The Blood of Christ cleanses from All Sin
"For
if the blood of bulls and of goats, and the ashes of an heifer
sprinkling the unclean, sanctifieth to the purifying of the flesh: how much more shall
the blood of Christ, Who
through the eternal Spirit offered Himself
without spot to God, purge your conscience from dead works to serve
the living God."
-HEBREWS
9:13-14 [KJV]
What
a mercy it is to have a conscience in any measure purged from dead
works to serve the living God; to feel any free access to His
gracious Majesty, any happy liberty in walking before Him, any
deliverance from doubt and fear, any removal of those exercises which
try the mind and often bring heavy burdens upon the soul! Still,
after all our wanderings, we must ever come to the same spot; after
all our departings and backslidings, still again and again we must be
brought to the same place to get the guilt removed, the mercy
proclaimed and the peace revealed.
For is not this the blessedness that the blood of Christ cleanseth from all sin? Having obtained eternal redemption for us, His blood will never lose its efficacy, but will ever purge the conscience as long as the conscience of any burdened member of His mystical body remains to be purged, till He presents all His ransomed saints faultless before the presence of His glory with exceeding joy.
