How To Stand Before A Holy God And Survive 

Heb. 10:19 "...we have confidence to enter the Most Holy Place by the blood of Jesus."

The Most Holy Place was where the special presence of God dwelt. It was a terrifying place for this place would be a consuming fire against a sinner.  

But we sinners can have boldness and confidence to enter this very place. On what basis? On what grounds? 

Through our good works and good character? No! Good works and good character have their proper place but they should not be the ground and basis of one's confidence and boldness to enter God's Most Holy presence. 

God through the writer of Hebrews tells us here that it is on the grounds and basis of the "blood of Jesus" that a sinner can have boldness and confidence to enter God's Most Holy Presence.  

The blood has been shed, the price has been paid, now, a sinner can stand in the presence of God, counting on the value of the sacrifice that the Lord Jesus made on the cross of Calvary. The precious blood of Christ! A sinner can now dare the presence of God. 

My friend, be bold with the blood of Christ. Have faith in it. Pin your eternal destiny on it!
