B.H. Clendennen tells the following in his teaching “The Almighty Blood:”
"I believe Dr. Billy Graham told this story on one of his telecasts, how two medical doctors had been born again in his crusade. In interviewing these medical doctors, Dr. Graham asked, “Suppose a man has lost a hand. Do you believe that God can put that hand back on that arm?”
The answer those doctors gave was very unusual and brought home to me this great truth about the blood of Jesus. They said, the genetic code that put that hand on that arm in the first place is still in the bloodstream, and only awaits the command of a man or woman of faith, and it will put that hand back on the arm.
When we are born again, we receive the blood of Christ. That is the life of this spiritual body, the Holy Spirit, the life of God, the blood. There is no pollution in that blood. In it are the genes of God. As the blood is allowed to flow, as we walk in the light as He is in the light, it is restoring in us the image of Christ."
It is truly amazing to realize that since we are in the same church as the one started in the book of Act’s, we have the same exact genetic code flowing through our spiritual blood veins as they did. This being true, the genetic code that brought MULTITUDES OF TRUE CONVERSIONS IN THE EARLY CHURCH IS STILL IN THE BLOODSTREAM OF THE CHURCH TODAY!!! It was the Blood of Jesus that raised three thousand souls from the dead on the day of Pentecost. Spiritually speaking, blind eyes that had never saw was opened that day, ears that had never heard was unstopped that day, lame legs that had never walked in the truth started walking that day! The Almighty Blood of Jesus brought forth everlasting life throughout the book of Act’s and that same Blood cries out today, “The harvest is truly great, go forth and gather fruit unto life eternal!
God IS RESTORING the church today to the image of Christ and that image aligns perfectly with the one pictured in the gospel: “I came not to save the righteous, but to seek and save that which was lost.” That image is one and the same with the voice of Jesus’ Blood speaking and the cry of the Spirit saying, “Pray ye the Lord of the harvest that he would send laborer’s into HIS harvest.” The same Blood speaks in us his servants as we return an answer, “Here I am, send me!”
Let His voice be my voice!
