OCTOBER 18

MORNING
One of the soldiers with a spear pierced
his side, and forthwith came there
out blood and water.
EHOLD the blood of the covenant,
which the LORD hath made with you.--The
life of the flesh is in the blood:
and I have given it to you upon the altar
to make an atonement for your souls.--For
it is not possible that the blood of bulls
and of goats should take away sins.
Jesus said unto them, This is my
blood of the new testament, which is
shed for many.--By his own blood he
entered in once into the holy place,
having obtained eternal redemption for
us.--Peace through the blood of his
cross.
Ye know that ye were not redeemed
with corruptible things, as silver and
gold, . . . but with the precious blood of
Christ, as of a lamb without blemish
and without spot: . . . manifest in these
last times for you.
Then will I sprinkle clean water upon
you, and ye shall be clean: . . . from all
your idols, will I cleanse you.--Let us
draw near with a true heart in full
assurance of faith, having our hearts
sprinkled from an evil conscience.

EVENING
Amen.
MEN: the LORD God . . . say so
too.--He who blesseth himself in
the earth shall bless himself in the God
of truth [Heb. The Amen]; and he that
sweareth in the earth shall swear by the God
of truth [The Amen].
When God made promise to Abraham,
because he could swear by no greater, he
sware by himself.--For men verily swear
by the greater: and an oath for confirmation
is to them an end of all strife.
Wherein God, willing more abundantly
to shew unto the heirs of promise the
immutability of his counsel, confirmed
it by an oath: that by two immutable
things, in which it was impossible for
God to lie, we might have a strong consolation,
who have fled for refuge to lay
hold upon the hope set before us.
These things saith the Amen, the
faithful and true witness.--For all the
promises of God in him are yea, and in
him Amen, unto the glory of God by us.
Blessed be the LORD God, the God of
Israel, who only doeth wondrous things.
And blessed be his glorious name for
ever. Amen, and Amen.
