Seed for Aug 29

Matt 5:9
9 Blessed are the peacemakers: for they shall be called the children of God.
(KJV)

Jesus came to bring peace between God and man. There was enmity between God and man because of sin. We were in need of reconciliation, or to be brought back into union with God, and only the blood of the innocent could pay for the blood of the guilty. Through out the history of mankind there was always the offering of the blood of the innocent lamb, as a foreshadow of the real Lamb of God. Every time the blood of an innocent lamb was offered they were in type, looking forward to the offering of the blood of Jesus. (the true Lamb of God) They looked forward in time to Calvary, and we look back to Calvary for the offering one time of the blood of the Lamb of God. By faith in the blood of Jesus are we made friends again with God, and no longer are His enemies. Now we have that ministry to point others to the blood of the Lamb, to thus become the peacemakers, between God and fallen man. When we do this we are called the children of God. What a beautiful title, to be a son, child of God. Every chance you get, tell the lost, they can come to God, easily thru the blood of Jesus, the innocent Lamb of God. Be blessed.
