The Holiest of All by Andrew Murray eBook & audio book

Holiest of All: Meditations on the Book of Hebrews "What teaching is needed to give health and vigor to the Christian life in order that, through all adverse circumstances, it may hold fast from the beginning, firm until the end? The teaching of the epistle of Hebrews is the divine answer to [this question]. In every possible way, it sets before us the truth that only the full and perfect knowledge of who Christ is and what He does for us can bring us to a full and perfect Christian life."

conscience, <strong>of</strong> the sprinkling <strong>of</strong> the heart and the sanctifying<br />

the people. Through that blood Christ entered once for all into<br />

heaven ; through that blood we enter too, and have our home in<br />

the <strong>Holiest</strong> <strong>of</strong> <strong>All</strong>. As the Holy Spirit from heaven, dwelling<br />

in us, imparts to us the boldness the blood gives, and the love<br />

into which it opens the way, our whole inner being will be<br />

brought under its power, and the cleansing <strong>of</strong> the blood in its<br />

full extent be our experience.<br />

7. "As in heaven so in earth." Thou hast more interest than thou thinkest in knowing what<br />

the blood hath wrought in heaven. As thou enterest <strong>by</strong> the Spirit into its power there, will thy<br />

faith receiue its power within thee.<br />

2. <strong>The</strong> inner sanctuary— deeper, nearer in to God. He that seeks after this will have the inner<br />

sanctuary opened within Himself. <strong>The</strong> inner life, the law within the heart, in the inward parts, a<br />

deepening sense <strong>of</strong> the life <strong>of</strong> God in the soul will be given to such a one.<br />

3. <strong>The</strong>re are in Scripture two aspects <strong>of</strong> Christ's death—that <strong>of</strong> atonement and that <strong>of</strong> fellowship.<br />

He died for us, for our sin, that we might not die. What our Substitute did in bearing the<br />

curse <strong>of</strong> sin, we cannot do, we need not do. He died to sin, and we died with Him and In Him.<br />

<strong>The</strong> blood is the divine expression for the former aspect : His own blood is the power and the<br />

worth <strong>of</strong> His death taken up and presented and for ever preserved in its energy and action before<br />

God. <strong>The</strong> sprinkling with the blood includes the transition to the second aspect. As the blood,<br />

as a heavenly reality, through the Holy Spirit works in us, the very disposition that animated<br />

Jesus in the shedding <strong>of</strong> it will be imparted to us.<br />

4. Christ can bring us into the <strong>Holiest</strong> in no other way than He went in Himself, through His<br />

own blood. Oh, seek to know the power <strong>of</strong> Christ's blood.
