blood-guilty or blood-earnest

Go back to an old blog with me for a moment…

Who among you fears the LORD and obeys the voice of his servant?    Isaiah 50:10 

Who is on the Lord’s side?  The hymn-writer echoes the call of Scripture…”Who?”  Will you be one of the ‘rebellious, neglectful, dull of hearing’ who shrink back?  Acts 20:26,27 

OR, will you be blood-earnest in rejoicing in what Christ has done and bear the fruit of righteousness that would bring the Father the glory due his name?  Will you be blood-earnest…striving to enter the Sabbath rest of the people of God.   Heb 4:11-13

Psalm 51:14 ‘Deliver me from bloodguiltiness, O God, O God of my salvation, and my tongue will sing aloud of your righteousness.’

 O LORD, open my lips!
