Heb 10:21-22 . . Since we have a high priest over the house of God, let us draw near to God with a sincere heart, in full assurance of faith, having our hearts sprinkled to cleanse us from a guilty conscience

The Greek word translated "guilty" is okay as far is it goes, but what it really means is "evil" which takes in a large variety of very bad things like calamitous, diseased, derelict, vicious, mischievous, and/or malicious.

The wickedness of one's conscience is technically different than the wickedness of one's conduct. This point is touched upon a bit in Romans 2:15 where it's said:

"Their thoughts alternately accusing or else defending them"

That refers to the debating that goes on within one's mind; where human nature does it's level best to either fabricate an excuse for one's conduct, or else rationalizing it so as to moderate any and all guilt attached to it.

Sprinkling was a common ritual in the Old Testament-- sometimes with water, sometimes with oil, and sometimes with blood --for example: Ex 29:16, Ex 29:21, Lev 14:7, Lev 14 16, and Num 8:7, et al.

Sprinkling typically serves to de-contaminate someone or some thing in order to make it suitable for God's purposes. Old Testament sprinklings were good for only just the moment; requiring additional sprinklings from time to time; but the sprinkling spoken of in Heb 10:21-22 is a one-time sprinkling that never needs repeating.

"We have been sanctified through the offering of the body of Jesus Christ once for all. And every priest stands daily ministering and offering time after time the same sacrifices, which can never take away sins; but he, having offered one sacrifice for sins for all time, sat down at the right hand of God, waiting from that time onward until his enemies be made a footstool for His feet. For by one offering he has perfected for all time those who are sanctified." (Heb 10:10-14)
