What does the Bible say about the water and blood of Christ?

In 1 John 5:6, it is stated that Christ came by water and blood. This refers to the two aspects of our salvation: the water signifies the cleansing from sin, while the blood represents the justification before God. When Christ died on the cross, both water and blood flowed from His side, fulfilling the requirements of the Law for our acceptance with God. The water signifies our sanctification and the cleansing of our sinful nature, while the blood signifies the sacrifice that satisfies God's justice and removes our guilt. Together, they demonstrate that our salvation is complete in Christ's atoning work.
