Long Live the King | Life Given for Life (Blood Sacrifice) | February 22, 2026
Sermon Description:
We’ve become desensitized to blood in our movies and on our screens — but Scripture says blood isn’t about violence, it’s about life. In this message, we explore why “the life is in the blood” (Leviticus 17:11), how sin drains us at the deepest level, and why the cross is not divine cruelty but God’s holy love going all the way. Just as a heart transplant brings new life to a failing body, Jesus gives His life so we can truly live.
SPEAKERS:
