What does the Bible say about the shedding of blood for remission of sins?

Answered in 3 sources

The Bible states in Hebrews 9:22 that without the shedding of blood, there is no remission of sins.

Hebrews 9:22 explicitly declares, 'Without the shedding of blood, there is no remission of sins.' This verse highlights the necessity of sacrificial blood for the forgiveness of sins, pointing to Christ's atoning work. Just as the Old Testament sacrifices pointed forward to the ultimate sacrifice of Jesus, His bloodshed on the cross is essential for our sins to be remitted. God’s justice requires that sin must be atoned for, and it is only through His Son’s sacrificial death that we can be forgiven and restored to a right relationship with God.
