Purchased with His Blood

“Worthy are you to receive the scroll and break open its seals, for you were slain and with your Blood you purchased for God those from every tribe and tongue, people and nation. You made them a kingdom and priests for our God, and they will reign on earth.” (Rv 5: 9-10)

We are so important to our God, the Father. We are purchased for God with the Blood of Our Lord. No one is excluded: “from every tribe and tongue, people and nation.” And Our Lord gives us a new identity: “a kingdom and priests for our God.”

“The Lord said: I think thoughts of peace and not of affliction. You will call upon me, and I will answer you, and I will lead back your captives from every place.” ( Entrance Antiphon)
