When you look at what happens in the Old Testament, you can see there was no way for God to ensure we could all be forgiven except by having a supreme once for all sacrifice, which involved the shedding of blood. Because literally and figuratively, that blood secures our forgiveness.
I have to admit that I do find that strange, and this is one of the questions that I might want to ask God when we get into the next life: God, why is blood important for forgiveness? Nevertheless, we know it to be true. The witness of scripture is consistent on this point. Jesus’ blood is the way that we are saved, and we must thank God that he made that possible.
