Christ Blood For You

On that same night I will pass through Egypt and strike down every firstborn of both people and animals, and I will bring judgment on all the gods of Egypt. I am the Lord. The blood will be a sign for you on the houses where you are, and when I see the blood, I will pass over you. No destructive plague will touch you when I strike Egypt.
Exodus 12:12?-?13 NIV


In a night when all where doing 
As they please came judgement
Except those who covered their door
With lambs blood without blemish or defect
To protect their firstborn from plague
To see in this time the blood of these lambs
Separated the firstborn from within a house
To those outside the house.
Now, by the grace of Jesus poured out blood
The most pure without sin to please God
Has given us a way 
By, this blood to separate
The firstborn of Adam man of flesh
Unto birth of the divine promise 
Within these walls that only Christ
Can circumcise firstborn
That one might bring God a smile
To bring glory to His Son 
And purpose that we might know Him






Jesus answered, “Very truly I tell you, no one can enter the kingdom of God unless they are born of water and the Spirit. Flesh gives birth to flesh, but the Spirit gives birth to spirit.
John 3:5?-?6 NIV


but with the precious blood of Christ, a lamb without blemish or defect. He was chosen before the creation of the world, but was revealed in these last times for your sake.
1 Peter 1:19?-?20 NIV

His son by the slave woman was born according to the flesh, but his son by the free woman was born as the result of a divine promise.
Galatians 4:23 NIV

Stephan, I find the killing of the first born child and animal a bit brutal for a loving God to do, tell me this did not happen. And the slaughter of innocent lambs seems cruel, but its a wonderfully written piece !

We are not like Moses, who would put a veil over his face to prevent the Israelites from seeing the end of what was passing away. But their minds were made dull, for to this day the same veil remains when the old covenant is read. It has not been removed, because only in Christ is it taken away. Even to this day when Moses is read, a veil covers their hearts. But whenever anyone turns to the Lord, the veil is taken away. Now the Lord is the Spirit, and where the Spirit of the Lord is, there is freedom. 2 Corinthians 3:13?-?17 NIV Some of my favorite scriptures

Lol, that is scripture not my writing , but indeed God is loving, every story has a purpose, what about the sacrifice of His son, the beauty of it is to kill our firstborn spirit of this world, through Christ rebirth into living spirit that pleases God , flesh gives birth to flesh, spirit gives birth to spirit: ). Without God's presence surrounding I would not be writing, but the only way I have found to express His love he placed within that I just seek that another might receive

Through the blood of Christ we are all redeemed from eternal damnation as the first borns were saved from being killed by smearing the doors with the blood of lambs. When the son of God killed Himself on the cross, we are saved and by being a good Christian, we shall try to repay His great love! Well written Stephan
