To have a person's sins blotted out

continued from previous post

First, one must realize that they have sinned against G-D himself. "But we are all as an unclean thing, and all our righteousnesses are as filthy rags..." Isaiah 64:6 There is a trouble, a cause of sinning. In Jeremiah chapter 17 verse 9 the answer for the cause of sinning is found. The verse says "The heart is deceitful above all things, and desperately wicked: who can know it?" There is One Who does know the heart, and Who will repay the the wrongs done. "I the L-RD search the heart, I try the reins, even to give every man according to his ways, and according to the fruit of his doings," Jeremiah 17:10. "Behold, all souls are mine, as the soul of the father, so also the soul of the son is mine: the soul that sinneth, it shall die." Ezekiel 18:4 "The wicked shall be turned into hell..." Psalm 9:17

But the same just G-D is merciful. He says, "Blessed is he whose transgression is forgiven, whose sin is covered." Psalm 32:1. He provides the means for the transgression to be forgiven and the sin to be covered. "For the life of the flesh is in the blood: and I have given it to you upon the altar to make an atonement for your souls; For it is the blood that maketh an atonement for the soul" Leviticus 17:11

But where is the blood G-D has provided? ( to be continued)
