John 6:53-56 Hints That Yahshua's Flesh and Blood Are Found In His Word Via His Spirit CLICK ON IMAGE TO ENLARGE |
These Three Benefits - Which Are Only For Those Chosen By God To Receive Them - Are:
1.) His Blood Was Shed To Purchase Our Redemption And Open The Way For Believers To Be Justified (i.e. Forgiven Of All Sin And Made To Appear Righteous Through Christ) Under The New Blood Covenant Of Grace Cut On The Cross And Commemorated Via The Ritual Of The Lord's Supper, Of Which We Should Not Partake Until We Examine Ourselves And Judge Ourselves As Worthy.
2.) Eating and Drinking In Yahshua's Body And Blood Found In His Covenant Laws Or Commandments Feed Our Souls And Spirits, Marks Our Adoption As Sons And Daughters Into The Family Of God, And Gives Us Everlasting Life So That We No Longer Fear Mortal Death.
3.) His Blood - Shed From His Stripes Or Wounds To Cover Over Our Sins - Heals And Strengthens Our Mortal Bodies When We Judge Ourselves And Conform To His Will Or Commandments.To show the truth of these three benefits given to believers under the Royal Blood of Yahshua (which makes us hereditary royal heirs of God's Kingdom when we are covered by it through belief in and love of Yahshua - See 1 Peter 2:9), I have found all of the pertinent Scriptures concerning the efficacy and purpose of the shedding of Yahshua precious blood, and I have quoted them below each stated benefit:
1.) His Blood Was Shed To Purchase Our Redemption And Open The Way For Believers To Be Justified (i.e. Forgiven Of All Sin And Made To Appear Righteous Through Christ) Under The New Blood Covenant Of Grace Cut On The Cross And Commemorated Via The Ritual Of The Lord's Supper, Of Which We Should Not Partake Until We Examine Ourselves And Judge Ourselves As Worthy:
Mark 14:22-25 ~ The Ritual of the Lord's Supper Is Inaugurated: “And as they were eating, Jesus (Yahshua) took bread, blessed and broke it, and gave it to them and said, “Take, eat; this is My body.” 23 Then He took the cup, and when He had given thanks He gave it to them, and they all drank from it. 24 And He said to them, “This is My blood of the New Covenant, which is shed for many. 25 Assuredly, I say to you, I will no longer drink of the fruit of the vine until that day when I drink it new in the kingdom of God.””
Luke 22:19-20 ~ “And He took bread, gave thanks and broke it, and gave it to them, saying, ‘This is My body which is given for you; do this in remembrance of Me.’ 20 Likewise He also took the cup after supper, saying, ‘This cup is the New Covenant in My blood, which is shed for you.’ ”
Acts 20:27-28 ~ “For I have not shunned to declare to you the whole counsel of God. 28 Therefore take heed to yourselves and to all the flock, among which the Holy Spirit has made you overseers, to shepherd the church of God which He purchased with His own blood.”
Romans 3:21-26 ~ “But now the righteousness of God apart from the law is revealed, being witnessed by the Law and the Prophets, 22 even the righteousness of God, through faith in Jesus Christ (i.e. Yahshua the Anointed Messiah), to all and on all who believe. For there is no difference; 23 for all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God, 24 being justified freely by His grace through the redemption that is in Christ Jesus (i.e. Our Anointed One or Messiah Yahshua), 25 whom God set forth as a propitiation by His blood, through faith, to demonstrate His righteousness, because in His forbearance God had passed over the sins that were previously committed, 26 to demonstrate at the present time His righteousness, that He might be just and the justifier of the one who has faith in Jesus (Yahshua).”
Romans 5:8-10 ~ “But God demonstrates His own love toward us, in that while we were still sinners, Christ died for us. 9 Much more then, having now been justified by His blood, we shall be saved from wrath through Him. 10 For if when we were enemies we were reconciled to God through the death of His Son, much more, having been reconciled, we shall be saved by His life.”
Hebrews 9:13-15 ~ “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? 15 And for this reason He is the Mediator of the new covenant, by means of death, for the redemption of the transgressions under the first covenant, that those who are called may receive the promise of the eternal inheritance.”
Ephesians 2:8-13 ~ “For by grace you have been saved through faith, and that not of yourselves; it is the gift of God, 9 not of works, lest anyone should boast. 10 For we are His workmanship, created in Christ Jesus (Messiah Yahshua) for good works, which God prepared beforehand that we should walk in them. 11 Therefore remember that you, once Gentiles in the flesh—who are called Uncircumcision by what is called the Circumcision made in the flesh by hands— 12 that at that time you were without Christ, being aliens from the commonwealth of Israel and strangers from the covenants of promise, having no hope and without God in the world. 13 But now in Christ Jesus (Messiah Yahshua) you who once were far off have been brought near by the blood of Christ.”
2.) Eating and Drinking In Yahshua's Body And Blood Found In His Covenant Laws Or Commandments Feed Our Souls And Spirits, Marks Our Adoption As Sons And Daughters Into The Family Of God, And Gives Us Everlasting Life So That We No Longer Fear Mortal Death (NOTE: This Is Only For Those Chosen By God To Receive It):
John 6: 43-65 ~ “Jesus therefore answered and said to them, “Do not murmur among yourselves. 44 No one can come to Me unless the Father who sent Me draws him; and I will raise him up at the last day. 45 It is written in the prophets, ‘And they shall all be taught by God.’ Therefore everyone who has heard and learned from the Father comes to Me. 46 Not that anyone has seen the Father, except He who is from God; He has seen the Father. 47 Most assuredly, I say to you, he who believes in Me has everlasting life. 48 I am the bread of life. 49 Your fathers ate the manna in the wilderness, and are dead. 50 This is the bread which comes down from heaven, that one may eat of it and not die. 51 I am the living bread which came down from heaven. If anyone eats of this bread, he will live forever; and the bread that I shall give is My flesh, which I shall give for the life of the world.”
52 The Jews therefore quarreled among themselves, saying, “How can this Man give us His flesh to eat?” 53 Then Jesus said to them, “Most assuredly, I say to you, unless you eat the flesh of the Son of Man and drink His blood, you have no life in you. 54 Whoever eats My flesh and drinks My blood has eternal life, and I will raise him up at the last day. 55 For My flesh is food indeed, and My blood is drink indeed. 56 He who eats My flesh and drinks My blood abides in Me, and I in him. 57 As the living Father sent Me, and I live because of the Father, so he who feeds on Me will live because of Me. 58 This is the bread which came down from heaven—not as your fathers ate the manna, and are dead. He who eats this bread will live forever.”
These things He said in the synagogue as He taught in Capernaum. 60 Therefore many of His disciples, when they heard this, said, “This is a hard saying; who can understand it?” 61 When Jesus knew in Himself that His disciples complained about this, He said to them, “Does this offend you? 62 What then if you should see the Son of Man ascend where He was before? 63 It is the Spirit who gives life; the flesh profits nothing. The words that I speak to you are spirit, and they are life. 64 But there are some of you who do not believe.” For Jesus (Yahshua) knew from the beginning who they were who did not believe, and who would betray Him. 65 And He said, “Therefore I have said to you that no one can come to Me unless it has been granted to him by My Father.”
Ephesians 1:3-14 ~ “Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ (Adonai Yahshua the Messiah), who has blessed us with every spiritual blessing in the heavenly places in Christ, 4 just as He chose us in Him before the foundation of the world, that we should be holy and without blame before Him in love, 5 having predestined us to adoption as sons by Jesus Christ (Yahshua the Anointed One or Messiah) to Himself, according to the good pleasure of His will, 6 to the praise of the glory of His grace, by which He made us accepted in the Beloved.
7 In Him we have redemption through His blood, the forgiveness of sins, according to the riches of His grace 8 which He made to abound toward us in all wisdom and prudence, 9 having made known to us the mystery of His will, according to His good pleasure which He purposed in Himself, 10 that in the dispensation of the fullness of the times He might gather together in one all things in Christ, both which are in heaven and which are on earth—in Him. 11 In Him also we have obtained an inheritance, being predestined according to the purpose of Him who works all things according to the counsel of His will, 12 that we who first trusted in Christ should be to the praise of His glory.
13 In Him you also trusted, after you heard the word of truth, the gospel of your salvation; in whom also, having believed, you were sealed with the Holy Spirit of promise, 14 who is the guarantee of our inheritance until the redemption of the purchased possession, to the praise of His glory.”
1 Colossians 1:9-20 ~ “For this reason we also, since the day we heard it, do not cease to pray for you, and to ask that you may be filled with the knowledge of His will in all wisdom and spiritual understanding; 10 that you may walk worthy of the Lord, fully pleasing Him, being fruitful in every good work and increasing in the knowledge of God; 11 strengthened with all might, according to His glorious power, for all patience and longsuffering with joy; 12 giving thanks to the Father who has qualified us to be partakers of the inheritance of the saints in the light. 13 He has delivered us from the power of darkness and conveyed us into the kingdom of the Son of His love, 14 in whom we have redemption through His blood, the forgiveness of sins.
15 He is the image of the invisible God, the firstborn over all creation. 16 For by Him all things were created that are in heaven and that are on earth, visible and invisible, whether thrones or dominions or principalities or powers. All things were created through Him and for Him. 17 And He is before all things, and in Him all things consist. 18 And He is the head of the body, the church, who is the beginning, the firstborn from the dead, that in all things He may have the preeminence. 19 For it pleased the Father that in Him all the fullness should dwell, 20 and by Him to reconcile all things to Himself, by Him, whether things on earth or things in heaven, having made peace through the blood of His cross.”
Hebrews 2:10-15 ~ “For it was fitting for Him, for whom are all things and by whom are all things, in bringing many sons to glory, to make the captain of their salvation perfect through sufferings. 11 For both He who sanctifies and those who are being sanctified are all of one, for which reason He is not ashamed to call them brethren, 12 saying:
“I will declare Your name to My brethren;
In the midst of the assembly I will sing praise to You.”
13 And again: “I will put My trust in Him.”
And again: “Here am I and the children whom God has given Me.”
14 Inasmuch then as the children have partaken of flesh and blood, He Himself likewise shared in the same, that through death He might destroy him who had the power of death, that is, the devil, 15 and release those who through fear of death were all their lifetime subject to bondage.”
3.) His Blood - Shed From His Stripes Or Wounds To Cover Over Our Sins - Heals And Strengthens Our Mortal Bodies When We Judge Ourselves And Conform To His Will Or Commandments:
We Judge Ourselves By The Flesh Or Bread And Blood Or Wine Of God's Word |
1 Peter 1:13-23 ~ “Therefore gird up the loins of your mind, be sober, and rest your hope fully upon the grace that is to be brought to you at the revelation of Jesus Christ (Yahshua the Messiah); 14 as obedient children, not conforming yourselves to the former lusts, as in your ignorance; 15 but as He who called you is holy, you also be holy in all your conduct, 16 because it is written, “Be holy, for I am holy.”
17 And if you call on the Father, who without partiality judges according to each one’s work, conduct yourselves throughout the time of your stay here in fear; 18 knowing that you were not redeemed with corruptible things, like silver or gold, from your aimless conduct received by tradition from your fathers, 19 but with the precious blood of Christ (the Anointed One), as of a lamb without blemish and without spot.
20 He indeed was foreordained before the foundation of the world, but was manifest in these last times for you 21 who through Him believe in God, who raised Him from the dead and gave Him glory, so that your faith and hope are in God. 22 Since you have purified your souls in obeying the truth through the Spirit in sincere love of the brethren, love one another fervently with a pure heart, 23 having been born again, not of corruptible seed but incorruptible, through the word of God which lives and abides forever...”
1 Peter 2:20-25 ~ “But when you do good and suffer, if you take it patiently, this is commendable before God. 21 For to this you were called, because Christ also suffered for us, leaving us an example, that you should follow His steps:
22 “Who committed no sin, Nor was deceit found in His mouth”;
23 who, when He was reviled, did not revile in return; when He suffered, He did not threaten, but committed Himself to Him who judges righteously; 24 who Himself bore our sins in His own body on the tree, that we, having died to sins, might live for righteousness—by whose stripes you were healed. 25 For you were like sheep going astray, but have now returned to the Shepherd and Overseer of your souls.”

CONCLUSIONS DRAWN FROM THIS STUDY:
From this study of the most important passages concerning the need for, and the efficacy of the Royal Blood of Yahshua, I learned that we truly are blessed by the blood covering of Yahshua's sacrifice on the Cross with redemption from, and forgiveness of all sin. Through God's Unmerited Favor or Grace, we receive immediate Justification so that we are seen as righteous before God's throne, and we therefore can directly approach God our Heavenly Father with our petitions without the need of a priest or pastor.
I also learned that we are called to undertake our own Sanctification, through which we are called to judge ourselves through careful introspection, and work out our salvation with fear and trembling before the throne of God (Philippians 2:12-13). This can only be done when we are in constant prayer, and draw near to Yahshua through His Holy Spirit, Who directs us to use our spiritual gifts to do good works on behalf of God's people.
Finally, I learned that Yahshua's Blood is meant to heal our blood or DNA, and to give us vibrant health (even in this life!) when we exercise our faith, as well as guarantee our future everlasting perfection after our coming resurrection from the dead. However, this same blood covering can become a curse to those believers who are not actively pursuing their own Sanctification.
In fact, this reluctance on the part of lukewarm or apostate believers who refuse to work out their salvation can actually lead to the sickness and disease of their bodies. If not corrected, this reluctance to seek sanctification before God by keeping His commandments, and heeding the lead of the Holy Spirit can lead to the premature death of those who are disobedient, and do not judge their actions and deeds in the light of God's commandments.
Sanctification can therefore only progress in believers who are studying God's Word - and specifically His Moral Law - to see where they have gone astray. This can then lead to further Sanctification as believers ask God the Father to lead them to correct their mistakes, and to become more like Yahshua in action, word and deed via the prompting of His indwelling Spirit.
I found this study to be very enlightening, and I hope that it will prove to be a blessing to all of you, especially those of you who are inexplicably sick, and are seeking full healing and restoration from God.
