|The blood was a “TOKEN.” “When I see the BLOOD, I will pass over you.” Ex. 12:13. It is not a question of “'''personal worthiness''',” nor of “'''good works''',” nor of “morality,” but of the BLOOD. “It is the BLOOD that maketh an atonement for the soul.” Lev. 17:11. The Israelites were not merely in a salvable state, they were SAVED, not partly but completely. If a hair of one of the “First Born” sheltered behind the blood had been touched, it would have proved Jehovah’s word void, and the blood of the lamb valueless. We may have no assurance as to our salvation, but '''have we applied the “Blood of Christ” to our soul''', are we trusting to it, and it alone, for our salvation? If so, '''all that is necessary is, that GOD sees it'''. | |'''The blood was a “TOKEN.”''' “When I see the BLOOD, I will pass over you.” Ex. 12:13.
