Such detailed care to deal with uncleaness! The people had to be clean, the house had to be clean, the leaders had to be clean, and all through confession of sin and the blood sacrifice.
Our Heavenly Daddy (Abba!) has provided a way for us to enter boldly before the throne of grace. It is not on the basis of presumption or tradition or habit. It is solely by dint of the shed blood of Jesus. Conscious confession of unconfessed sins and acknowledgement of his sacrifice for those sins is a key to confidence in prayer.
The Anglican liturgy which encourages corporate confession of sin doesn't seem a bad idea to me.
