Hebrews:10:1-18
Seeker Overlay ON
*
For the law having a shadow of the good [
things ]
to come ,
not the very image of the things ,
can never with the same sacrifices year by year ,
which they offer continually ,
make perfect those who draw near .
*
Or else would they not have ceased to be offered ?
Because the worshipers ,
having been once cleansed ,
would have had no more consciousness of sins .
*
But in those [
sacrifices ]
there is a remembrance made of sins year by year .
*
For it is impossible that the blood of bulls and goats should take away sins .
*
Therefore when he comes into the world ,
he says ,
Sacrifice and offering you did not want ,
But you prepared a body for me ;
*
In whole burnt offerings and [
sacrifices ]
for sin you had no pleasure :
*
Then I said ,
Look ,
I have come (
In the roll of the book it is written of me )
To do your will ,
O God .
*
Saying above ,
Sacrifices and offerings and whole burnt offerings and [
sacrifices ]
for sin you did not want ,
neither had pleasure in them (
which are offered according to the law ),
*
then he has said ,
Look ,
I have come to do your will .
He takes away the first ,
that he may establish the second .
*
By whose will ,
we have been sanctified through the offering of the body of Jesus Christ once for all .
*
And every priest indeed stands day by day ministering and offering oftentimes the same sacrifices ,
the which can never take away sins :
*
but he ,
when he had offered one sacrifice for sins forever ,
sat down at the right hand of God ;
*
from now on expecting until his enemies are made the footstool of his feet .
*
For by one offering he has perfected forever those who are sanctified .
*
And the Holy Spirit also bears witness to us ;
for after he has said ,
*
This is the covenant that I will make with them After those days ,
says the Lord :
I will put my laws on their heart ,
And on their mind also I will write them ; [
then he says ,]
*
And their sins and their iniquities I will remember no more .
*
Now where remission of these is ,
there is no more offering for sin .
