A BLOW W7 KUCIW,? More, than one person lias turned his back on I I the Christian religv m be Z* cause, as tliey say, "it is \ /* religion of blood." The«e need be no " blinking the fact: Chris- • * tianity IS a religion of blood. From the first RUtee of the Bible to the last, the forgiveness of sms is inseparably interwoven with the shedding of blood — the blood of sacrificial animals in the Old Testament, the blood of Christ m the New. , ' —— John writes, "Ttie Maori of Jesus Christ, His Son, cieanerih us :/ ruO ! a " *•#•’’ FeSer says. “Ye were redeemed by the precious blood of Christ." Paul writes, "In Him we have redemption through His Hood.” And Christ Himself asserts, "This is My Hood which is shed for the remission of sins." It will do no gocri for the Church to preach a diluted Gospel at morality and goodness; the Gospel which Christ preached was one ot personal salvation through faith to His redeeming blood.
