Life Is In the Blood

Leviticus 17:11 is informative of life both in the world and in Christ's church.

"The life of the flesh is in the blood, and I have given it for you on the altar to make atonement for your souls, for it is the blood that makes atonement by the life."

Let the reader understand.

On the left, Samuel Alexander, a 2 week old (less than 5 months) baby, still in the womb, grabs the doctors finger during surgery. Little Samuel's mother, Julie Amas, is (as of the time of the surgery) an obstetrics nurse in Atlanta. The surgeon, Dr. Joseph Bruner, at the time was practicing our of the Vanderbilt University Medical Center in Nashville, TN.

One wonders if such surgery will be provided under a national plan.

Thanks be to God for surgeons who provide wonderful services such as these.

Lest this be taken purely as rebuke or some pietistic posturing, as a reader in another forum has rightly offered: "Would you be free from the burden of sin? There's power in the blood of the Lamb!" This includes those who have suffered under the accepted norm that the viability and quality of life is determined by anyone but the Giver of same.

Thanks be to God, the author of life, for delivering us from *all* our sins through His only begotten Son, Christ Jesus, our Lord and Savior of the world.
