14. With one sacrifice he made perfect forever those who are being made holy.
15. The Holy Spirit also tells us about this. First he says:
16. “In the future I will make this agreementwith the people of Israel, says the Lord.I will put my teachings in their hearts.And I will write them on their minds.” Jeremiah 31:33
17. Then he says:“Their sins and the evil things they do—I will not remember anymore.” Jeremiah 31:34
18. And when these have been forgiven, there is no more need for a sacrifice for sins.
19. So, brothers, we are completely free to enter the Most Holy Place. We can do this without fear because of the blood of Jesus’ death.
20. We can enter through a new way that Jesus opened for us. It is a living way. It leads through the curtain—Christ’s body.
21. And we have a great priest over God’s house.
22. So let us come near to God with a sincere heart and a sure faith. We have been cleansed and made free from feelings of guilt. And our bodies have been washed with pure water.
23. Let us hold firmly to the hope that we have confessed. We can trust God to do what he promised.
24. Let us think about each other and help each other to show love and do good deeds.
25. You should not stay away from the church meetings, as some are doing. But you should meet together and encourage each other. Do this even more as you see the Day coming.
