“For it is the life of all flesh, the blood of it is for
the life thereof,” (Leviticus 17: 14)
There is no substitute for blood

oxygen, death will come in a matter of
minutes

Blood is also a defense
against death coming into
the body
Our bodies are surrounded
daily by a host of bacteria
and viruses
Without the defenses in our
blood we would die quickly
of an overwhelming
infection

As wonderful as the human body is, the life that we
currently have in our bodies is common

common life is temporary

at the appropriated time

- 11. The Blood of Christ is Vital for our
Spiritual Health
By looking at all the vital functions of Christ’s
blood it is evident that we require his blood in
order to survive in our spiritual lives
How can we receive the Atonement, the blotting of
sins from our records, if the blood of Christ does
not abide in us while we prepare for his coming

- 12. Obtaining Christ’s Blood
So how do we receive the blood of Christ
while we still live on this earth?.....we
receive his blood through spiritual
communion
What is communion?
It means to share, partake in, and to be a part of
Communion brings us on one accord with God
We know that eating unleavened bread (Christ’s
body) and drinking grape juice (Christ’s blood)
does not make us one with God
Eating unleavened bread and drinking grape
juice is physical communion that represents
something spiritual

- 13. Spiritual Communion
How do we have spiritual
communion with God?
When we obey God and keep his
commandments we are one with him
We must also eat his word daily and
do this by reading & studying the
bible every day
When we read & study we are
having the communion of God
The law is then placed in the
forefront of our minds so that we
always remember & obey

- 14. Spiritual Communion
When Christ was on this earth he also prayed
to God the Father that we might become a
part of him (St. John 14: 21-23)
The Church is also the body of Christ (Romans
12: 4-5)
We can see that through our obedience and
the works of Christ we are able to commune
with him spiritually; and therefore receive his
blood while living on this earth

- 15. The Blood of the New Testament
Matthew 26: 26-28
“And as they were eating, Jesus took bread, and
blessed it, and brake it, and gave it to the disciples,
and said,Take, eat; this is my body. And he took the
cup, and gave thanks, and gave [it] to them, saying,
Drink ye all of it; For this is my blood of the new
testament, which is shed for many for the remission of
sins.”

- 16. What Is a Testament?
Christ often spoke of a testament in the
gospel
A testament is like a covenant or promise
made between two parties
Looking at the scriptures it is evident that
there was a first or old covenant and a
second or new covenant
©2011 Household Of Israel Temple Of Jesus Christ. All Rights Reserved
- 17. First Covenant
When Israel was first established as a nation
Moses received the 10 commandments,
judgements and promises of God in Mt. Sinai
Moses presented what God told him to the people
of Israel & they promised to obey
This became a covenant between God & Israel, all
of which was recorded in a book by Moses
©2011 Household Of Israel Temple Of Jesus Christ. All Rights Reserved
- 18. First Covenant
Moses then built an altar and the
children of Israel offered the sacrifice of
animals to God at the bottom of Mt Sinai
Moses took half of the blood, which was
the BLOOD of ANIMALS and sprinkled
it upon all the people who promised to
obey while reading the covenant once
more
“Behold the blood of the covenant, which
the Lord hath made unto you concerning all
these words”

- 19. Second Covenant
Christ spoke of the New
Testament or Covenant in his
blood
It was not the sacrifice of
animals but the sacrifice that
Christ made of himself, in
which his blood spilled to the
earth
With the shedding of Christ’s
blood we were bestowed the
free gift, which is grace
©2011 Household Of Israel Temple Of Jesus Christ. All Rights Reserved
- 20. Second Covenant
The free gift is the resurrection of all men &
the opportunity to be saved by God with
CONDITIONS OF OBEDIENCE
It is important to remember that though
resurrection is guaranteed to all humankind
salvation is NOT guaranteed to everyone
Salvation is determined by whether you obey
the laws of God as he commanded you to

- 21. Second Covenant
The First Testament or Covenant entailed laws written
on stone that humankind broke
The Second Testament or Covenant entails laws written
permanently upon our hearts
Christ’s blood, when sprinkled upon us will purge our
hearts & minds and we will never break his laws again
His blood is so powerful it will permanently erase our
sins from our record books, which we discussed during
the Day of Atonement
