By The Blood Of Jesus

Most Protestants profess that their salvation
is by faith alone in Christ alone
and then like most of their denominations
divide their trust for salvation
between Christ and themselves,
trusting in their efforts to repent to save them
rather than placing all their trust on Christ
and just repenting because
God said to repent.
Indeed that is typical of this world,
to profess one thing and do another.
But anyone who hopes to go to heaven
rather than to hell
will have to have all their trust on Christ,
just as the parable Effulgence plainly shows:
The woman saw light,
And nothing else,
Everywhere
As she walked along with the man who held her hand.
His voice,
She knew his voice!
With her fingers she pressed down--
There was the wound in his hand!
Then he called her by name,
And gave her such peace.
She well knew that He who held her hand
Was her Life, her Righteousness, her Hope,
He who had taken her place upon the cross
So that now instead of being in the center of earth in hell
She was in heaven in the temple of God approaching her Father.
Therefore, brothers,
since we have confidence to enter the Most Holy Place
by the blood of Jesus,
by a new and living way opened for us
through the curtain, that is, his body,
and since we have a great priest over the house of God,
let us draw near to God with a sincere heart
in full assurance of faith,
having our hearts sprinkled
to cleanse us from a guilty conscience
and having our bodies washed with pure water.
Let us hold unswervingly to the hope we profess,
for he who promised is faithful.
(Hebrews 10:19-23 NIV)
But you have come to Mount Zion,
to the heavenly Jerusalem,
the city of the living God.
You have come to thousands upon thousands of angels
in joyful assembly,
to the church of the firstborn,
whose names are written in heaven.
You have come to God,
the judge of all men,
to the spirits of righteous men made perfect,
to Jesus the mediator of a new covenant,
and to the sprinkled blood
that speaks a better word than the blood of Abel.
Therefore, since we are receiving a kingdom
that cannot be shaken,
let us be thankful,
and so worship God acceptably with reverence and awe,
for our "God is a consuming fire."
(Hebrews 12:22-24, 28-29)
