· We are to walk in the light
as Jesus Christ is in the light and then we have fellowship with one another,
and the blood of Jesus Christ His Son cleanses us from all sin.
So, at what point that
the blood of Jesus Christ cleanses us from all sin? Please note carefully that
the cleansing from sin is something current and not something from the past and
there is only one source by which we receive forgiveness which is through the
blood of Jesus Christ as illustrated by the apostle Paul who wrote; “In Him we
have redemption through His blood, the forgiveness of sins, according to the
riches of His grace” (Ephesians 1:7; Colossians
1:14).
·
No one can say that they have no sin, or have not sinned
Now, since “If we say
that we have no sin, we deceive ourselves, and the truth is not in us. And, “If
we say that we have not sinned, we make Him (God) a liar, and His word is not
in us.” And God has absolutely no fellowship with sin how can we then have
fellowship with God if our sins are not forgiven and cleansed?
It is therefore
conclusive to say that, in order to have fellowship with the Father and with
one another it is imperative that we have our sins forgiven and cleansed and
this can only be done through Jesus Christ the One and only Mediator between
God and Man interceding with the Father on our behalf and offering His body and
blood in the form of the bread and wine as the redemption price for our sins,
otherwise our worship is vain, useless and idolatrous and hence the reason why we
have been duly admonished saying:
“Therefore, my beloved,
flee from idolatry. I speak as to wise men; judge for yourselves what I say. The
cup of blessing which we bless, is it not the communion (fellowship) of the
blood of Christ? The bread which we break, is it not the communion (fellowship)
of the body of Christ? For we, though many, are one bread and one body; for we
all partake of that one bread” (1Corinthians 10:14-17).
Unfortunately, the
majority of professing believers do not take the word of God literally they
used them as metaphors and show little or no respect to the holiness of God
which is diametrically opposite to the sinfulness of man which has absolutely
mothing in common.
