Isaiah 1:18 Come now, and let us reason together, saith the LORD: though your sins be as scarlet, they shall be as white as snow; though they be red like crimson, they shall be as wool.
God is giving everyone a chance to repent and to make things right with Him. He has even gone as far as coming to this earth born as a little defenseless baby to live as we live and to experience death as we do. He healed thousands and fed thousands he also raised people from the dead.
He let himself be found guilty of religious laws and was killed by one of the most terrible ways to die. He was stripped of his clothes beaten and spat upon and finally hung on a cross mocked and scorned. He gave up His life so that we would have life eternally.
Isaiah 53:5 But he was wounded for our transgressions, he was bruised for our iniquities: the chastisement of our peace was upon him; and with his stripes we are healed.
There is a remedy for your sickness and there is a remedy for your pain. There is a remedy for your addictions and there is a remedy brain. There is a remedy for whatever condition you’re facing today but there can be no help for you if you’re not willing to realize the state and condition that you’re in and that you’re standing with God is guilty.
Romans 3:23 For all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God;
God is holy He is intolerant to sin. He does not compromise the standards of His will so that we can do what we want to make ourselves happy. Sin is sin in the eyes of God and there must be a payment for sin because the Lord requires it. The only payment that can be paid for sin is blood, it is what the Lord requires.
Leviticus 17:11 For the life of the flesh is in the blood: and I have given it to you upon the altar to make an atonement for your souls: for it is the blood that maketh an atonement for the soul. There is life in the blood.
The sinner deserved to die; therefore the sacrifice must die. Now, the blood being so the life that ordinarily beasts were killed for man’s use by the drawing out of all their blood, God appointed the sprinkling or pouring out of the blood of the sacrifice upon the altar to signify that the life of the sacrifice was given to God instead of the sinner’s life, and as a ransom or counter-price for it; therefore without the shedding of blood there was no remission for sins commited.
Romans 6:23 For the wages of sin is death; but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord.
Here’s the ultimate that you must understand. The blood of animals is not enough to appease the Lord of the universe. God is just and holy and He must be justified and true. He commands righteousness! Not compromise as mankind does today! We are liar’s murderers and adulterers at heart and we our driven by our sin nature that is within us when we choose right over wrong.
Galatians 5:17 For the flesh lusteth against the Spirit, and the Spirit against the flesh: and these are contrary the one to the other: so that ye cannot do the things that ye would.
We have in us things that are not right morally and that’s why we sin and do the things that we know are wrong.
Romans 5:8 But God commendeth his love toward us, in that, while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us.
God the creator of all things created us to worship Him and to fellowship with Him in His Kingdom but we gave in to temptation and gave the enemy a right to afflict us with his temptations and adversities. The Lord was not taken by surprise when sin was chosen and mankind fell under the bondage of sin. He had and has a plan to reconcile mankind back to himself.
