Answered in 12 sources
The Bible encourages believers to draw near to God with a true heart and full assurance of faith, as stated in Hebrews 10:22.
Hebrews 10:22 invites us to draw near to God with a true heart in full assurance of faith. This idea emphasizes not only the accessibility we have to God as His people but also the condition of our hearts as we approach Him. We are encouraged to approach God confidently because of the cleansing power of Christ's blood which sprinkles our hearts from an evil conscience. This draws a beautiful parallel to how a child might approach a loving parent, reminding us that we can boldly come to our Creator, not on our merits, but through the merits of Christ's sacrifice.
