The document discusses the significance of the blood of Jesus based on several Bible passages. It notes that life is in the blood, humans are sinful from birth, and sin affects our bones. However, the blood of Jesus purifies believers from sin when they walk in the light with God. It also notes that confessing sins results in forgiveness and purification from unrighteousness. Additionally, those who were far from God have been brought near through the blood of Christ. The blood of Christ, as a perfect lamb, was what believers were redeemed by rather than gold or silver. This lamb was chosen before creation to be revealed for believers. Through Jesus, believers have faith and hope in God who raised him from death.

God rewards generous giving with bountiful harvests. The Bible teaches that those who sow sparingly will reap sparingly, while those who sow generously will reap generously. The principle of seedtime and harvest means that generosity results in expansion, both spiritually and materially, as one's world grows larger through helping others, while stinginess shrinks one's world. The primary reason to apply this principle is to support God's kingdom through good deeds.
