It is not enough to simply believe that Jesus died for our
sins. We must apply His blood by baptism in His name “JESUS.” (Acts 2:38)
The Bible says that Christ is our Passover.
"For even Christ our passover is sacrificed for
us:" - 1 Corinthians 5:7 KJV
The blood of the Passover lamb had to be applied to each
house in order to save the occupants.
"And they shall take of the blood, and strike it on the
two side posts and on the upper door post of the houses, wherein they shall eat
it." - Exodus 12:7 KJV
"For I will pass through the land of Egypt this night,
and will smite all the firstborn in the land of Egypt, both man and beast; and
against all the gods of Egypt I will execute judgment: I am the LORD." -
Exodus 12:12 KJV
"And the blood shall be to you for a token upon the
houses where ye are: and when I see the blood, I will pass over you, and the
plague shall not be upon you to destroy you, when I smite the land of
Egypt." - Exodus 12:13 KJV
It was not enough that the Passover lamb died to save the
children of Israel from death and judgment. The blood of the lamb had to be
applied to their homes.
It was not enough that Christ our Passover died to save us
from death and judgment. The blood of the Lamb has to be applied to our life by
baptism in Jesus name.
"For this is my blood of the new testament, which is
shed for many for the remission of sins." - Matthew 26:28 KJV
"Then Peter said unto them, Repent, and be baptized
every one of you in the name of Jesus Christ for the remission of sins, and ye
shall receive the gift of the Holy Ghost." - Acts 2:38 KJV
