People can tell you how JESUS can save you, but they cannot save you.

1Pe 1:18  Forasmuch as ye know that ye were not redeemed with corruptible things, as silver and gold, from your vain conversation received by tradition from your fathers;
1Pe 1:19  But with the precious blood of Christ, as of a lamb without blemish and without spot

We are NOT saved by words! We are saved by THE WORD.

Joh 1:1  In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God.
Joh 1:2  The same was in the beginning with God.
Joh 1:3  All things were made by him; and without him was not any thing made that was made.

We were saved by the PRECIOUS BLOOD OF CHRIST.

The traditions and vain conversations we have received from many, haven't we? The Christian religion is FILLED with traditions that are not Biblical. Vain conversations- we can talk until we are blue in the face and it'll mean nothing, we can't be redeemed from our traditions and our inane chatter by anything BUT the BLOOD OF CHRIST.  We can't buy our way out of our sins.  We can't use traditions, we can't use pretty speeches, we have to accept the PRECIOUS BLOOD OF CHRIST. 

To equate the precious blood of Christ with a LAMB without blemish and without spot is equating Him with a PERFECT sacrifice. 

The people of God were given a sacrificial system and the Lambs that were slain, that were sacrificed for their sins were something they were completely familiar with. 

The Savior as a Lamb without blemish and without spot is our ONLY HOPE.

Do not believe ANYONE who tells you that you can redeem yourself by paying for it, I don't care who they are! If anyone offers to forgive you of your sins in order for You to gain salvation- they are LIARS!  Only the SAVIOR can forgive us and offer Salvation to us! No other! Not a single other person can redeem us!

People can tell you how JESUS can save you, but they cannot save you.

People can forgive you for the wrong you've done to them, but they can't forgive you to redeem you.

People can tell you how JESUS will forgive you, but if they TRY to tell you that their forgiving you gives you salvation, they are lying to you.  No one can ABSOLVE you of the penalty of sin. No one can take away any punishment you deserve for the sins you've committed. You can't WORK off your sins!

The LAMB of God, the PERFECT LAMB of GOD- JESUS CHRIST OUR LORD, OUR SAVIOR, He alone can save us through His blood, His sacrifice. 

By HIS grace may we be forgiven, may we be saved!
