Here, then, brethren, is our security amidst all peril. The blood, the righteousness, the infinitely glorious person of Christ; these are our hiding-place, these are our covert, these are our stronghold. And blessed be God! the doors stand wide open; they are never shut, night nor day. The access is free for any, free for all, free for the greatest sinners. We are not only allowed, but we are invited; nay, we are commanded to approach, to enter, to enjoy the protection; or, as the words of the text express it, to sprinkle the blood on our souls.
James Hervey — Sermon VI, "The Means of Safety," on Hebrews 11:28, in The Works of the Rev. James Hervey, A.M. (Edinburgh: T. Nelson, 1839), p. 657
