The Agony Philosophers have measur’d mountains, Fathom’d the depths of the seas, of states, and kings, Walk’d with a staff to heav’n, and traced fountains: But there are two vast, spacious things, The which to measure it doth more behove: Yet few there are that sound them; Sin and Love. Who would know Sin, let him repair Unto mount Olivet; there shall he see A man so wrung with pains, that all his hair, His skin, his garments bloody be. Sin is that press and vice, which forceth pain To hunt his cruel food through ev’ry vein. Who knows not Love, let him assay And taste that juice, which on the cross a pike Did set again abroach, then let him say If ever he did taste the like. Love is that liquor sweet and most divine, Which my God feels as blood; but I, as wine.

~George Herbert (1593-1633)

“The blood of Christ nourishes and feeds all living things,” my friend, iconographer priest William Hart McNichols told me during a recent conversation about Julian of Norwich, “just like our earthly mothers feed and sustain us in the womb.” Who but a mother, Julian asks, would break herself open and pour herself out for love of her children?

Jewish and Gentile Believers United in Christ

11 Wherefore remember, that ye being in time past Gentiles in the flesh, who are called Uncircumcision by that which is called the Circumcision in the flesh made by hands;

12 That at that time ye were without Christ, being aliens from the commonwealth of Israel, and strangers from the covenants of promise, having no hope, and without God in the world:

13 But now in Christ Jesus ye who sometimes were far off are made nigh by the blood of Christ. — Ephesians 2:11-13 | King James Version (KJV) The King James Version Bible is in the public domain. Cross References: Isaiah 14:1; Isaiah 57:19; Ezekiel 47:22; John 10:16; Romans 2:26-27; Romans 2:28; 1 Corinthians 12:13; Ephesians 1:1

It’s far easier to give in to sin than to confess them because most of the time we don’t even see the wrong. As Charles Spurgeon said, “It is easy to commit sin but hard to confess it... Even when sin stares [us] in the face, it still pleads innocence.”

Some sins are so heinous that we may simply be ashamed to talk about them to someone else — but even in these cases, there is hope. As Charles Spurgeon wrote, "There may be some sins of which a man cannot speak, but there is no sin which the blood of Christ cannot wash away."

Psalm 32:5 gives us the best example of how to deal with sin: “I acknowledged my sin to You, And I did not hide my guilt; I said, ‘I will confess my wrongdoings to the Lord’; And You forgave the guilt of my sin.”

Beware of being afraid, or ashamed, of sin. I’ll finish this with the words of a 17-century Puritan, William Gurnall:

If Satan continues to hound you, call in help and do not listen to the devil’s counsel to the contrary. The very strength of some temptations lies in trying to keep them hidden. Telling a trusted, godly friend of your struggles often brings relief. Satan knows this too well, so in order more freely to rifle the soul of its peace and comfort, he frightens it into silence. “Oh, my,” Satan says, “if your friends knew such a thing of you, they would cast you off. You had better hope they never find out!” He has kept many a poor soul in misery by swearing it to secrecy. You lose two blessings by keeping the devil’s secret – the counsel of your fellow brethren, and their prayers. And what a serious loss this is!

'with blood almost all things are cleansed'

Showers of blood from the wounds of a crucified Jesus rain down upon a gathering of naked, sinful followers in this 17th century print from the Rijksmuseum. It was made by an unknown artist in the Netherlands.
