6. God calls you to come in fulness of faith.<br />

sure ground and abundant reason for it. And<br />
if you will but look up to Him, and what He<br />
has done in giving His Son to be your High<br />
Priest, and the blood of His Son to be your<br />
confidence; in opening the Holiest for you ; in<br />
giving the Holy Spirit to lead you in the living<br />
way of union with Jesus—surely you cannot<br />
doubt or fear. No, at once begin and say<br />
Whatever may appear dark or difficult, of this<br />
I am confident : my weakness cannot hinder<br />
me :<br />
I trust God, I trust Jesus, I trust the<br />
Blood, I trust the Holy Spirit : I shall surely<br />
enter in.<br />

<strong>Let</strong> the two be inseparably united. The blood<br />
is the sign that Jesus gave Himself wholly, His<br />

to trust and yield to the blood. The power of<br />
the blood is, it opened heaven and dwells there<br />
for ever: be sure, thine heart, sprinkled with<br />
the blood, rises into the heaven of God's love.<br />
Begin now and sing daily the song :<br />
