The blood that cries forgiveness

You have come to Jesus, the one who mediates the new covenant between God and people, and to the sprinkled blood, which graciously forgives instead of crying out for vengeance as the blood of Abel did. (Hebrews 12:24)

The blood of the second son of Adam cried out for revenge, the blood of the only Son of God cries out forgiveness. We need to hear the second cry louder than the first.

hi, i agree. I am wondering if you can answer a question for me? If Jesus' sacrifice was enough to redeem lost sinners who accept that sacrifice, why then does Jesus need to be forever interceding on our behalf to the Father?
