Fill this place with blood, and that of no other than the Lord Jesus Christ,
I am what I am; if it were not for mercy I too would be damned,
But by the grace of God I stand in his righteousness, not of my own,
To him who worketh not, but believes on him alone.
"Fill this place with blood," was told to Israel,
Exodus from Egypt; Christ in Passover,
Remove the leaven, true repentance,
A thief on the cross, Jonah's second chance.
Blood atonement is what God requires,
Now notice closely...
Slay the lamb, take a bunch of hyssop, dip it in the blood, strike it on the door,
It was not who was inside - did they do what God said?
This is what matters, so now believe him.
Blood atonement is to be understood: substitutionary death,
You will either stand before God bearing all of your sins and pay the penalty, or let Christ stand there for you, as he did at Calvary to give you a gift,
Justification, the gift of righteousness.
