This article is called,”The Life Of The Flesh Is In The blood.” No human exist without blood and animals also. Take the blood out and all you have is death. And of course there are different blood types. how stuff works says, “Do you ever wonder what makes up blood? Unless you need to have blood drawn, donate it or have to stop its flow after an injury, you probably don’t think much about it. But blood is the most commonly tested part of the body, and it is truly the river of life. Every cell in the body gets its nutrients from blood. Understanding blood will help you as your doctor explains the results of your blood tests. In addition, you will learn amazing things about this incredible fluid and the cells in it.
Blood is a mixture of two components: cells and plasma. The heart pumps blood through the arteries, capillaries and veins to provide oxygen and nutrients to every cell of the body. The blood also carries away waste products.
The adult human body contains approximately 5 liters (5.3 quarts) of blood; it makes up 7 to 8 percent of a person’s body weight. Approximately 2.75 to 3 liters of blood is plasma and the rest is the cellular portion.
Plasma is the liquid portion of the blood. Blood cells like red blood cells float in the plasma. Also dissolved in plasma are electrolytes, nutrients and vitamins (absorbed from the intestines or produced by the body), hormones, clotting factors, and proteins such as albumin and immunoglobulins (antibodies to fight infection). Plasma distributes the substances it contains as it circulates throughout the body.
The cellular portion of blood contains red blood cells (RBCs), white blood cells (WBCs) and platelets. The RBCs carry oxygen from the lungs; the WBCs help to fight infection; and platelets are parts of cells that the body uses for clotting. All blood cells are produced in the bone marrow. As children, most of our bones produce blood. As we age this gradually diminishes to just the bones of the spine (vertebrae), breastbone (sternum), “RIBS“, pelvis and small parts of the upper arm and leg. Bone marrow that actively produces blood cells is called red marrow, and bone marrow that no longer produces blood cells is called yellow marrow. (PLEASE REMEMBER HOW GOD TOOK A RIB FROM ADAM TO MAKE EVE).
The process by which the body produces blood is called hematopoiesis. All blood cells (RBCs, WBCs and platelets) come from the same type of cell, called the pluripotential hematopoietic stem cell. This group of cells has the potential to form any of the different types of blood cells and also to reproduce itself. This cell then forms committed stem cells that will form specific types of blood cells.
THE LIFE OF THE FLESH IS IN THE BLOOD
I believe Jesus blood type was “UNIVERSAL” BECAUSE IT COVERED ALL HUMANS. Leviticus 17:11 in the Bible says, “The life of the flesh is in the blood.” The blood is the life giving force that keeps us alive. And it was given to all humans and animals from “THE LIFE GIVER-GOD.”Our blood and life were never intended to become polluted, but it did, all the way back in the garden of Eden,when the first humans sinned. The resulting sin separated our creator. It broke our very relationship and fellowship with God. “As website knowing Jesus” says:
“We gain some important understanding of the atoning power of blood in Leviticus 17: All life belongs to the Lord. He is the one who made us with a spirit, soul, and body, and He is the One Who breathed life into Adam, making man a living soul. When Adam sinned, it was the shedding of blood that covered his transgression. The leaves of a fig tree were not sufficient to make atonement for his sin. Only the blood of an innocent animal could cover sin until the Seed of the woman would redeem mankind from sin, Satan, death, and hell, through the shedding of His own blood.
This truth was reinforced when God chose Israel to be His people. He gave them clear instructions on the atoning work of blood sacrifices. They were told what to sacrifice, where to kill it, how it was to be done, and who was to spill the blood that would cover their sin for a limited period, until the true Sin-Sacrifice would come as the full and final offering for the sin of the world.
Life was given by God, and all life belongs to Him. Because of this, any sacrificial offering not in line with His instruction, was a serious offense. So serious in fact, that any offering made in the camp of Israel that did not follow the Lord’s detailed instructions demanded the culprit be cut off from his people. Any deviation from His plan not only robbed the Lord of what was rightfully His, but became a satanic sacrifice and an abomination in the sight of God. ![](https://www.whatstruelove.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/01/213007880a2345b54acb8adaa23fbfaa-300x300.jpg)
It is in verse 11 that we read: “The life of the flesh is in the blood.” The life of every living creature is in the blood, and God gave Israel the sacrifices to make atonement for their soul; to atone for their life: “For it is the blood by reason of the life, that makes atonement.”
May this truth sink in. Atonement is God’s gift to man and atonement for sin is in the blood alone. Life is God’s gift to man and life is in the blood. Atonement for sin is found in nothing but the spilt blood of the correct sacrifice, as commanded by God Who is the Giver of ALL life. Atonement does not come by the shedding of the blood PLUS something else, for without the shedding of blood there is NO remission of sin. “WHAT CAN WASH AWAY MY SIN, NOTHING BUT THE BLOOD OF JESUS.”
Atonement for sin and the gift of life that accompanies it, comes through God’s acceptance of the shed blood of the correct sacrifice, as written in God’s Word. The requirements for pre-Cross Israel were given in Leviticus, and it pointed to Christ. Instructions for the post-Cross Church are also written in the New Testament, by the Word of the Lord: FAITH in the shed blood of Christ, for there is salvation in none other than Christ, the crucified Lamb of God Who shed His own blood for the sin of the whole world.
It is by the blood of Jesus that we, who were once far off, have come nigh unto God. It is by His blood we have boldness to enter the throne-room of God. He made peace with God on our account by the offering of Himself on the Cross, and the blood of Jesus cleanses us from all sin.
For those that can see it, there is another wonderful truth that can be extracted from this verse. For just as the mortal life of man’s flesh is in the blood, so the eternal life of man’s spirit is in the Holy Spirit. Just as the LIFE of corruptible flesh is given by means of the blood, so the LIFE of the incorruptible flesh is given by means of the Holy Spirit of God.
Just as blood is required to maintain the life of mortal man so the Holy Spirit is required to maintain the life of the one who has been saved by grace through faith in Christ; for we have been given His life in us.” End Quote.
CONCLUSION
All life belongs to God because He is the one that created it. Life was given by God and all life belongs to Him. I wanted to repeat that and hope that statement will become real in your life. No human has ever or can ever satisfy or please GOD, because of sin. Only the holy, undefiled blood of Jesus could do that, and pay for our sins. God showed His love to the world by paying the sacrifice of his son Jesus, to come to earth, be born as a human, to live and die by a crual cross and give His prefect blood for the forgiveness of ALL SIN. All of the old testament animal sacrifices never took away sin but just covered sin. Jesus blood took all sin away. “I BELIEVE THE BLOOD OF JESUS IS ON DISPLAY IN HEAVEN, IT IS THE GREATES TROPHY EVER.”
The greatest sign of God’s love for us was on display when He sent Jesus to come to earth and die on an old rugged cross for our sins. Sin has separated us from God, from His forgiveness and Salvation. Jesus paid the penalty and payment for our sin so that we could be reconciled back to God and forgiven. Sin is a killer just look at Romans 3:23 and Romans 6:23, that is why we all die. The wages of sin is death, but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord.
Will you turn from yourself and turn to God for forgiveness and Salvation? Will you put your faith and trust in Jesus for Eternal Salvation? Will you bow your heart, and call upon God. I Corinthians 10:13 says, “For who so ever shall call (ASK) upon the name of the Lord shall be saved.” I promise you on the authority of God’s word, that He will save you, forgive you and make you, His child. HE
IS THE SUPREME AUTHORITY WHO POSSESSES ALL POWER AND HAS ALREADY SHOWN HIS ETERNAL LOVE TO YOU AND THE WHOLE WORLD. Let God’s Righteous, eternal love, change your life, and save your soul eternally. II Corinthians 5:21 “For he (GOD) hath made him (Jesus) to be sin for us, who knew no sin; that we might be made the righteousness of God in him.” Jesus became our substitute on the cross shedding His blood and paying for our sins.
If you have prayed and received God’s forgiveness for sin, please let me know in the comment section at the bottom so I can rejoice with you. Also, your thoughts, opinions and comments are welcome so leave them also in the comment section at the bottom. This concludes “Love is always righteous and it is God’s Love.
