How do we know the blood of Christ is significant?

Answered in 1 source

The blood of Christ is significant as it fulfills God's covenant promise, providing redemption from sin and delivering believers from condemnation.

The significance of Christ's blood is deeply rooted in the concept of atonement as established in the Old Testament sacrifices. The blood of the Passover lamb protected the Israelites from judgment—this directly parallels the protection believers receive through the blood of Christ. Hebrews 9:22 states, 'without the shedding of blood there is no forgiveness of sins,' emphasizing that the sacrificial system was established to demonstrate the cost of sin. In Revelation 1:5, it affirms that Christ 'loved us and washed us from our sins in His own blood.' This means that Christ’s sacrifice satisfies divine justice, allowing God to pass over the sins of His people while upholding His holiness. Therefore, the blood of Christ is our assurance of salvation and eternal life.
