Covered By His Blood

Blood was the prophetic symbol of atonement in the Old Testament that leads us to Jesus Christ for salvation:

The blood will be a sign for you on the houses where you are; and when I see the blood. 
I will pass over you. No destructive plague will touch you when I strike Egypt.  
And He will not permit the destroyer to enter your houses and strike you down.
(Exodus12:13)

For the life of a creature is in the blood, and I have given it to you to make atonement
for yourselves on the altar; it is the blood that makes atonement for one's life.
(Leviticus17:11)

God sent his Son Jesus Christ to make atonement through His blood.
(Ephesians1:-8)

In Him we have redemption through his blood, the forgiveness of sins, in accordance
with the riches of God's grace that He lavished on us with all wisdom and understanding. 

Without the shedding of the blood of Christ we are not clean.
Jesus Christ is the token atonement. God provided a way for us on the altar when
Jesus Christ sacrificed his own blood on the cross.
We can come to Him with full confidence because He suffered for us so that we might have life.
He will wash away our sins if we ask Him to come into our hearts and to cleanse us
from all the sins we have committed.  (read Heb.5:1-10,9:11-28)

As 1John1:7says,  The blood of Jesus his Son purifies us from all sin.
When God sees the blood of his Son in you, no condemnation will be found,
You are set free and escaped from death to life.
As he said in Exo.12:13,"No destructive plague will touch you and He will not permit 
the destroyer to strike you down."
