Hebrews:9:15-22

*
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 .
*
For where a testament is ,
there must also of necessity be the death of the testator .
*
For a testament is of force after men are dead :
otherwise it is of no strength at all while the testator liveth .
*
Whereupon neither the first testament was dedicated without blood .
*
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 ,
*
Saying ,
This is the blood of the testament which God hath enjoined unto you .
*
Moreover he sprinkled with blood both the tabernacle ,
and all the vessels of the ministry .
*
And almost all things are by the law purged with blood ;
and without shedding of blood is no remission .
