The Blood Part 27

27. The blood of Jesus Christ is that which alone cleanses our robes, and will give entrance to the glory of the temple. As it is written, " They have washed their robes, and made them white in the blood of the Lamb. Therefore are they before the throne of God, and serve him day and night in his temple: and he that sitteth on the throne shall dwell among them. They shall hunger no more, neither thirst any more; neither shall the sun light on them, nor any heat," &c. (Rev. 7:14-16¹⁴And I said unto him, Sir, thou knowest. And he said to me, These are they which came out of great tribulation, and have washed their robes, and made them white in the blood of the Lamb. ¹⁵Therefore are they before the throne of God, and serve him day and night in his temple: and he that sitteth on the throne shall dwell among them. ¹⁶They shall hunger no more, neither thirst any more; neither shall the sun light on them, nor any heat. (Revelation 7:14‑16).) Observe, the entire and sole cleansing of the robes is by the blood of Jesus. In some places they find the finer kinds of lace very difficult to cleanse; their secret of cleansing is to wash them in bullock's blood, and then put them into running water. So the saints' robes are washed in blood-but it is the blood of God's Lamb applied by the living power of the Holy Ghost through faith.
