Hebrews 10:1-7

1For since the law has but a shadow of the good things to come instead of the true form of these realities, it can never, by the same sacrifices that are continually offered every year, make perfect those who draw near.

2Otherwise, would they not have ceased to be offered, since the worshipers, having once been cleansed, would no longer have any consciousness of sins?

3But in these sacrifices there is a reminder of sins every year.

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

5Consequently, when Christ came into the world, he said, "Sacrifices and offerings you have not desired, but a body have you prepared for me;

6in burnt offerings and sin offerings you have taken no pleasure.

7Then I said, 'Behold, I have come to do your will, O God, as it is written of me in the scroll of the book.'"
