Mark 15:29-31 'And they that passed by railed on him, wagging their heads, and saying...Save thyself, and come down from the cross... Likewise also the chief priests mocking said among themselves with the scribes, He saved others; himself he cannot save'*
(*mocking, yet all the while profoundly proclaiming the very gospel which they believed not. Come down from the cross? - Nothing but the blood of the only Saviour Christ Jesus will ever wash away your sin)

Leviticus 17:11 'For the life of the flesh is in the blood: and I have given it to you upon the altar to make an atonement for your souls: for it is the blood that maketh an atonement for the soul'
Heb. 9:18 'Whereupon neither the first testament [OT] was dedicated without blood'
Heb. 10:4 '...[but] it is not possible that the blood of bulls and of goats should take away sins'
Heb. 9:28 'So Christ was once offered to bear the sins of many...'
Col. 1:14 'In whom we have redemption through his blood, even the forgiveness of sins'
God the LORD the creator of heaven and earth [Isaiah 45:18] does not forgive sin because he is all-loving and merciful and "knows your heart" and because "he loves you and has a wonderful plan for your life". No, God forgives sin for one reason only: because...of the blood. Confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead, and thou shalt be saved: Rom 10:9
Rev. 18:4
