Hebrews 10:22

FaithPurityPrayerGuilt and conscience

20 by the new and living way opened for us through the curtain of His body,

21 and since we have a great priest over the house of God,

let us draw near with a sincere heart in full assurance of faith, having our hearts sprinkled to cleanse us from a guilty conscience and our bodies washed with pure water.

23 Let us hold resolutely to the hope we profess, for He who promised is faithful.

24 And let us consider how to spur one another on to love and good deeds.
