Apart from Christ Jesus the HolySpirit is a consuming fire.<p>This warning was directed to Jewish believers who were falling back into Judaism and `trodding the blood of Christ underfoot`.<p>We are saved by GraceThroughFaith. Turning from Grace to works whether of Jewish tradition or Christian tradition is an affront to Christ Jesus. <p> Believers are required to believe in the total efficacy of the blood of Christ for their standing. Anything else represents unbelief and blasphemy.
