Are You "Right" but Not "Real?"
How To Love the Brethren
Part IV
Even More on How to Love Our Fellow Brethren/Brethrenettes?
Answer: We look at them like God looks at them!

Do ye look on things after the outward appearance?
If any man trust to himself that he is Christ's, let him of himself think this again,
that, as he is Christ's, even so are we Christ's.
II Corinthians 10:7

How Was Christ Able to Make Us What He Did?
(see parts I - III for what He made us)
By His Blood!
Rightly Dividing the Blood of Christ


Old Testament
See Hebrews 9:1-22

Gospels
Not even shed yet, but He said what the Blood would do!
Matthew 26:28; Mark 14:24; Luke 22:20
John 6:54-56 - horribly misunderstood by folks today  - they ignore 6:63!

Today
He sacrificed His own blood!
Parents sacrifice for their children
    Mom's - child birth - pain, etc. be their 'mother' AT HOME, no daycare, public government school, etc.
    Dad's - raise those critters / pay for their training, education, etc.
Parents today have little desire to sacrifice for their children - and it shows!

His own blood!
Acts 20:28 - Take heed therefore unto yourselves, and to all the flock, over the which the Holy Ghost hath made you overseers, to feed the church of God, which he hath purchased with his own blood.

Faith IN his blood!
Romans 3:25 - Whom God hath set forth to be a propitiation through faith in his blood, to declare his righteousness for the remission of sins that are past, through the forbearance of God;

Justified by his blood!
Romans 5:9 - Much more then, being now justified by his blood, we shall be saved from wrath through him.

Redemption through his blood!
Ephesians 1:7 - In whom we have redemption through his blood, the forgiveness of sins, according to the riches of his grace;
Colossians 1:14 - In whom we have redemption through his blood, even the forgiveness of sins:

Made nigh
Ephesians 2:13 - But now in Christ Jesus ye who sometimes were far off are made nigh by the blood of Christ.

Made peace
Colossians 1:20 - And, having made peace through the blood of his cross, by him to reconcile all things unto himself; by him, I say, whether they be things in earth, or things in heaven.


Tribulation
I Peter 1:19 - But with the precious blood of Christ, as of a lamb without blemish and without spot:
I John 1:7 - But if we walk in the light, as he is in the light, we have fellowship one with another, and the blood of Jesus Christ his Son cleanseth us from all sin.
Revelation 7:14 - And I said unto him, Sir, thou knowest. And he said to me, These are they which came out of great tribulation, and have washed their robes, and made them white in the blood of the Lamb.
Revelation 12:11 - And they overcame him by the blood of the Lamb, and by the word of their testimony; and they loved not their lives unto the death.

Christ gets the final say!
Revelation 19:2 - For true and righteous are his judgments: for he hath judged the great whore, which did corrupt the earth with her fornication, and hath avenged the blood of his servants at her hand.
Revelation 19:13 - And he was clothed with a vesture dipped in blood: and his name is called The Word of God.

The Lord gave His life for us!
He shed His blood for us!
He gave us His word on it!

PS - Help at some personal application:
Parents, can't you give yourselves "somewhat" for your kids these days?
Husbands / wifes, can't you give yourselves at least "somewhat" for your spouse these days?
Kids, can't you give yourselves 'somewhat" for your brothers and sisters - and your parents - grandparents, and even your teachers, etc.?
