Christ’s Sacrifice Once for All

Unchecked Copy BoxHeb 10:1 -

For the Law, since it has only a shadow of the good things to come and not the very [fn]form of things, [fn]can never, by the same sacrifices which they offer continually year by year, make perfect those who draw near.

Unchecked Copy BoxHeb 10:2 - Otherwise, would they not have ceased to be offered, because the worshipers, having once been cleansed, would no longer have consciousness of sins?
Unchecked Copy BoxHeb 10:3 - But in [fn]those sacrifices there is a reminder of sins year by year.
Unchecked Copy BoxHeb 10:4 - For it is impossible for the blood of bulls and goats to take away sins.
(cf. Psa 40:6–8 )
Unchecked Copy BoxHeb 10:5 - Therefore, when He comes into the world, He says,

“SACRIFICE AND OFFERING YOU HAVE NOT DESIRED,

BUT A BODY YOU HAVE PREPARED FOR ME;

Unchecked Copy BoxHeb 10:6 -

IN BURNT OFFERINGS AND sacrifices FOR SIN YOU HAVE TAKEN NO PLEASURE.

Unchecked Copy BoxHeb 10:7 -

“THEN I SAID, ‘BEHOLD, I HAVE COME,

IN THE SCROLL OF THE BOOK IT IS WRITTEN OF ME,

TO DO YOUR WILL, O GOD.’”

Unchecked Copy BoxHeb 10:8 -

After saying above, “SACRIFICES AND OFFERINGS AND BURNT OFFERINGS AND sacrifices FOR SIN YOU HAVE NOT DESIRED, NOR HAVE YOU TAKEN PLEASURE in them” (which are offered according to the Law),

Unchecked Copy BoxHeb 10:9 - then He [fn]said, “BEHOLD, I HAVE COME TO DO YOUR WILL.” He takes away the first in order to establish the second.
Unchecked Copy BoxHeb 10:10 - By [fn]this will we have been sanctified through the offering of the body of Jesus Christ once for all.
Unchecked Copy BoxHeb 10:11 -

And every priest stands daily ministering and offering time after time the same sacrifices, which can never take away sins;

Unchecked Copy BoxHeb 10:12 - but He, having offered one sacrifice for [fn]sins for all time, SAT DOWN AT THE RIGHT HAND OF GOD,
Unchecked Copy BoxHeb 10:13 - waiting from that time UNTIL HIS ENEMIES ARE PUT AS A FOOTSTOOL FOR HIS FEET.
Unchecked Copy BoxHeb 10:14 - For by one offering He has perfected for all time those who are being sanctified.
Unchecked Copy BoxHeb 10:15 - And the Holy Spirit also testifies to us, for after saying,
Unchecked Copy BoxHeb 10:16 -

“THIS IS THE COVENANT THAT I WILL MAKE WITH THEM

AFTER THOSE DAYS, SAYS THE [fn]LORD:

I WILL PUT MY LAWS UPON THEIR HEART,

AND ON THEIR MIND I WILL WRITE THEM,”

He then says,

Unchecked Copy BoxHeb 10:17 -

“AND THEIR SINS AND THEIR LAWLESS DEEDS

I WILL REMEMBER NO MORE.”

Unchecked Copy BoxHeb 10:18 -

Now where there is forgiveness of these things, there is no longer any offering for sin.

A New and Living Way

Unchecked Copy BoxHeb 10:19 -

Therefore, brothers, since we have confidence to enter the holy places by the blood of Jesus,

Unchecked Copy BoxHeb 10:20 - by a new and living way which He inaugurated for us through the veil, that is, His flesh,
Unchecked Copy BoxHeb 10:21 - and since we have a great priest over the house of God,
Unchecked Copy BoxHeb 10:22 - let us draw near with a [fn]sincere heart in full assurance of faith, having our hearts sprinkled from an evil conscience and our bodies washed with pure water.
Unchecked Copy BoxHeb 10:23 - Let us hold fast the confession of our hope without wavering, for He who promised is faithful.
Unchecked Copy BoxHeb 10:24 - And let us consider how to stimulate one another to love and good deeds,
Unchecked Copy BoxHeb 10:25 - not forsaking our own assembling together, as is the habit of some, but encouraging one another, and all the more as you see the day drawing near.

Warning Against Willful Sin

Unchecked Copy BoxHeb 10:26 -

For if we go on sinning willfully after receiving the knowledge of the truth, there no longer remains a sacrifice for sins,

Unchecked Copy BoxHeb 10:27 - but a terrifying expectation of judgment and THE FURY OF A FIRE WHICH WILL CONSUME THE ADVERSARIES.
Unchecked Copy BoxHeb 10:28 - Anyone who has set aside the Law of Moses dies without mercy by the mouth of two or three witnesses.
Unchecked Copy BoxHeb 10:29 - How much worse punishment do you think he will deserve who has trampled underfoot the Son of God, and has regarded as defiled the blood of the covenant by which he was sanctified, and has insulted the Spirit of grace?
Unchecked Copy BoxHeb 10:30 - For we know Him who said, “VENGEANCE IS MINE, I WILL REPAY.” And again, “THE [fn]LORD WILL JUDGE HIS PEOPLE.”
Unchecked Copy BoxHeb 10:31 - It is a terrifying thing to fall into the hands of the living God.
Unchecked Copy BoxHeb 10:32 -

But remember the former days, [fn]when, after being enlightened, you endured a great conflict of sufferings,

Unchecked Copy BoxHeb 10:33 - partly by being made a public spectacle through reproaches and afflictions, and partly by becoming sharers with those who were so treated.
Unchecked Copy BoxHeb 10:34 - For you also showed sympathy to the prisoners and accepted with joy the seizure of your possessions, knowing that you have for yourselves a better and lasting possession.
Unchecked Copy BoxHeb 10:35 - Therefore, do not throw away that confidence of yours, which has a great reward.
Unchecked Copy BoxHeb 10:36 - For you have need of endurance, so that when you have done the will of God, you may receive the promise.
Unchecked Copy BoxHeb 10:37 -

FOR YET IN A VERY LITTLE WHILE,

HE WHO IS COMING WILL COME, AND WILL NOT DELAY.

Unchecked Copy BoxHeb 10:38 -

BUT MY RIGHTEOUS ONE SHALL LIVE BY FAITH,

AND IF HE SHRINKS BACK, MY SOUL HAS NO PLEASURE IN HIM.

Unchecked Copy BoxHeb 10:39 -

But [fn]we are not of those who shrink back to destruction, but of those who have faith to the [fn]preserving of the soul.
