“There is Power in the Blood of The Lamb”
A 2005, Australian news article made the following report: “Sheep’s blood provides rattlesnake anti-venom”. The UK-based biotechnology company, Protherics is developing the treatment at a property at Mintaro in South Australia’s Clare Valley. The Protherics operations manager, Rob Mugford, says “Australian sheep are being used because they are free of diseases like scrapie and foot and mouth.” – https://www.abc.net.au/news/2005-05-23
These Australian sheep are regarded as the best candidates for their blood is the purest in terms of not being tainted by diseases common to many other animals, including other sheep breeds. The deadly venom of the rattlesnake is potentially neutralized by the anti-venom produced by the blood of these particular sheep!
Two great verses of Scripture come to mind: “The next day John seeth Jesus coming unto him, and saith, Behold the Lamb of God, which taketh away the sin of the world.” – John 1:29; “And from Jesus Christ, who is the faithful witness, and the first begotten of the dead, and the prince of the kings of the earth. Unto him that loved us, and washed us from our sins in his own blood,” – Revelation 1:5
The deadly venom of the serpent’s bite and the concurrent sin disease is cured by the blood of God’s Lamb! “And as Moses lifted up the serpent in the wilderness, even so must the Son of man be lifted up: That whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have eternal life.” – John 3:14-15 The Lamb of God was lifted up on the cross at Calvary and lost, sin diseased sinners, can be saved and cured by the look of faith in the “Lamb’s” redemptive work on our behalf.
