Sprinkled and Cleansed

in #religion6 years ago

Hebrews 10:22

22 Let us draw near with a true heart in full
assurance of faith, having our hearts sprinkled from
an evil conscience, and our bodies washed with pure
water.

Much of what happened literally in the Old Testament foreshadowed something that would happen figuratively in the New Testament. In the Old Testament, the blood of sacrificial animals was sprinkled on the altar and on the ark of the covenant. That sprinkling of blood was a literal picture of the washing away of sin. In the New Testament, the same image conveys: Our heart is sprinkled figuratively with the blood of Christ’s perfect sacrifice, cleansing us “from an evil conscience” and the stain of sin.

In the Old Testament, such sprinkling was done intimately—literally, the length of an arm was the distance from the blood to the object it covered. Just so, in the New Testament we must “draw near” to God “with a true heart in full assurance of faith.” Drawing near to God in faith avails us of the benefits of Christ’s blood cleansing us from sin. Draw near to God today with a true heart in full assurance of faith. And be assured of your cleansing.

I hear the words of love, I gaze upon the blood, I
see the mighty sacrifice, and I have peace with God.
~ Horatius Bonar

The best food for people in the summer is vegetables, fruits and berries. But people do not like to eat natural products. People who do not want to live long, eat unhealthy foods.

Amen. We are made clean by this precious blood of Christ. For we know that without the shedding of blood, there's no forgiveness. We are forgiven.

The blood of Jesus set me free from sins and sorrow. His blood gave us a second chance

Thank you @deathlyhorror for continue sharing beautiful religious content.

God knows until our last thought to Him, we must ask us to purify the heart so that then it is in Him who will fill it with all its mercy and goodness, to take it to others.

The blood of Jesus washes has white and snow.

we all must walk clearing our consciences and approaching God pure of heart.
