Christians are so passionate about the blood of Jesus. We sing of the precious blood, “Come thou fount, the blood that cleanse each spot, just as I am, gaining an interest in the Saviour’s blood, and can it be.” We sing, “O for a thousand tongues, the blood that makes the foulest clean, the wonder-working power of the blood”, and many more.

They also nailed the criminals to crosses beside Jesus – one on the right and...
