True Atonement

 June 5, 2025

Verse of the day - Hebrews 9:24 (NRSV)

For Christ did not enter a sanctuary made by human hands, a mere copy of the true one, but he entered into heaven itself, now to appear in the presence of God on our behalf.

In chapter 3 of my third book, Jesus speaks about the sacrifice He made.

Excerpt from Come To The Cross

Before I came to this earth and died for the sins of the world, I required My followers to sacrifice bulls and goats.  Through this offering, atonement was made for the sins of mankind.  Only by My sacrifice on the cross, was true atonement for sins made.  I died once and rose again on the third day for the sake of mankind.

Several centuries ago, before Jesus walked on this earth, sacrifices were made.  It was thought that everyone was cleansed from their sins through the blood of bulls and goats.  This was not the case.  To be cleansed from sin, a lamb without blemish needed to be slain.  Jesus was the Spotless Lamb of God.  God sent His only begotten Son, Jesus, to this earth to be sacrificed on the cross for the sins of the world.  Through the crucifixion on the cross, Jesus shed His Blood for all generations.  All who come to believe in the Precious Name of Jesus, shall be saved at the end of time.
