As Christians we
know, or should know, that the only acceptable sacrifice for our sin,
was a blood offering. This is the way Father designed, and required
that a plan of redemption, could take place. I have often battled
with the idea of, couldn't He have made it different, or easier? Why
the idea of blood? You know,.....That seems to be kind of a gross
way to be acting....Why the blood?
Since we were born
into sin, our blood was not even fit, for any sacrifice. It had to be
pure, sinless blood. Father is not a half-stepper, on anything that
He does. He is perfection, at it's finest, and He demands perfection,
in a sacrifice. Father is Holy, in every form of the word. I can't
ever stress how perfect, and Holy, and Wonderful, that Father really
is!!
His love for us is
so enduring, unlike any form of love, that we have ever experienced,
outside of His realm. All that He really wants is for us to love Him,
and have a relationship with Him. Father gets great joy every time
that we come to Him. It doesn't matter if it's to praise Him, or ask
something of Him. Father wants us to realize who He really is, and
allow Him the privilege, of being our Father!!
Time, and time,
after time, in the Word of God, Father is relaying that message to
His children. That is why He created us. We were created to worship
Father, and because we do worship Him; He steps in His rightful place
as our Father!! We will never be able to out give Father. When we
offer a sacrifice to Him, whether it be praise, or a song, or a
prayer, or any other small sacrifice. Father takes note of our
actions towards Himself, and rewards us in the way that He chooses.
All that we are
required to do, in this relationship, is put Father first, in all we do.
The times haven't changed all that much. Father has not changed at
all!! We are to stay as little children, in our relationship with
Father. We are to stay dependent on Him. We are to offer Him our
absolute best, as children offer their best to their parents.
Have you ever saw
a child, take a picture that they have drawn to their mother. It
might not be anything that mom can recognize, as being anything, that
she has ever saw before. The child is simply thrilled to pass this
work of art, on to the mother. Most of the time mother picks the
child up, and places them on her lap. They talk about what the
picture is, while sharing their love for each other. They hug, and
kiss, and tell each other how great that they are, as their bond has
grown a little closer!!
Do you have any
idea, where that love that a mother has for her child came from?
Father put that type of love in the mother, when she herself, was a
little girl. You should know that, if a mother, can love her babies,
in that kind of way, then Father loves us so much more!! That is why
He sent Jesus.
Jesus Christ, the
only begotten Son of the Father, was sent as the perfect sacrifice,
for our sins. Father sent us the best that He possessed. There was no
other option, beside wiping all creation out, and starting fresh once
again. Don't you realize ,why this was not a valid option, to Father,
at the time? We were not strangers, in the beginning. Father knew us
before the foundation of the world. He created all this, just for His
children to learn how, to love Father!!
Do you realize
what a waste of life, it would be, not to accept the more than
gracious offer, that is before us? Father created us, and we can't
change the rules, that He provided already for us. He has even given
us the opportunity to choose between two options. They really are
simple choices,but often difficult to make, at certain times in our
lives.
Father ever told
us that the right choice, was to choose, the way of life. Some people think
that, if they choose death, then that is all that they will get. They
will simply be gone, as if they never were to begin with. There is a
slight problem with that theory. We are created to be eternal beings.
We are going to being living in some form forever, in some place.
Hell was not even
created for human beings. It was created for Satan, and the fallen
angels to occupy. Father would never send us to hell. He leaves that
choice up to us......
I will write on
what I started to write later. “Why the blood?” Something more
pressing came up instead.
…..........Much Love
