The Final Sacrifice Outside the City Walls

 “And the winepress was trodden without the city, and blood came out of the winepress, even unto the horse bridles, by the space of a thousand and six hundred furlongs.”

‭‭Revelation‬ ‭14‬:‭20‬ ‭KJV‬‬

And the winepress was trodden outside the city, and the blood that flowed out of the winepress was as deep as a horse’s bridle and it flooded a thousand stadia.  Wherefore Jesus also, that He might sanctify the people with His own Blood, suffered without the gate.  Jesus is the final sacrifice and was slain outside the city walls.  The symbolic depth of a horse’s bridle and a thousand stadia speak of the completeness and universality of the world-wide impact of the Blood Covenant of Jesus.  The horror of the Cross is now the eternal trophy of God’s triumph over sin!  God’s brilliant triumph demonstrated in Christ forever!  Glory to God!
