Gen 9:4,6, BUT YOU SHALL NOT EAT FLESH WITH ITS LIFE, THAT IS, ITS BLOOD. Surely for your lifeblood I will demand a reckoning;… “WHOEVER SHEDS MAN’S BLOOD, BY MAN HIS BLOOD SHALL BE SHED; FOR IN THE IMAGE OF GOD HE MADE MAN.
When one man kills another, they are killing the image of the Creator of heaven and earth! Live by the sword & die by the sword! Jesus said,
Mat 26:52, … for all who take the sword will perish by the sword.
Lev 17:11, FOR THE LIFE OF THE FLESH IS IN THE BLOOD, and I have given it to you upon the altar to make atonement for your souls; FOR IT IS THE BLOOD THAT MAKES ATONEMENT FOR THE SOUL.’
Yet, true life is found in the blood of JESUS. For we were not redeemed with corruptible things like silver or gold, but with the PRECIOUS BLOOD OF CHRIST, AS A LAMB WITHOUT BLEMISH AND WITHOUT SPOT! 1Peter1:18-19
Jesus used HIS own blood to cover our sins, He bought us with HIS blood (acts 20:28), He made peace through HIS blood that was shed on the cross! WITHOUT THE SHEDDING OF BLOOD (HIS BLOOD) THERE IS NO FORGIVENESS OF SIN!
