The blood of Jesus. T/te life is the blood. As the value
of this life, so the value of the blood. In Christ there was the
life of God
; infinite as God is the worth and the power of that

him that had the power of it. Therefore it was, that in the

entered heaven ; and that that blood is now for ever in heaven,
in the same place of honour as God the Judge of all, and Jesus
the Mediator (xii. 24). It is this blood, now in heaven before

unto death. God points you to it and asks you to believe in
the divine satisfaction it gives to Him, in its omnipotent energy,
in its everlasting sufficiency. Oh, will you not this day believe
that that blood gives you, sinful and feeble as you are, liberty,
confidence, boldness to draw nigh, to enter the very Holiest ?
Yes, believe it, that the blood and the blood alone, brings you
into the very presence, into the living and abiding fellowship
the everlasting God. And let your response to God's message
