17. The blood of Jesus Christ has sanctified those that know it, for it is written, that it is made known by the Spirit of grace and is the blood of the covenant. If then I should use the peace which comes from the knowledge of grace, for any other purpose than for service unto God, my conscience would immediately have a certain fearful looking for of judgment and fiery indignation (ver. 27), for the Lord will judge His people (ver. 30), and when (1 Cor. 11:3232But when we are judged, we are chastened of the Lord, that we should not be condemned with the world. (1 Corinthians 11:32)) we are judged, we are chastened of the Lord, that we should not be condemned with the world. As it is (ver. 31) a fearful thing to fall into the hands of the living God, let us see that we use our ease of conscience for service to God, not for self-advancement in this world; for of what " punishment, suppose ye, shall he be thought worthy, who hath trodden under foot the Son of God, and hath counted the blood of the covenant, wherewith he was sanctified, an unholy thing, and hath done despite unto the Spirit of grace?" (Ver. 29.)
