The only blood that can remove the stain of sin from our souls is the blood of the Lamb of God slain for the redemption of many. With heaven and earth watching, Emmanuel bled His life away. From His head, His hands, His feet, His brow, and His side, His blood poured out for each one of us.

Only His blood bought our forgiveness, our hope, our future, and everlasting life.
