9: Jesus, the Perfect Sacrifice – Singing With Inspiration
The titles of the thirteen Sabbaths of study this quarter give us two hymns to use as the themes
Hymn 593 – In Times Like These and
Hymn 177 – Jesus, Your Blood and Righteousness.
On Sabbath afternoon Paul simply called the gospel “the word of the cross” which points us to
Hymn 159 – The Old Rugged Cross.
Sunday gives us the stark reminder that
Jesus Paid It All – Hymn 184. God’s own sacrifice is complete as in
Hymn 157 – Go To Dark Gethsemane, showing us
The Wonders of Redeeming Love – Hymn 179 from Jesus. Hallelujah!!! I am
Redeemed! – Hymn 337/338. Yes,
By Christ Redeemed – Hymn 402. Jesus paid the perfect sacrifice for all who accept.
The cross (Wednesday) shows the enormous cost for our redemption:
Hymn 312 – Near the Cross. I am forgiven and will
Come With Joy – Hymn 400 to my Saviour, because
Jesus What a Friend of Sinners – Hymn 187, all because
There Is a Green Hill Far Away – Hymn 164 (verse 3).
Jesus, Your Blood and Righteousness – Hymn 177 is standing and making “an effectual plea in our behalf” (Thursday).
Friday finalises with the fact that Calvary covers all our sins:
Hymn 476 – Burdens Are Lifted At Calvary,
Hymn 317 – Lead Me to Calvary,
Hymn 109 – Marvelous Grace,
Hymn 159 – The Old Rugged Cross, and then
I Will Sing of Jesus’ Love – Hymn 183.
We are bound for The Promised Land! Hallelujah!! –
Hymn 620 – On Jordan’s Stormy Banks. Come, Lord Jesus, come – very soon.
