What does it mean to be holy by the blood of Christ?

Answered in 1 source

To be holy by the blood of Christ means to be set apart as righteous and cleansed from sin through faith in Him.

Hebrews 10 explains that the sacrifices of the Old Covenant could not make anyone truly holy. In contrast, Christ's sacrifice cleanses believers and makes them righteous before God. By faith, we partake in this holiness, not through physical acts but through the spiritual reality of believing in Him. Christ's blood represents the substitute that exhausted God’s justice for our sins, making those who trust in Him holy. This miracle of grace transforms our standing before God from unclean to holy, fulfilling the need for true atonement and assurance of salvation.
