The Scarlet Thread That Runs Through the Bible Hebrews 9:22 After God had given the law to Moses, Moses shared the law with the people. Then he made a sacrificial offering to the Lord. He took the blood of the animal and sprinkled both the book of the law and the people. This was a dedication service, a service commemorating the institution of God's first covenant, and note how it was being instituted: by death—by the shedding of the blood of a sacrifice.Under the covenant and law, almost all things were purged and cleansed by blood. In fact, without the shedding of blood there was no cleansing or forgiveness. This was true throughout the whole reign of the law—from the institution of the law down to the present. For men have always had a sense of failing, of coming short, and of being imperfect. They have known a frightening fact: they had to pay for their sins or else someone or something had to take their place and be sacrificed for them. This is the argument, the proof that Jesus Christ is the Mediator of God's new covenant with man. Jesus Christ shed His blood; He died for man. He has paid the penalty for man's sins. He has instituted and launched God's new covenant with man.
