Summary of the book:

The blood of Christ links the New Testament with the Old Testament. God ordained animal sacrifices in Israel to foreshadow the saving work of the promised Messiah.

For hundreds of years, The innocent animal symbolically bore the guilt of the sinner. When Christ came as the reality, The promise was fulfilled. He became “ The Lamb of God who takes away the sin of the world.”

For some the blood of Christ has been associated with a lifetime of emotional experiences. They have grown up with the idea that there was a special power in the red liquid that circulated through Jesus’ mortal body. This mysticism is not biblical! The “blood of Christ“ is a metaphor for His spiritual death in which He received in the judgment that removed the penalty of sin.

本文摘要:

基督的血把新約和舊約聯繫在一起。神下令動物祭在以色列之中來預示應許的彌賽亞救贖的工作。

幾百年以來，無辜的動物像徵性地承受罪人的過失。當基督以現實來到，應許實現了。祂成為 “神的羔羊除去世人的罪。”

基督的血對一些人來說是與他們一生的情感體驗有關。他們自幼有這樣的想法，循環在耶穌凡人體內的紅色液體有著一種特殊的力量。這種神秘感是不乎合聖經的！“基督的血” 是祂在靈性上死亡的隱喻，祂接受判決，消除了罪的懲罰。
