Billy Graham Devotions 6 February 2020 – The Cleansing Power of Christ
TODAY’S TOPIC: THE CLEANSING POWER OF CHRIST
SCRIPTURE: For if the blood of bulls and of goats . . . sanctifieth to the purifying of the flesh; how much more shall the blood of Christ, . . . purge your conscience from dead works to serve the living God? — Hebrews 9:13,14
TODAY’S MESSAGE: To have a guilty conscience is an experience. Psychologists may define it as a guilt complex and may seek to rationalize away the sense of guilt; but once this has been awakened through the application of the law of God, no explanation will quiet the insistent voice of conscience.
Many a criminal has finally given himself over to the authorities because the accusations of a guilty conscience were worse than prison bars. The Bible teaches that Christ cleanses the conscience.
To have a guilty conscience cleansed and to be free from its constant accusation is an experience, but it is not the cleansing of the conscience that saves you; it is faith in Christ that saves, and a cleansed conscience is the result of having come into the right relationship with God.
Why does it seem like some people don’t have a conscience? Read Billy Graham’s answer.
