Eat ME!! Drink ME!! (There's power in the word! pt2)

This is not Alice in wonderland, this is children of God wondering wandering (w.o.w.a) in the wilderness. God rained manna from heaven, bring forth water from the rock to feed them, and Jesus said: they are dead. However those who ate the real manna (Jesus' flesh) and drink His blood will live forever.

We know Jesus flesh is the word of God=life, but what's with the blood?

I was taught there're 2 major symbol of Blood of Jesus in the Bible: Blood of the Lamb and Blood of the Grape

The first time the blood of the lamb mentioned was during the exodus of Israel from egypt. The blood was applied on the lintel (above the door space) seperated (sanctified) them and death had to passover them.

The first time blood of the grape mentioned is even more interesting:
Genesis 49:11 He will tether his donkey to a vine, his colt to the choicest branch; he will wash his garments in wine, his robes in the blood of grapes.
Guess where this is from? Jacob's blessing to Judah! and in Revelation, here's what I found and has direct link to above verse:
Rev 7:13-14
Then, addressing me, one of the elders [of the heavenly Sanhedrin] said, Who are these [people] clothed in the long white robes? And from where have they come?I replied, Sir, you know. And he said to me, These are they who have come out of the great tribulation (persecution), and have washed their robes and made them white in the blood of the Lamb.

The Blood of the grape/lamb is the Blood of our Lord Jesus, and it's to sanctified us and separate us from the world, keeping us clean and holy to receive the blessing from God!

That's why in the Holy Communion, the bread and wine (blood of the grape) has to come together, the blood sanctified us and qualify us to partake of the most holy bread: The Flesh of Christ!

And the Lord said in the book of Acts: What God has cleansed, don't you call unclean/common! (x 3 to Peter)

Calling yourself/other christians unclean is as good (bad?) as denying Jesus in your/their life. - Pastor Joseph Prince (2005May08-GodCleansedYou)

Rev 5:9
and with Your blood You purchased men unto God from every tribe and language and people and nation.

The payment is cleared, and cleansing is constant, no matter how we/other see ourself, the Blood is constantly keeping us clean, qualifing us to the blessing of our Abba! Like a man constantly under the gashing water. We are in the 'clean'! and constantly in the blessing of our Abba! (Pastor Joshua : There's no middle ground!)

Amen and amen!!!

p/s: and thanks to ann reminded me yesterday: And they overcame him (mr no-air-time) by the blood of the Lamb and by the word of their testimony, and they did not love their lives to the death. -Rev12:11
