“But must I not have faith in it? Must my faith not value it rightly before I can lay claim to it?” Surely your faith must set a right value on it. But what is that right value of faith? It is seeing that God looks on it as having put away all sin. You make faith consist in the feeling of it. Beyond your feeling it you cannot believe you have faith at all. This is wrong. You must turn your eyes in another direction. Look at God's thoughts of the blood. There faith always looks, and till you look there too, you will never have perfect peace. God sees the blood, therefore we are safe. God sets a right value on the blood—we cannot; but we can rest in God's thoughts about it and have peace.
