Judges 1:1-2:5; Isaiah 21:1-22:14; 1 Corinthians 1:1-31

The blood of Jesus Christ his Son cleanseth us from all sin. 1 John 1:7b

Martin Luther recorded a dream that Satan came and told him he could never get to Heaven because he was such a dreadful sinner. “Have you a list of my sins?” Luther asked. “Yes,” said Satan and brought a long list of failures. Twice Luther asked if there were more and Satan brought him a long list. Again, Luther asked if there were any more. “That is all,” Satan said. “Then” cried Luther, “write now across them all ‘the blood of Jesus Christ his Son cleanseth us from all sin (1 John 1:7).’” And Satan left! Have you been washed in the blood of Jesus Christ? —W. Ross Rainey

Have you been to Jesus for the cleansing power?
Are you washed in the blood of the Lamb? —Elisha A. Hoffman
