"They have washed their robes and made them white in the blood of the Lamb." (Revelation 7:14) What a contradiction of terminology! A white robe coming from a blood-stained source? But that's how the blood of Christ works. The blood of the Lamb takes the blackest sin through crimson red...and out comes the purest white.
Sometimes, it's the simplest and most overlooked illustrations that absolutely blow me away. I study to look deeper and deeper into Scripture...wanting to find some profound truth or uncover some treasure I have yet to come across. However, the uncomplicated, simple riches that have already been laid bare...those foundational truths of redemption are just as beautiful, powerful, and amazing as the first time I heard them. Lord willing, may they continue to be.
