March 17, 2006 There When You Need It Read: Hebrews 9:11-22 The blood of Jesus Christ His Son cleanses us from all sin. —1 John 1:7 Bible In One Year: Deuteronomy 30-31; Mark 15:1-25 When I donated blood some time ago, a nurse gave me a card to read while a pint of the vital red fluid was flowing out of my vein. The card showed the percentages of people who have different blood types. Here are some of them: O-Positive   37.4% A-Positive   35.7% A-Negative   6.3% B-Negative   1.5% The rarest, AB-Negative, is found in only 1 in 167 people, or 0.6% of the population. Then the card made this eye-catching statement: "The rarest blood type is the one that's not there when you need it." There is another supply of blood that is one of a kind and always available to those who ask for it. First John 1:7 states, "The blood of Jesus Christ His Son cleanses us from all sin." It was the death of Christ—the shedding of His blood— that satisfied the demand of a holy God as payment for our sins (Hebrews 9:12,22). So now, whenever a person cries out in faith to God, repenting of his sin and pleading for forgiveness, his prayer for salvation is answered. I am deeply grateful that Jesus was willing to die on the cross, giving His blood for me, so that forgiveness was available when I needed it. Aren't you? —Dave Egner Sufficient is the blood of Christ To cleanse us from all sin, But daily we must claim its power To keep us pure within. —D. De Haan Jesus takes our sin and gives us His salvation. Jumat, 17 Maret ADA SAAT DIBUTUHKAN Darah Yesus, Anak-Nya itu, menyucikan kita dari segala dosa (1 Yohanes 1:7) Bacaan: Ibrani 9:11-22 Setahun: Ulangan 30-31; Markus 15:1-25 Ketika saya melakukan donor darah beberapa waktu yang lalu, seorang perawat memberikan kepada saya secarik kartu saat darah sedang mengalir dari pembuluh vena saya. Kartu tersebut menunjukkan persentase jumlah orang dengan golongan darah yang berbeda-beda sebagai berikut. O-Positif          37,4 % A-Positif          35,7 % A-Negatif         6,3 % B-Negatif         1,5 % Golongan darah yang paling langka, yaitu golongan darah AB-Negatif, hanya ditemukan pada satu dari 167 orang, atau 0,6 % dari jumlah penduduk. Dan pada kartu tersebut tertulis pernyataan yang mencolok mata: “Golongan darah yang paling langka adalah golongan yang tidak ada pada saat sedang dibutuhkan”. Akan tetapi, ada sebuah golongan darah yang senantiasa tersedia bagi orang yang membutuhkannya. Perikop 1 Yohanes 1:7 mengatakan, “Darah Yesus, Anak-Nya itu, menyucikan kita dari segala dosa.” Kematian Kristus—pencurahan darah-Nya—telah menggenapkan tuntutan Allah yang kudus sebagai pembayaran atas dosa-dosa kita (Ibrani 9:12,22). Jadi sekarang, setiap kali seseorang memohon dalam iman kepada Allah, bertobat dari dosa dan memohon pengampunan, maka ia akan diselamatkan. Saya sungguh-sungguh bersyukur karena Yesus rela mati di kayu salib, mencurahkan darah-Nya bagi saya, sehingga pengampunan tersedia saat saya memerlukannya. Apakah Anda juga mengucapkan syukur atas hal itu? —DCE       ================================================ Sampai disini Tuhan menolong kita (1 Sam 7:12) ================================================ SPONSORED LINKS Gpib Gpib card Gpib interface Religion Gpib board Christianity YAHOO!
