Continual Burnt Offering: Daily Meditations, December 26 (1:5-6)
“Unto Him that loved us, and washed us from our sins in His own blood, and hath made us kings and priests unto God and His Father; to Him be glory and dominion forever and ever. Amen” — Revelation 1:5, 6.
IT is really the present tense in the first clause— “Him that loveth us.” His love is unchanging and eternal. Saints in glory will take up this pan of praise which will sound through endless ages through the courts of heaven. But they who sing up there must learn to use the words down here. For God has willed that those who believe on His Son should know that their sins have been washed away by the precious blood of Christ and they are even now constituted a Kingdom of priests unto God, His Father, and ours, to be adoring worshippers for all eternity.
