We know of nothing higher than the word of God, and he whose fine
feelings are shocked by Bible language, would find heaven not
sufficiently aesthetic. May not such be said to count the blood of the
covenant an unholy thing? When the destroyer is abroad, we shall be safe
who hide behind the blood. We rejoice in the blood of sprinkling, when
we believe there is wrath for the sinner. The giving God the lie, when
He declares He will punish His enemies, fits the mouth of him who is too
refined to speak of the precious blood of Jesus.
