Marked by Christ’s Blood (The New Covenant and the Hyssop of John 19:28–29)
In John 19:28–29, the apostle John records a small but theologically rich detail at the crucifixion of Jesus: a hyssop branch lifted to the Savior’s lips. This sermon explores why that matters—connecting the cross to the Old Testament covenant signs given through Moses, where God marked His people with blood applied by hyssop.In this message, Pastor John Musgrave explains how Jesus’ “sprinkled blood” brings believers into the New Covenant, grants the forgiveness of sins, secures our eternal inheritance, and marks us as God’s own treasured possession. Drawing from Exodus 24, Hebrews 9–12, Matthew 26, 1 Peter 1–2, and Revelation 21, we discover how the hyssop at the...
