"Through the Blood of His Cross"


"For it pleased the Father that in him should all fullness dwell;
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 on earth, or things in heaven."
(Col.1:19-20)

"The chief aim of the enemy's assaults is to get rid of Christ, to get rid of the atonement, to get rid of his suffering in the place of men. Some say they can embrace the rest of the gospel. But what "rest" is there? What is there left? A bloodless, Christless gospel is fit neither for the land nor for the dunghill. It neither honors God nor converts men." (C.H. Spurgeon)

Amen. If we do not have Christ and His blood we have nothing at all.
