My problem is that I came across the Hebrews 10:26-31 and had thoughts that christ blood is unclean. So now I have thoughts that i regarded Christ's blood unclean and it will not be forgiven me. I am concerned what if I did that. I want Jesus in my life and don't want to be outside of God's grace. So i worry if I regarded such a thing. Do you have a advice, what do you think about it?
HI Clara, I do not know what you mean by regarding the Lords blood unclean, can you be more specific? have you received the Lord as your savior? if so you know we stumble, but God want let his children live in sin, he chastise those that are his, read Hebrews 12:7-13. That's what that verse would mean to you. Now if you're not a child of God and you die in you sins then that verse means judgment for them. but you can except Christ as you savior and turn from that sin grow in grace and he will remove that sin from your life.
Our minds have suffered corruption by our sin nature inherited from the fall of Adam. Our brains are capable of thinking any possible vile thought or imagination. We are also open to suggestion by Satan himself. This in itself is not cause for you to despair of an evil thought in passing.
The danger in the passage you referred to is regarding a person who refuses the salvation purchased by the precious blood of Jesus Christ and then presumes to obtain a salvation based on the old covenant of now meaningless sacrifices and works. Such a person can only look forward to judgement and fiery indignation.
You apparently are not of this persuasion being that you express your concern to have a relationship with Jesus Christ. We all need a renewal of our mind as Romans 12 calls us to:
"I beseech you therefore, brethren, by the mercies of God, that ye present your bodies a living sacrifice, holy, acceptable unto God, which is your reasonable service. And be not conformed to this world: but be ye transformed by the renewing of your mind, that ye may prove what is that good, and acceptable, and perfect, will of God."
This only comes by abiding in Jesus Christ, and "Casting down imaginations, and every high thing that exalteth itself against the knowledge of God, and bringing into captivity every thought to the obedience of Christ;" ( 1 Corinthians 10:5)
