What is the significance of the blood of Jesus in our fellowship?

The blood of Jesus holds immense significance for believers as it cleanses us from all sin, which is critical for true fellowship with God. According to 1 John 1:7, 'the blood of Jesus Christ, his Son, cleanseth us from all sin.' This cleansing work is what allows us to walk in the light and maintain fellowship not only with God but also with our fellow believers. Without this blood atonement, there would be no means of reconciliation or unity with God. It is through acknowledging our dependence on Jesus’ sacrifice that we find assurance in our fellowship and the joy that accompanies it.
