Precious Blood Quotes

“One of the striking testimonies of the truthfulness of the Bible as God’s revelation is its coherence. Authors separated by centuries of history and remarkably different cultures are all saying fundamentally the same message: God alone brings life to people caught up in death, and God alone brings life through a ransom paid, a ransom paid by a substitute so that the one whom God is bringing to life might live.”
― Richard D. Phillips, Precious Blood: The Atoning Work of Christ

“At midnight, we look out over Egypt. It is darkness; there is no light anywhere; everyone is fast asleep. Suddenly, on the horizon we see a bright light descend from heaven, a destroying angel sent to pass through Egypt. We see the angel pausing at every house for just a moment, moving swiftly through, as Peter says, “as a thief in the night” (2 Pet. 3:10). Are you ready for that angel of death? Are you prepared? Or is death going to be the greatest shock of your life? In the darkness of midnight, the Lord smites all those who are not sheltering under the blood of Christ.”
