Although the heavenly Father does not hold a casual attitude toward sin, He is not shocked by it either. He has made provision for it, not as an invitation to sin, but to receive His freedom from its guilt. Humanistic theology features the Father as a somewhat doddering, near senile, harmless old man who forgives because He couldn't do much else in His defense anyway. Most people never express such ideas or, for that matter, bother to discover what they do think about forgiveness. But to experience the full peace of forgiveness we must understand the key to its power.
Blood is the only price adequate to cover payment for sin.
Jesus knew and announced that His death on the cross was that instrument of payment. It was the Father's plan and the Son's agreement to this redeeming event that produced Calvary. This message was foretold by the Old Testament prophets and confirmed by the preaching of the New Testament apostles. Therefore, peace of mind and a clear conscience before God are available through the blood. Forgiveness is abundant, but it isn't the splash of a supermarket display.
