Hebrews 12: 22-24

‘You have come to thousands upon thousands of angels in joyful assembly, to the church of the firstborn, whose names are written in heaven. You have come to God, the Judge of all, to the spirits of the righteous made perfect, to Jesus the mediator of a new covenant, and to the sprinkled blood that speaks a better word than the blood of Abel.’

The blood of Abel cried a curse, vengeance (Genesis 4:10,11). Jesus, as he shed his blood, cried “Father, forgive them” (Luke 23:34). Curse or forgive? I know which is the better word. I know which one I prefer.
