Hebrews 12:26-29

26 Whose voice then shook the earth: but now he hath promised, saying, Yet once more I shake not the earth only, but also heaven.
27 And this word, Yet once more, signifieth the removing of those things that are shaken, as of things that are made, that those things which cannot be shaken may remain.
28 Wherefore we receiving a kingdom which cannot be moved, let us have grace, whereby we may serve God acceptably with reverence and godly fear:
29For our God is a consuming fire.

This means that those things that are not man made can be shaken. So it means that debts which are not made by God can also be shaken out of our lives. This means that sickness, lonliness, and whatever bad things can be shaken out of our lives. God will consume those things which are not made by God like illness and proverty like fire.

Hebrews 12:18-21

For you have not come unto the mount which might be touched and that burned with fire, nor unto blackness and darkness and tempest, and the sound of a trumpet and the voice of words, which voice those who heard entreated that the Word should not be spoken to them any more.

For you have not come, (For they could not endure that which was commanded, that: "if even so much as a beast touch the mountain, it shall be stoned or thrust through with a dart."
And so terrible was the sight that Moses said, "I fear exceedingly and quake.")

First of all, what happens when there is fire? Certainly the surroundings will be bright and well lit right? But guess what? At Mount Sinai (represents My Thorn), when the law was given, instead of lighting up the place, there was blackness and darkest and tempest. Just as it is so, if we were to receive the law into our life, darkness and blackness shall be received into ourselves. For the law will only show how incapable we are to obey them. Even Moses, the one who is intimate with God whom He has chosen to speak face to face was exceedingly afraid by the sight.

Genesis 4:9-11

9 And the LORD said unto Cain, Where is Abel your brother? And he said, I know not: Am I my brother's keeper?
10 And he said, What has your done? the voice of your brother's blood cries unto me from the ground.
11And now art you cursed from the earth, which have opened her mouth to receive your brother's blood from your hand;

The blood cries of avenge.

Ephesians 1:7

in Whom we have redemption through His blood, the forgiveness of sins, according to the riches of His grace,

Notice here that through Jesus's blood, we have the forgiveness of sins. His blood has redemption power. Its unlike the blood that speak forth of vengeance, but the blood that speaks of forgiveness of sins.

Luke 7:36-50

A Sinful Woman Forgiven

36 Then one of the Pharisees asked Him to eat with him. And He went to the Pharisee’s house, and sat down to eat. 37 And behold, a woman in the city who was a sinner, when she knew that Jesus sat at the table in the Pharisee’s house, brought an alabaster flask of fragrant oil, 38 and stood at His feet behind Him weeping; and she began to wash His feet with her tears, and wiped them with the hair of her head; and she kissed His feet and anointed them with the fragrant oil. 39 Now when the Pharisee who had invited Him saw this, he spoke to himself, saying, “This Man, if He were a prophet, would know who and what manner of woman this is who is touching Him, for she is a sinner.”

40 And Jesus answered and said to him, “Simon, I have something to say to you.” So he said, “Teacher, say it.” 41 “There was a certain creditor who had two debtors. One owed five hundred denarii, and the other fifty. 42 And when they had nothing with which to repay, he freely forgave them both. Tell Me, therefore, which of them will love him more?” 43 Simon answered and said, “I suppose the one whom he forgave more.”

And He said to him, “You have rightly judged.” 44 Then He turned to the woman and said to Simon, “Do you see this woman? I entered your house; you gave Me no water for My feet, but she has washed My feet with her tears and wiped them with the hair of her head. 45 You gave Me no kiss, but this woman has not ceased to kiss My feet since the time I came in. 46 You did not anoint My head with oil, but this woman has anointed My feet with fragrant oil. 47 Therefore I say to you, her sins, which are many, are forgiven, for she loved much. But to whom little is forgiven, the same loves little.”

48 Then He said to her, “Your sins are forgiven.” 49 And those who sat at the table with Him began to say to themselves, “Who is this who even forgives sins?”

50 Then He said to the woman, “Your faith has saved you. Go in peace.”

Note that this woman mentioned here is probably a prostitute and when she came in, Simon was biased towards her. Those who goes by the law judges people. After telling the story, it is very clear that the reason why she did that was out of her heart of gratitude for Jesus. A denarii is one day wages, so the fragrance probably costs her more than 1 year wages. I believed when she does that, she experiences the wholesome retrieval of her soul that is given off due to her occupation. The reason she cried, is knowing that she had been forgiven much. Out of being touched by His love for Her.

Note that even though He knew that she knew that she have been forgiven much, He still said, "Your sins are forgiven". This means we all need the constant reminder that we are forgiven from our sins. His blood has cleanse us for all sins. Past, present and future sins. For God is one who lives out of time for He create time. If God is in time, then time is greater that God but the truth is that God is greater than time therefore He lives outside time.

Adolph Saphir said, "The forgiveness of sin is not merely the beginning, but it is the foundation, the source, it is, so to say, the mother of all divine blessings."
