Bible. Hebrews
58:009:011 But Christ being come an high priest of good things to come,
by a greater and more perfect tabernacle, not made with hands,
that is to say, not of this building;
58:009:012 Neither by the blood of goats and calves, but by his own blood
he entered in once into the holy place, having obtained
eternal redemption for us.
58:009:013 For if the blood of bulls and of goats, and the ashes of an
heifer sprinkling the unclean, sanctifieth to the purifying of
the flesh:
58:009:014 How much more shall the blood of Christ, who through the
eternal Spirit offered himself without spot to God, purge your
conscience from dead works to serve the living God?
58:009:015 And for this cause he is the mediator of the new testament,
that by means of death, for the redemption of the
transgressions that were under the first testament, they which
are called might receive the promise of eternal inheritance.
58:009:016 For where a testament is, there must also of necessity be the
death of the testator.
58:009:017 For a testament is of force after men are dead: otherwise it
is of no strength at all while the testator liveth.
58:009:018 Whereupon neither the first testament was dedicated without
blood.
58:009:019 For when Moses had spoken every precept to all the people
according to the law, he took the blood of calves and of
goats, with water, and scarlet wool, and hyssop, and sprinkled
both the book, and all the people,
58:009:020 Saying, This is the blood of the testament which God hath
enjoined unto you.
58:009:021 Moreover he sprinkled with blood both the tabernacle, and all
the vessels of the ministry.
58:009:022 And almost all things are by the law purged with blood; and
without shedding of blood is no remission.
58:009:023 It was therefore necessary that the patterns of things in the
heavens should be purified with these; but the heavenly things
themselves with better sacrifices than these.
58:009:024 For Christ is not entered into the holy places made with
hands, which are the figures of the true; but into heaven
itself, now to appear in the presence of God for us:
58:009:025 Nor yet that he should offer himself often, as the high priest
entereth into the holy place every year with blood of others;
58:009:026 For then must he often have suffered since the foundation of
the world: but now once in the end of the world hath he
appeared to put away sin by the sacrifice of himself.
58:009:027 And as it is appointed unto men once to die, but after this
the judgment:
58:009:028 So Christ was once offered to bear the sins of many; and unto
them that look for him shall he appear the second time without
sin unto salvation.
