Doxologies of the New Testament (16)â€”Loves Us and Washed Us

To Him who loves us, and has washed us from our sins in His blood, and made us a kingdom, priests to His God and Father: to Him be the glory and the might to the ages of ages. Amen.
Revelation 1:5-6

Doxologies of the New Testament (16)â€”Loves Us and Washed Us
Revelation is full of prophetic details, but that is not what it is about. Its subject is Jesus Christ revealed as the rightful heir and ruler of all things. The seven-sealed scroll will be placed in the hand of the Lamb by God the Father (), but it is also blessedly true that He currently loves us. He has "washed us" (or "loosed us") by His precious blood! As a kingdom of priests we don't have to wait for heaven to praise Him: "to Him be the glory and the might to the ages of ages. Amen."
