Accusation by conscience

Hebrews 9:13-14                    New English Translation

13 For if the blood of goats and bulls and the ashes of a young cow sprinkled on those who are defiled consecrated them and provided ritual purity, 14 how much more will the blood of Christ, who through the eternal Spirit offered himself without blemish to God, purify our consciences from dead works to worship the living God.

 

Accusations by the conscience are answered by the Blood of Jesus

Christ through the spirit cleanses our conscience from dead works

To serve the living God in thankfulness for His mercy

He delivered us from the law in Grace through faith

 

My conscience needs cleansing day in and day out

I cannot depend on it for it may be polluted and defiled

Is this where the wandering starts when I am overdoing?

Depending on my works as indifference grows and smiles

 

Is it not such inseparable that conscience and intuition be?

The cleansing effects both and simultaneous and routinely

That completeness in “our” temple as we serve God our Master

All parts need to be acceptable being prepared for Eternity
