The Blood of Jesus
The Word said that under the New Covenant we have a better covenant established upon better promises
(Heb. 8:6).
The blood of Jesus Christ doesn’t cover our sins; it cleanses us from our sins.
The last part of Rev. 1:5 says, “. . . Unto him that loved us, and WASHED us from our sins in his own blood.”
First John 1:9, which says, “If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just to forgive us our sins, and to CLEANSE us from all unrighteousness.”
The Bible isn’t talking to sinners here, it is talking to believers. We become the righteousness of God in Christ when we are born again. If we sin since becoming a new creature in Christ, and we do, we simply confess our sins, and God would forgive us of our sins and cleanse us from all unrighteousness. And when we are cleansed from unrighteousness, then we are in fellowship with God again.
We have a standing at the throne of God, and it is just as good a standing as Jesus Himself, for Jesus is my right standing. 2 CORINTHIANS 5:21 21 For he hath made him to be sin for us, who knew no sin; that we might be made THE RIGHTEOUSNESS OF GOD IN HIM. Amen
