The Rent Veil
The rending of the veil marked four things:
That Judaism of the past was over;
That man had consummated his guilt;
That God had disclosed Himself in perfect grace;
-
And that the sins of the believer were swept away by the same stroke forever.
The veil being rent, I see the holiness of God; but the very stroke that rent the veil, and thus unveiled the holiness of God, has put away the sin that hindered me from standing in the presence of that holiness; God coming out to me, and I enabled to go with Christ into the rest of His holiness. The more the eye of God scrutinizes and searches us, the more it brings out the blessed truth that the blood of Jesus Christ cleanseth from all sin. The light shews the whiteness of the robe that has been washed in the blood of the Lamb.
