O, the Blood of Jesus

[Della]

I think I may have found a link between Catholics and Evangelical Christians in this Gospel song:

Oh, The blood of Jesus
Chorus
Oh, the blood of Jesus x3
It will never lose its power.

Verse
Yet he was despised and rejected
a man of sorrows acquainted with grief
wounded for our transgressions
he was bruised for our iniquites
Solo:
Yet he rose on the third morning
with all power in his hands
Choir:
Came back to his father in glory
and is soon to come again

Both Catholics and Protestants believe this, but more, Catholics believe that the Blood of Jesus is made present in the Eucharist. So, when our Protestant brethren are invoking Jesus’ blood, they are, without realizing it, invoking the Holy Eucharist which makes the Body and Blood, Soul and Divinity of Christ present for the benefit of all of us. Comments? Disagreements (respectful, of course ) ?

The Baptists I grew up within thought the Blood of Christ was more represented in the baptismal waters. There was a song about being washed in the Blood of the Lamb.

Now i know why the baptist doesn’t believe in the reality of blood of Jesus coz if the do they would smell really stinky.

Just Kidding

Well, gosh, if they were literal about their use of the Blood of the Lamb for baptism – oh wait, aren’t we the ones who aren’t literal enough?

I get so confused.

we’ll at least we have the word transubstantiation eh?

They don’t have that word so they will be really stinky if they use the blood in replacement of water in baptism.

All,

The Passion according to St. John makes a big deal out of the fact that from the side of Christ, there flowed “blood and water.” We are justified by the blood of Christ and the water of baptism.
