Transcript
Matthew 26:28 “for this is my blood of the covenant, which is poured out for many for the forgiveness of sins.”
Speaker: [Your Name]
Opening Prayer: "Father Yahweh, open our eyes to see the depths of Your covenant. Let us not treat the blood of Jesus as something small or symbolic, but as the mighty weapon that shattered cosmic rebellion, reclaimed us, and inaugurated Your eternal kingdom. Let us hear this Word not just with our ears, but with loyal hearts. Amen."
Introduction: Matthew 26:28: "For this is my blood of the covenant, which is poured out for many for the forgiveness of sins."
This isn’t just about personal salvation. This is a cosmic declaration, a divine council drama, and a new exodus for all who swear loyalty to the true King.
Let’s explore four dimensions of this passage that show how Jesus' blood reclaims everything.
1. Blood and Covenant in Cosmic Context
1. Blood and Covenant in Cosmic Context
When Jesus speaks of "my blood of the covenant," He echoes Exodus 24:8, where Moses seals the Sinai covenant with blood. But now, it’s not animal blood—it’s God’s own blood.
Jesus' death isn't just a sacrifice—it's a cosmic war act. It's the fulfillment of Zechariah 9:11, where covenant blood sets prisoners free.
Jesus' blood seals a new covenant that destroys the power of the rebellious elohim. It doesn’t just fulfill the Law—it replaces the old system with a divine triumph.
Quote: "The cross is the throne, and the blood is the banner of victory."
2. Forgiveness of Sins as Cosmic Reversal
2. Forgiveness of Sins as Cosmic Reversal
"Forgiveness of sins" isn’t just a moral reset. It’s the reversal of humanity’s cosmic disloyalty. In Eden (Gen 3), with the Watchers (Gen 6), and at Babel (Gen 10–11), humans abandoned Yahweh.
Jesus’ blood reclaims sacred space. He doesn't just clean you—He rescues you from loyalty to rival gods. He confronts the corruption of the shedim, the spiritual beings who took authority over the nations.
Psalm 82: God judges the gods. In Jesus, that judgment begins.
Forgiveness means being reinstated as loyal members of Yahweh’s family.
3. A New Exodus and a New Moses
3. A New Exodus and a New Moses
The Last Supper is a Passover meal. Jesus doesn’t just fulfill Passover; He recasts it. It’s not about deliverance from Egypt, but deliverance from spiritual Egypt—the domain of darkness, the realm of fallen powers.
Exodus 24:8 is fulfilled in Matthew 26:28. But the new Moses (Jesus) mediates a better covenant with His own blood.
Matthew is intentionally casting Jesus as a superior Moses. Where Moses sealed the law, Jesus seals salvation.
His blood is not just a symbol—it’s the active power of a new liberation.
4. Divine Council Implications: A New Order Begins
4. Divine Council Implications: A New Order Begins
Jesus' death wasn’t just a human transaction—it was a heavenly legal event. In the divine council, the blood of Christ was presented not just as atonement but as a claim of sovereignty.
Jesus is enthroned through death. The loyal elohim affirm Him. The rebels are cast down.
He is not just mediator—He is cosmic King. He establishes a kingdom that dethrones the gods of the nations and invites us to reign with Him.
Ezekiel 16:59–63, Jeremiah 31:31–34: These promised that a new covenant would bring forgiveness without kipper sacrifice. Matthew 26:28 proves that has now happened.
This is a spiritual coup d'état. The council has shifted. The new era has begun.
Conclusion:Matthew 26:28 is the single most loaded statement at the Last Supper. In one sentence, Jesus claims:
To be the new Moses
To be the Passover Lamb
To be the mediator of the new covenant
To be the cosmic King who forgives sin, defeats the gods, and reclaims the nations
And He does it not with a sword, but with His blood.
Quote: "The blood of Jesus does not whisper forgiveness; it shouts cosmic victory."
Closing Call: If you’ve been treating the gospel as a personal fix, today is the day to see it for what it is: a cosmic rescue.
Declare your loyalty. Step into the covenant. Join the spiritual exodus.
Closing Prayer: "Lord Jesus, we stand in awe of Your blood. We confess our disloyalty, and we swear allegiance to You again. Thank You for defeating the powers, for reclaiming us, and for inviting us to the table of the covenant. May we live as loyal sons and daughters in the kingdom You died to inaugurate. Amen."
