Dr. Bob Jones Sr. told the story of standing by the side of an old preacher in Alabama that was dying. He had preached the gospel for more than 50 years. His son was also a preacher. His son knelt down by his dying fathers bed, "Father, let your mantle fall on me." With a feeble voice the father replied, "Son, get the mantle of the Lord."

Nothing but the blood of Jesus.
O precious is the flow
That makes me white as snow,
No other fount I know,
Nothing but the blood of Jesus.
In the familiar text before us Peter speaks of the blood as something precious to the Christian. Let me point out 3 things from the passage about the blood of the Lord Jesus.

A) The Work of Redemption
The word "redeemed" means "to set free by the payment of a ransom." This implies three things. First, we were sl ...
