"how much more will the blood of Christ, who through the eternal Spirit offered Himself without blemish to God, cleanse your conscience from dead works to serve the living God?"
The Christians, harried by a bombardment of traditionalist, were in danger of being drawn back into a system of works rather than the grace of Jesus. No longer was His grace and mercy enough, but saddled by guilt and a conscience that brought accusation and condemnation, the Spirit reminds of how Christ was offered for us, His blood cleansing us from the lies of the world. Today, we may be tempted to forego His freedom and instead choosing with going through the motions, rather than the sweet communion He desires to have with us. Today, choose life in and with Christ.
