Hebrews 10:1-18

1Since the law has only a shadow of the good things to come, and not the reality itself of those things, it can never perfect the worshipers by the same sacrifices they continually offer year after year.

2Otherwise, wouldn’t they have stopped being offered, since the worshipers, purified once and for all, would no longer have any consciousness of sins?

3But in the sacrifices there is a reminder of sins year after year.

4For it is impossible for the blood of bulls and goats to take away sins.

5Therefore, as he was coming into the world, he said: You did not desire sacrifice and offering, but you prepared a body for me.

6You did not delight in whole burnt offerings and sin offerings.

7Then I said, “See — it is written about me in the scroll — I have come to do your will, God.”

8After he says above, You did not desire or delight in sacrifices and offerings, whole burnt offerings and sin offerings (which are offered according to the law),

9he then says, See, I have come to do your will. He takes away the first to establish the second.

10By this will, we have been sanctified through the offering of the body of Jesus Christ once for all time.

11Every priest stands day after day ministering and offering the same sacrifices time after time, which can never take away sins.

12But this man, after offering one sacrifice for sins forever, sat down at the right hand of God.

13He is now waiting until his enemies are made his footstool.

14For by one offering he has perfected forever those who are sanctified.

15The Holy Spirit also testifies to us about this. For after he says:

16This is the covenant I will make with them after those days, the Lord says, I will put my laws on their hearts and write them on their minds,

17and I will never again remember their sins and their lawless acts.

18Now where there is forgiveness of these, there is no longer an offering for sin.
