“it was the blood of Christ which had purged their conscience "from dead works to serve the living God." They had believed in Jesus, and now their consciences were purged by that blood. That shows us, that however religious a man may be, though he may even act up to the Word of God as far as he knows it, short of believing in Jesus; yet it is all" dead works," unless his conscience has been purged. May every one of us understand the truth, that unless the blood be on the conscience, and unless there is simple and single trust in it, the conscience is still unpurged. and all the works of religiousness are works, if I may so say, done in Egypt in the darkness of death, and are not accepted of God. There must be the coming out of Egypt, and this is what the pilgrims were dressed for. God called them to come out of Egypt, and here they were, ready to start: they were to go and serve God under another sky, in another land, altogether upon another footing. So it is with believers: they must begin by obeying the command, "Come out and be ye separate.”

“The notion that where one is from can be understood using what remains of that place opens up a highly sensitive and rich terrain that can help unpack belonging, especially if that place has now been rendered inaccessible by national borders.”

“Jb tujse mohobbat ka zikr hua, To meri khamoshiya puri mehfil me goonj uthi... Teri yaad me kuch arz krne lagge, To shabdo me peero ke kavitaaye goonj uthi... Teri ankho ki khoobsoorti ka varnan kiya, To meri namm palko se ansuoo ki bochaar goonj uthi.... Log to boht the mehfil me, Par dil ki gehraai me akelepann ki lehr goonj uthi.... Ek shaks ne bade addab se pucha, "Aaj wo aapke saath kyu nahi?" Humne bhi bade aadar se jwaab diya, Humare rishte me mahzabb ki pareshaniyaa goonj uthi... Jb tujse mohobbat ka zikr hua, To taliyoo ke swarr se puri mehfil hi goonj uthi...”

“Now, this separation from the world is accomplished only by the blood of Jesus. It was when the Israelites were saved by the blood of the lamb that they were separated from Egypt—not before. All the other miracles did nothing for them in that respect—they never brought them out of Egypt . They were not to come out of Egypt before, but after the lamb was slain, and the blood sprinkled. It is only when you know the power of the blood of the Lamb of God that you are able to be separate from the world.”
