Hebrews 12:24
Have you come to the blood of sprinkling?
The question is not whether you have come to a knowledge of doctrine, or an observance of ceremonies, or to a certain form of experience, or that you go to church, or are religious, or that you meditate on some god...
...but have you come to the blood of Jesus? The blood of Jesus is the life of all vital godliness.
If you have truly come to Jesus, we know how you came—the Holy Spirit sweetly brought you there. You came to the blood of sprinkling with no merits of your own. Guilty, lost, and helpless, you came to take that blood, and that blood alone, as your everlasting hope.
You came to the cross of Christ, with a trembling and an aching heart; and oh! what a precious sound it was to you to hear the voice of the blood of Jesus!
The dropping of his blood is as the music of heaven to the penitent sons of earth. We are full of sin, but the Saviour bids us lift our eyes to him, and as we gaze upon his streaming wounds, each drop of blood, as it falls, cries, “It is finished; I have made an end of sin; I have brought in everlasting righteousness.”
Oh! sweet language of the precious blood of Jesus!
"By his stripes we are healed"...our debt is paid, our love is sealed in His love. Praise His Holy name...I once was lost but now am found...
