H. A. Maxwell Whyte, The Power of the Blood. Springdale, Pa.: Whitaker House, pub, 1973, pg. 64
The false god of Hinduism and Islam had no son, much less the Son of God. The one and only true God sent His only begotten Son. The Son of God came and died for the sins of the world to redeem (buy back) us to the Father from our sins which alienated us (John 3:16; 1 Timothy 1:15; 2:4-6; 3:16; 1 Peter 3:18, etc.). Jesus Christ is King. Blood sacrifice…. Cain vs Abel. False vs true religion. The way of God has from the beginning been a blemish-less blood sacrifice (Genesis 3:15; 4:4; Leviticus 17; Matthew 26:28, etc.).
“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; 19 But with the precious blood of Christ, as of a lamb without blemish and without spot:” 1 Peter 1:18-19
The claims of the Father’s justice to redeem mankind could only and exclusively have been satisfied by the perfect sacrifice of His only begotten Son (2 Corinthians 5:19). On the sole basis of the perfection of the LORD Jesus, the Lamb of God who shed His blood on that cross for our sins, lies our redemption.
There is power in the blood.
“Would you be free from the burden of sin?
There’s pow’r in the blood, pow’r in the blood;
Would you O’er evil a victory win?
There’s wonderful pow’r in the blood.
Refrain:
There is pow’r, pow’r, wonder-working pow’r
In the blood of the Lamb;
There is pow’r, pow’r, wonder working pow’r
In the precious blood of the Lamb.
Would you be free from your passion and pride?
There’s pow’r in the blood, pow’r in the blood;
Come for cleansing to Calvary’s tide;
There’s wonderful pow’r in the blood.
Would you be whiter, much whiter than snow?
There’s pow’r in the blood, pow’r in the blood;
Sin-stains are lost in its life-giving flow;
There’s a wonderful pow’r in the blood.
Would you do service for Jesus your King?
There’s pow’r in the blood, pow’r in the blood;
Would you live daily His praises to sing?
There’s wonderful pow’r in the blood.”
2 John 9
“Whosoever transgresseth, and abideth (continues, remains) not in the doctrine of Christ, hath not God. He that abideth in the doctrine of Christ, he hath both the Father and the Son.”
At the heart of “the doctrine of Christ” is the “precious blood“ He came to shed on that cross without which no sinner could be saved, washed, redeemed, reconciled to God! (1 Peter 1:18-19; Revelation 1:5, etc.) To insinuate that His blood was not the divine agent to redeem fallen mankind is to blasphemously indict the Almighty for sending His only begotten Son in vain. Those who do not uphold the doctrine of the blood of Christ are not saved, are no longer saved. Read 2 John 9 above once again. Get to know this Bible verse very well saints. You are going to need it often in this late hour, as we live in fervent expectancy for the return of our LORD Jesus.
“To not see this truth is to be completely blind. Heb 9:12; Matt. 26:28; amongst the other verses you shared should drive home the importance of Christ’s blood to any true disciple. Let the words of Galatians 1:8-9 be upon these wolves!” Jon Crane
WARNING: There is a growing roving group of antichrists, a veritable brood of vipers (snakes), who are going around perpetrating the lie that “there was nothing special about the blood of Jesus.” Some of them are authors and/or in the ministry with large audiences. The most popular of which is full-blown diabolical Calvinist heretic John MacArthur who blasphemously stated: “The only importance the blood of Jesus has is that it showed He died. There is no saving in that blood itself.”
It’s actually just the opposite: His body was broken so His “precious blood” could be poured out for the redemption of fallen mankind (Colossians 1:14).
John MacArthur’s ministry is a cult following and we know that because they don’t care how many heresies he perpetrates, they still defend and follow him. Sad. “Strong delusion” is upon them for putting any man or doctrine above God and His Word (2 Thessalonians 2:9-12).
A bloodless gospel is “another gospel,” a false, damning gospel, and anyone peddling such is “accursed” (Galatians 1:6-9).
“He says the Blood has no power. He says you can take the mark and go to heaven. Calvinist license to sin. He’s a wolf.” Tom Y.
Matthew 26:28
“For this is my blood of the new testament, which is shed for many for the remission of sins.”
Notice: “shed” not spilled. It was intentional, not accidental. In fact, that is exactly why He came – to offer His broken body, His “precious blood” poured out for the sins of the world (Matthew 26:18; Luke 19:10; Romans 5:9; 2 Corinthians 5:19; 1 Peter 1:18-19; Revelation 1:5, etc.).
The Perfect Ultimate Blood Atonement of Jesus Christ
“IT IS THE BLOOD THAT MAKETH AN ATONEMENT FOR THE SOUL.” Leviticus 17:11
“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; 19 But with THE PRECIOUS BLOOD OF CHRIST, as of a lamb without blemish and without spot:” 1 Peter 1:18-19
DID YOU CATCH THAT? – God calls the “blood” of His only begotten Son, Jesus Christ, “PRECIOUS” and anyone who says otherwise, it a blasphemous heretic and wolf from Hell.
“For it is the life of all flesh; the blood of it is for the life thereof … for the life of all flesh is the blood thereof …” Leviticus 17:14
“For this is my blood of the new testament, which is shed for many for the REMISSION of sins.” Matthew 26:28
“Whom God hath set forth to be a propitiation (atoning sacrifice) through faith in his blood, to declare his righteousness for the REMISSION OF SINS that are past, through the forbearance of God;” Romans 3:25
“Much more then, being now justified by his blood, we shall be saved from wrath through him.” Romans 5:9
“In whom we have redemption through his blood, even the FORGIVENESS OF SINS:” Colossians 1:14
“And, having made peace through the blood OF HIS CROSS, by him to RECONCILE all things unto himself; by him, I say, whether they be things in earth, or things in heaven.” Colossians 1:20
“Neither by the blood of goats and calves, but BY HIS OWN blood he entered in once into the holy place, having obtained eternal REDEMPTION for us.” Hebrews 9:12
“The hidden value of His blood is the spirit of self-sacrifice, and where the blood really touches the heart, it works out in that heart, a like spirit of self-sacrifice. We learn to give up ourselves and our lives, so as to press into the full power of that new life, which the blood has provided.”― Andrew Murray, The Power of the Blood of Jesus
The Uniqueness and Exclusivity of Christ
Jesus alone accomplished perfect redemption, as only He could. “It is finished” means paid in full (John 19:30). He paid for the sins of mankind all by Himself – on that cross, then was buried and raised again “for our justification.” (Romans 4:25)
“When he had BY HIMSELF purged our sins, sat down on the right hand of the Majesty on high;” Hebrews 1:3
In Dialogue with a Man Who Sought to Inform me that there’s no Specialness about Christ’s Blood, the following response was given:
You stated that the only reason the blood is involved in redemption is because Jesus had to lose all His blood before He could die. Yet the truth is just the opposite. Jesus had to die in order to shed His “precious blood“ – “It is the blood that maketh an atonement for the soul” (Leviticus 17:11.)
Redemption Through the Blood of Christ – The Infinitely Superior Blood of Jesus Christ the Lamb of God
Hebrews 9:11-16
“11 But Christ being come an high priest of good things to come, by a greater and more perfect tabernacle, not made with hands, that is to say, not of this building;
12 Neither by the blood of goats and calves, but by his own blood he entered in once into the holy place, having obtained eternal redemption for us.
13 For if the blood of bulls and of goats, and the ashes of an heifer sprinkling the unclean, sanctifieth to the purifying of the flesh:
14 How much more shall the blood of Christ, who through the eternal Spirit offered himself without spot to God, purge your conscience from dead works to serve the living God?
15 And for this cause (because He shed His perfect blood) he is the mediator of the new testament, that by means of death, for the redemption of the transgressions that were under the first testament, they which are called might receive the promise of eternal inheritance.
16 For where a testament is, there must also of necessity be the death of the testator.
To a Blood Denying Heretic, the Following Reply was Given:
You are dismissing the prophetic Messianic blood sacrifice which was to come, an essential link in the scarlet thread of blood redemption which began in Genesis 3:15 after the fall of man. This all culminated in the blood sacrifice of Jesus Christ on the altar of His cross.
“For the life of the flesh is in the BLOOD: and I have given it to you upon the altar to make an atonement for your souls: for it is the BLOOD that maketh an atonement for the soul.” Leviticus 17:11
Believer’s Bible Commentary on Leviticus 17:11:
“The eating of blood was likewise forbidden. The blood was for atonement, not for nourishment. ‘The life of the flesh is in the blood‘ (v. 11). The principle behind atonement is life for life. Since the wages of sin is death, symbolized by the shedding of blood, so ‘without the shedding of blood is no remission.’ Forgiveness does not come because the penalty of sin is excused, but because it is transferred to a sacrifice whose life blood is poured out. Verse 11 is one of the key verses in Leviticus and should be memorized.”
Re-deemed, being bought back by the life blood of GOD results in being liberated. You are seeking to diminish aught from the whole counsel of His Word.
“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; 19 But with the precious BLOOD of Christ, as of a lamb without blemish and without spot:” 1 Peter 1:18-19
“Redeemed”
λυτρόω
lutroō
loo-tro’-o
From G3083; to ransom (literally or figuratively): – redeem.
I want to exhort you to turn away from this course you are on for it is a damning denial of the lifeblood of the Lamb of God.
Adam Clarke writes:
“Leviticus 17:11
For the life of the flesh is in the blood – This sentence, which contains a most important truth, had existed in the Mosaic writings for 3600 years before the attention of any philosopher was drawn to the subject. This is the more surprising, as the nations in which philosophy flourished were those which especially enjoyed the Divine oracles in their respective languages. That the blood actually possesses a living principle, and that the life of the whole body is derived from it, is a doctrine of Divine revelation, and a doctrine which the observations and experiments of the most accurate anatomists have served strongly to confirm. The proper circulation of this important fluid through the whole human system was first taught by Solomon in figurative language, Eccl. 12:6; and discovered, as it is called, and demonstrated, by Dr. Harvey in 1628; though some Italian philosophers had the same notion a little before. This accurate anatomist was the first who fully revived the Mosaic notion of the vitality of the blood; which notion was afterward adopted by the justly celebrated Dr. John Hunter, professor of anatomy in London, and fully established by him by a great variety of strong reasoning and accurate experiments. To support this opinion Dr. Hunter proves: –
1. That the blood unites living parts in some circumstances as certainly as the yet recent juices of the branch of one tree unite with that of another; and he thinks that if either of these fluids were dead matter, they would act as stimuli, and no union would take place in the animal or vegetable kingdom; and he shows that in the nature of things there is not a more intimate connection between life and a solid than between life and a fluid.
2. He shows that the blood becomes vascular, like other living parts of the body; and he demonstrated this by a preparation in which vessels were clearly seen to arise from what had been a coagulum of blood; for those vessels opened into the stream of the circulating blood, which was in contiguity with this coagulated mass.
3. He proves that if blood be taken from the arm in the most intense cold that the human body can suffer, it will raise the thermometer to the same height as blood taken in the most sultry heat. This is a very powerful argument for the vitality of the blood, as it is well known that living bodies alone have the power of resisting great degrees of heat and cold, and of maintaining in almost every situation while in health that temperature which we distinguish by the name of animal heat.
4. He proves that blood is capable of being acted upon by a stimulus, as it coagulates on exposure to the air, as certainly as the cavities of the abdomen and thorax become inflamed from the same cause. The more the blood is alive, i. e., the more the animal is in health, the sooner the blood coagulates on exposure; and the more it has lost of the living principle, as in cases of violent inflammation, the less sensible it is to the stimulus produced by being exposed, and coagulates more slowly.
5. He proves that the blood preserves life in different parts of the body. When the nerves going to any part are tied or cut, the part becomes paralytic, and loses all power of motion, but it does not mortify. But let the artery be cut, and then the part dies and mortification ensues. It must therefore be the vital principle of the blood that keeps the part alive; nor does it appear that this fact can be accounted for on any other principle.
6. He thinks this vitality farther proved from the case of a person who was brought to St. George’s hospital for a simple fracture of the os humeri, and who died about a month after. As the bones had not united, he injected the arm, and thus found that the coagulated blood which filled the cavity between the extremities of the fractured bones was become vascular, and in some places very much so, which vessels, had it been dead matter, it never could have produced.
This system has been opposed, and arguments have been adduced to prove that the principle of vitality exists not in the blood but in the nervous system. But every argument on this ground appears to be done away by the simple consideration that the whole nervous system, as well as every other part of the body, is originally derived from the blood; for is it not from the blood of the mother that the fetus has its being and nourishment in the womb? Do not all the nerves, as well as the brain, etc., originate from that alone? And if it be not vital can it give the principle of vitality to something else, which then exclusively (though the effect of a cause) becomes the principle of vitality to all the solids and fluids of the body? This seems absurd. That the human being proceeded originally from the blood admits of no doubt; and it is natural and reasonable to suppose that as it was the cause under God which generated all the other parts of the body, so it still continues to be the principle of life, and by it alone all the wastes of the system are repaired. Two points relative to this subject are strongly asserted in Divine revelation, one by Moses, the other by St. Paul.
1. Moses says, The Life of the flesh is in the Blood, Lev_17:11. This has been proved by the most indisputable facts.
2. St. Paul says, God hath made of One Blood all nations of men, Act_17:26. And this is demonstrated, not only from there being only one pair from whom all the nations of men have been derived, but also from the fact that every human being, from the first-born of Eve to the present hour, has been formed out of and supported by the mother’s blood; and that from the agency of this fluid the human body, after being born into the world, has its increment and support.
The reason given by God for the law against eating blood is perfectly conclusive: I will set my face against that soul that eateth blood – for the Life (נפש nephesh) of the flesh is in the Blood, and I have given it to you upon the altar, to make an atonement for your souls (נפשתיכם naphshotheychem, your Lives): for it is the blood (because it is the Life, נפש nephesh) that maketh an atonement for the soul (בנפש bannephesh, for the life; for the word is the same in all these cases). By transgression a man forfeits his Life to Divine justice, and he must die, did not mercy provide him a substitute. The life of a beast is appointed and accepted by God as a substitute for the sinner’s life (in reference to the life of Christ, which was to be given for the life of the world); but as this life is in the Blood, and as the blood is the grand principle of vitality, therefore the blood is to be poured out upon the altar: and thus the life of the beast becomes a substitute for the life of the man.
And it is well worthy of being remarked, that Christ not only died for sinners, but our redemption is everywhere attributed to his Blood, and the shedding of that blood; and that on the altar of the cross, this might make an atonement for the lives and souls of men, he not only bowed his head, and gave up the ghost, but his side was opened, the pericardium and the heart evidently pierced, that the vital fluid might be poured out from the very seat of life, and that thus the blood, which is the life, should be poured out to make an atonement for the life of the soul. The doctrine of Moses and Paul proves the truth of the doctrine of Harvey and Hunter; and the reasonings and experiments of Harvey and Hunter illustrate and confirm the doctrine of Moses and Paul – Here then is a farther proof of the truth and authority of Divine revelation. See Clarke’s note on Gen_9:4; Dr. J. Corrie’s Essay on the Vitality of the Blood; and the article Blood, in the Encyclopaedias.”
Sister Karen Cochran testifies:
“Apart from the blood of Jesus Christ I was doomed and separated from Him.
Hebrews 9:28 My debt is paid once and for all.
Romans 5:9 I am justified.
Ephesians 1:7 I am forgiven
Romans 5:9 I am spared from the wrath of God
John 6:53 I am spiritually made alive.
Isaiah 53: 5 I am healed
1 John 1:7 I am cleansed.”
Kevin George said:
“A literal ransom and redemption payment results in absurdities if carefully thought through.”
REPLY:
You are an antichrist. God’s Word says that Jesus came and “gave himself a RANSOM for all”
“Even as the Son of man came not to be ministered unto, but to minister, and to give his life a RANSOM for many.” Matthew 20:28
“For even the Son of man came not to be ministered unto, but to minister, and to give his life a RANSOM for many.” Mark 10:45
“Who gave himself a RANSOM (redemption price) for all, to be testified in due time.” 1 Timothy 2:6
To “ransom” would mean to buy back. By His very divine life blood, shed on the altar of His cross, Jesus bought back His own from the sin that separated them from He who is “Holy, holy, holy” (Isaiah 6:3; Revelation 4:8).

Blood Conversation with a man who is blasphemously denying the power and life of the Blood of Jesus…..
Notice you don’t speak of being WASHED by the “precious blood“ of Jesus but only “KEPT from sin” …. no man can be kept from sin until he is first washed in the “PRECIOUS BLOOD“ of Christ.
“And from Jesus Christ, who is the faithful witness, and the first begotten of the dead, and the prince of the kings of the earth. Unto him that loved us, and WASHED US FROM OUR SINS IN HIS OWN BLOOD.” Revelation 1:5
There is no life with God until Jesus remits the sins of the repentant:
“For this is my blood of the new testament, which is shed for many for the remission of sins.” Matthew 26:28
In an ongoing dialogue with a man who is denying that there is life and power in the blood of Jesus Christ, the following response was given:
“WE release”?
First off, what are your thoughts on heretic Charles Finney’s teachings? And that guy all over social media named Jesse? …. I’d like an honest answer to these 2 questions. Seems obvious you have bought an antichrist, an x-out Christ system of heresy.
You said: “This passage (1 Peter 1:18-19) is not about being bought from anyone, it is about being freed from the bondage of sin. To remit (Greek aphesis) is to release. What do we release? We release our bondage to sin when we become loyal to the blood covenant of Christ.”
“WE” don’t release anything until after Jesus finds and saves us. Did you find Jesus or did He find you? See 1 John 4:9-10, 19. Was He lost or were you lost? Read Luke 15. Jesus releases the truly saved child of God from sin and its penalty and power exclusively by His “precious blood“ (Romans 6:14, etc.). Such a declaration that you made is an antichrist statement and nothing less. You are not upholding Christ but rather seem to be denigrating Him and enthroning sinful man (Colossians 2:18-19).
Here’s the danger you are in:
“Of how much sorer (more severe) punishment, suppose ye, shall he be thought worthy, who hath trodden under foot the Son of God, and hath counted the blood of the covenant, wherewith he was sanctified, an unholy thing, and hath done despite unto the Spirit of grace?” Hebrews 10:29
Peter writes: “ye were not redeemed … But with the precious blood of Christ.” … and it’s only by the divine redeeming life blood that anything else can happen as fruit that comes exclusively by the “precious blood of Christ.” A blood-less gospel is “another gospel,” a false and damning gospel.
1 Peter 1:18-23
18 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;
19 But with the precious blood of Christ, as of a lamb without blemish and without spot:
20 Who verily was foreordained before the foundation of the world, but was manifest in these last times for you,
21 Who by him do believe in God, that raised him up from the dead, and gave him glory; that your faith and hope might be in God.
22 Seeing ye have purified your souls in obeying the truth through the Spirit unto unfeigned love of the brethren, see that ye love one another with a pure heart fervently:
23 Being born again, not of corruptible seed, but of incorruptible, by the word of God, which liveth and abideth for ever.
DIALOGUE WITH A MAN WHO IS DENYING THAT THERE IS POWER OR LIFE IN THE BLOOD OF JESUS
You didn’t “think through” this heretical system of denying Christ and His very and “precious blood“ till you foolishly began reading the writings of a child of Satan. Please be honest and inform me of where you got these ideas, the idea that there is no special power in the blood of Jesus. I am expecting an answer, the name(s) of those you read or listened to who have this injected into your mind.
You give feigned admiration to the life that is in Christ’s “precious blood.”
You wrote:
“The blood of Christ is mighty precious because it is the basis of our covenant with Christ and our loyalty to him. In contrast, if blood is reduced to a mere substance for bartering with God, then it cheapens both the blood and the holiness of God. But I realize that most people have not thought through these implications.

‘Keep yourself far from a false matter; do not kill the innocent and righteous. For I will not justify the wicked.’ Ex. 23:7″
REPLY:
Nothing, even these misused Scriptures does anything to diminish what the LORD informed us of concerning the “precious BLOOD” of Jesus.
You unthinkably stated that: “If blood is reduced to a mere substance for bartering with God, then it cheapens both the blood and the holiness of God.”
So, you have reduced, diminished aught from the very BLOOD of Jesus to just any blood (Deuteronomy 4:2). There it is – “that spirit of antichrist” true disciples are commanded to “beware of” (1 John 4:1-3). This is the only spirit that could possibly be behind this delusion, this attack on Jesus Christ (Philippians 3:18-19). How does exclaiming from SCRIPTURE, from GOD Himself what He has revealed about His “precious blood“ reduce or cheapen anything? You are guilty of what you accuse others of (Romans 2:1-3).
Your system of diabolically corrupting the blood of Christ is pure human and demonic reasoning. You are spreading a “doctrine of devils” (1 Timothy 4:1-2).
PRAYER: God, I want to know You. I come to You now as a sinner, calling upon the LORD Jesus to forgive me, to save me into Your eternal kingdom, to wash all my sins away in Your precious blood. I love You Jesus and thank You for coming to the earth to provide something no one else ever could – Your blood sacrifice on that cross where You died for my sins and the sins of the whole world before You were buried and raised again from the dead 3 days later. I love You LORD Jesus and will follow You from this moment forward and to the end of my life. Thank You for washing me clean of all my sins and of all the guilt, shame, and darkness those sins brought. Thank You for bringing me into Your eternal family by Your precious blood and filling me with Your Holy Spirit. Please use me LORD Jesus. In Jesus’ name, amen.
