With the Lord’s death the old rule under which the Israelites came to God was also put to death. No longer do we come to God through physical sacrifices and earthly priests. Now we come to God through Christ Jesus. Hebrews 9:13-14 “ For if the blood of bulls and goats and the ashes of a heifer, sprinkling the unclean, sanctifies for the purifying of the flesh, 14  how much more shall the blood of Christ, who through the eternal Spirit offered Himself without spot to God, cleanse your conscience from dead works to serve the living God?” The Lord was put to death outside of the camp ( Hebrews 13: 12  “ And so Jesus also suffered outside the city gate to make the people holy through his own blood.” ). The camp in Israel was where all these procedures and practices took place. (The only thing that wasn’t permitted within the camp was the burnt offering. This took place outside the camp, a picture of Christ’s death.) We too should leave the camp and follow the Lord do...

John 19:30  So when Jesus had received the sour wine, He said,  “It is finished!”  And bowing His head, He gave up His spirit. Before the moment of death, Jesus lifted up His voice and shouted "It is finished!". There is incredible significance in this phrase. Everything that needed to be done to secure salvation was done by Jesus upon the cross 2,000 years ago. Christ gave Himself as the ultimate sacrifice to make payment for our sins. There is nothing for us to do except to accept Christ for who He truly is. To think that there is something we sinners could do to have an affect on our eternal life would be arrogance on our part. Only Christ was sufficient to be crucified for our sins.  Christ did EVERYTHING . The only thing for us to do is to accept God's gift of grace. To inherit what Christ has done we must believe that He is God in man form; that we fall short of the glory of God and need Christ and to repent from our Sin.  -BACChristian
