The Rent Veil

It is one thing to know these things doctrinally, but it is another to know them in our own experience—to be consciously inside the veil where all the perfectness of that peace and love is realized. All believers are entitled to it, but a careless walk, the practice of unjudged evil, or not abstaining from fleshly lusts which war against the soul, will hinder our enjoyment of the Lord and every privilege He has graciously given us. To be where Jesus now is with worshipping and thankful hearts is what should characterize the saints of God. Happy indeed are those who know the sweetness and blessedness of having boldness to enter into the holiest by the blood of Jesus.
3. Consecration, or the blood of Christ on us is another aspect of the blood that we may connect with those that we have already noticed. We read of "having our hearts sprinkled from an evil conscience." This is the blood applied to us, brought to bear on the conscience to purge it, and also to mark us out for God. Thus we are sanctified, or set apart, to God. "Jesus also, that He might sanctify the people with His own blood, suffered without the gate." Heb. 13:12.
The priests of old, having been first washed with water, were afterward sprinkled with blood. The blood of the sacrifice was not only shed for them, and carried into the holiest of all and sprinkled on and before the mercy seat, but it was sprinkled on them. The blood (and the oil also) was sprinkled on parts of their bodies so as to set forth with remarkable significance how they were set apart for God.
They were to hearken to God, to receive communications from Him, to hear His voice and not the voice of a stranger. Hence the tips of their right ears were sprinkled with blood. They were to minister obediently to His Word, and do His will. Therefore we read that the thumbs of their right hands were also sprinkled with blood.
They were also to walk in His ways, and not in evil ways, all these steps being ordered by Him. They were thus to be detached from every unclean path, and walk in paths suited to His holy name. This, no doubt, is why the great toes of their right feet were also sprinkled with blood. (Lev. 8.)
How little we really know of the power of the precious blood of Christ practically setting us apart for God. Many who thank God with their whole hearts for the blood of Jesus giving remission of sins have no idea of the liberty they have of now being in the presence of God inside the veil. It is because Jesus, our forerunner, has gone into heaven itself by His own blood. There may be comparatively few of God's children who live and walk day by day as those who consciously have the blood on them, and the Holy Spirit in them. When these wondrous truths are realized as facts, what practical separation and devotedness to the Lord there must be. Who then can do otherwise than wait for God's Son from heaven?
