Exploring Hebrews 12, Pastor Daniel Batarseh contrasts the blood of Abel with the blood of Jesus. While Abel's blood cried for vengeance, Jesus' blood speaks a 'better word' of mercy, cleansing, and bold access to God.

• 1Jesus' blood is superior to Abel's because it offers mercy instead of demanding vengeance for sin.
• 2The blood of Christ is the only remedy for the wrath of God, which is the greatest problem facing every human being.
• 3The blood of Jesus is an active, speaking force that continuously advocates for the believer before the Father.
• 4True spiritual confidence comes from the blood-bought righteousness of Christ, not from personal performance or rituals.
