OUR FATHER WHO SECURED US FOREVER

Hebrews chapter 10 verse 14 says this;

For by one sacrifice he has made perfect forever those who are being made holy.

The Amplified version says it this way;

For by the one offering He has perfected forever and completely cleansed those who are being sanctified [bringing each believer to spiritual completion and maturity].

This profound verse contrasts the repeated daily sacrifices that the priests had to perform under the old covenant with the singular sacrifice that Jesus Christ offered by dying on a cross to perfect and cleanse us forever.

Whereas the blood of bulls and goats could not cleanse from sin or from a guilty conscience but rather served only as a  reminder of sin, the blood of Jesus was able to permanently cleanse from sin and cleanse the conscience of those being made holy.

How precious the sacrifice of our Lord is for it forever secured those who in faith believed.

Amen.
