nsb - Hebrews:10:1-18

nsb@Hebrews:10:1 @ The Law is a shadow of the good things to come. It is not the actual things. The continual yearly sacrifices can never make those who worship perfect.

nsb@Hebrews:10:2 @ If it could, it would cease to be offered. Once the worshipers were cleansed they would have no awareness of sin anymore.

nsb@Hebrews:10:3 @ These sacrifices are an annual reminder of sin.

nsb@Hebrews:10:4 @ It is not possible for the blood of bulls and of goats to take away sins.

nsb@Hebrews:10:5 @ When Christ came into the world he said: »Sacrifice and offering you did not desire, but you have prepared a body for me.

nsb@Hebrews:10:6 @ »You have no pleasure in burnt offerings and sacrifices for sin.

nsb@Hebrews:10:7 @ »Then I said: I have come in the scroll of the book. It is written about me, to do your will, O God.«

nsb@Hebrews:10:8 @ Then he said: »You did not want nor did you approve of sacrifice and offering and burnt offerings and offering for sin;« which are offered by the Law.

nsb@Hebrews:10:9 @ He also said: »I come to do your will, O God.« He takes away the first in order to establish the second.

nsb@Hebrews:10:10 @ We are sanctified by his »will« through the offering of the body of Jesus Christ once for all.

nsb@Hebrews:10:11 @ Every priest stands daily, serving and offering time after time the same sacrifices. Yet they can never take away sins.

nsb@Hebrews:10:12 @ But this man, after he had offered one sacrifice for sins forever, sat down at the right hand of God,

nsb@Hebrews:10:13 @ waiting until his enemies are placed as a stool for his feet.

nsb@Hebrews:10:14 @ With one offering he has perfected those who are sanctified forever.

nsb@Hebrews:10:15 @ The Holy Spirit also bears witness to us; for after that he said:

nsb@Hebrews:10:16 @ »This is the covenant that I will make with them after those days, says Jehovah; I will put my laws in their hearts, and in their minds will I write them. (Jeremiah strkjv@31:33)

nsb@Hebrews:10:17 @ »I will not remember their sins and unrighteousness.«

nsb@Hebrews:10:18 @ Where there is forgiveness for these, there is no more offering for sin.
