The Cleansing Blood

A sinful man stands before the tablets of God’s Law, seeing the stain of guilt revealed as in a mirror. In the center, he comes to the cross of Christ, reaching upward beneath falling drops of blood as his burden lies at the foot of Calvary. The final panel shows him cleansed, facing the law with open hands and a restored conscience.

The artwork presents the gospel in visual sequence: the commandments expose sin, but they cannot wash it away. Cleansing comes through the atoning blood of Jesus, received by faith and repentance. This subject is well suited for teaching on salvation, confession, sanctification, evangelism, and the contrast between condemnation under the law and redemption through Christ.
