“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;”
Romans 3:25 KJV
God is satisfied in His justice, not by our trying to fix our sins or our good deeds or karma, but only through the Blood of Jesus in place of our sins. Jesus’s destiny from God was to be the Sacrifice to take away sins, and now He is our Mercy Seat because of His death on the Cross. We come to Him for mercy, for God has made a provision for us to be forgiven by faith in the sacred Blood of Jesus. This is the perfect demonstration of God’s justice, because until now, He had been so patient—holding back His justice out of His tolerance for us. So He covered over the sins of those who lived prior to Jesus’s Sacrifice. Let us therefore come boldly to the Throne of Grace, that we may obtain mercy, and find grace to help in time of need. Only by the Blood of Jesus! Hallelujah!
