When Christ shed His blood on Calvary, He placed it on the Mercy Seat before God the Father, and He, the Father, accepted that offering of the Sacrificial Lamb, the Son as payment for your sin. God's wrath was averted, and no longer is placed on the sinner, but on Christ. The blood offering has removed the enmity between God and man. We have been reconciled unto Him, through Christ Jesus His Son. That We Might Have Peace With God.
Peace always costs someone their life.
We have special days, like Memorial Day, to remind us of the price of freedom. B. He Desires That We Give Our Lives To Him. When we receive Christ as Saviour He then becomes the One who leads and controls our life. We begin to live for Him. We want to do what He wants us to do.
