source The wonderful plan of redemption was made from the beginning. God willed and desired the salvation of man from the time the first man and woman disobeyed God in the garden of Eden. God made man higher than all other creatures of his hand, giving him dominion over all things He created. Man was created in God's own image, after His own likeness "And God said, let us make man in our own image, after our own likeness" (Genesis 1:26). The perfect, holy,sinless,merciful and righteous God imparted His nature into man. Adam and Eve were in that perfect state before they yielded to temptation and disobeyed God on what He commanded them not to do.

source From that time God promised the world a saviour. "And i will put enmity between thee and the woman and between thy seed and her seed and her seed; it shall bruise thy head and thou shalt bruise his heel" (Genesis 3:15). Here we have the first prophecy that Jesus would come to this world to redeem mankind and defeat our enemy. In Matthew 26:28. Jesus said " For this is my blood of the New Testament which is shed for many for the remission(removal) of sin. " The lord said again that " therefore the Lord Himself shall give you a sign;Behold, a virgin shall conceive, and bear a Son, and shall call his name JESUS: for He shall save his people from their sins" (Matthew 1:21). Jesus came for a purpose , and that is to save man from sin. Why was it necessary?

source Sin brings death. " The soul that sinneth, it shall die" (Ezekiel 18:4). This is spiritual separation from God but because of the love of God, He gave Jesus as a substitute who had to die in our stead to save us from our sins.
We are told in the word of God that "the life of the flesh is in the BLOOD: and I (JESUS) have given it to you upon the altar, (Calvary) to make atonement for your souls; for it is the BLOOD that maketh atonement for the soul" (leviticus 17:11). Many today bring the good work of their hands to atone for their sin (like Cain) and others shed the blood of animals to redeem them from their sins. The Bible says a man is not justified by the works of his hands( Galatians 2:16). Justification is not by the giving of tithes, or by giving money to beggars and to the motherless, neither is it by fasting. But all things were by the law purged by the blood; yet you cannot be purged by the blood of animals. " For is is not possible that the blood of bulls and goats should take away sins" (Hebrew 10:4). "Neither by the blood of goats and calves, but by His OWN BLOOD, HE entered in once into the holy place, HAVING OBTAINED ETERNAL REDEMPTION FOR US" (Hebrews 9:12). "And without shedding of BLOOD (Blood of JESUS) is no remission ( Hebrews 9:22). No labour of our hands can atone for sin. ONLY THE BLOOD OF JESUS..jpg)

In Ephesians 1:7, the Bible says, " in whom we have redemption, the forgiveness of sins according to the riches of His grace". The grace of God is an undeserved favour and it is for every body. You need to know the importance of the blood in your own life. It is possible for you to know that the Blood of Jesus washed whiter than snow, while you are yet deep in fornication,drinking of alcohol, gossiping,quarelling and keeping of malice. I want you to know that the BLOOD OF JESUS has been shed for every individual. If you believe now, you will receive the forgiveness of your sins freely. You need to be redeemed from the condemnation of your sins now. "Repent ye therefore and be converted that your sins may be blotted out" (Acts 3:19). "And having made peace through the blood of his cross, by Him to reconcile all things unto Himself," He was slain for every body, not for a particular race. For the bible says that " Jesus was slain and has redeemed us to God by His BLOOD OUT OF EVERY TONGUE, EVERY PEOPLE AND EVERY NATION(Revelation 5:9). It is for you also.

Do you hope for a rest after your toil,trials and suffering in this world? Then look up unto Jesus. Your sins must be washed if you want get to heaven, you need to be made a new creature, having the life and nature of God in you and be an overcomer all the days of your life. "And they overcame him (Satan) by the BLOOD OF THE LAMB (JESUS).(Revelation 12:11). The great price of redemption - the BLOOD OF JESUS - had been paid. It is for you to accept it, for Jesus said, " IT IS FINISHED". What is finished? God's work of salvation for your soul, deliverance from sin and all the works of the devil. Now pray and tell JESUS about all your sins and allow His blood to wash you clean and to make His work of redemption real in your life. Confess and forsake all your sins asking and believing God for pardon and the BLOOD OF JESUS will wash you whiter than snow..jpg)[source](https://www.google.com.ng/search?q=Blood+of+Jesus+will+wash+you+whiter+than+snow&client=ms-android-tecno&prmd=vin&source=lnms&tbm=isch&sa=X&ved=0ahUKEwiAn-z7yorbAhVKAsAKHWyXAgwQ_AUICygC&biw=320&bih=490#imgrc=4GMuAZuj0HiEuM:).
