1 John 1:7
But if we walk in the light as He is in the light, we have fellowship with one another, and the blood of Jesus Christ His Son cleanses us from all sin.
Are you one of those people going around feeling so unworthy to go into the presence of God? Do you have thoughts that say you cannot go into God’s presence because you have not been reading your Bible and going to church? Or sometimes you feel guilty because of the wrongs you have committed. When we become Christians we should be totally free from sin consciousness as we have moved from sin to the righteousness of God in Christ.
The devil will always make you feel condemned or disqualify you but the truth is that regardless of how you feel and what you have done, the blood of Jesus Christ cleanses us from all sin.
In Greek text, the tense for the word “cleanses” denotes a present continuous action. This means that once you are a believer, the blood of Jesus Christ keeps on cleansing you from every sin.
So you can rest knowing that you are always forgiven in this continuous wash cycle of Jesus blood. Because you are continually cleansed, you are always in the light. You may fail from time to time, but you are still in the light because the blood is continuously washing you. Sin in the simplest form would be missing the mark. (God’s law and His commands which come from his nature are the mark or standard that we aim at and miss.)
In Revelation chapter 12:11 declares that we have overcome the devil by the blood of the lamb. If you have sinned, remind yourself that Jesus’ blood is continuously cleansing you from every sin every day. Jesus Christ paid the penalty once and for all.
The eternal blood of Jesus Christ offers you eternal redemption and everlasting righteousness. Accept the payment of His blood as the final, perfect and only sacrifice you will ever need. He loves you very much
