1 João 1:7

Sproul - Truth is not only that which we believe intellectually, it is also that which we believe practically. That is to say, we are to act truthfully. We do not believe God is light if we do not walk in the light of His holiness. But when we endeavor to live holy lives we are assured that the blood of Christ cleanses us from all sin (1 John 1:7). Our efforts do not merit this cleansing; rather, they assure us that this cleansing has already taken place and that we belong to the One whose blood cleanses us from all sin. John
