010:013 waiting from that time onward until His enemies be put as a
footstool under His feet.
010:014 For by a single offering He has for ever completed the blessing
for those whom He is setting free from sin.
010:015 And the Holy Spirit also gives us His testimony; for when
He had said,
010:016 "`This is the Covenant that I will make with them after those days,'
says the Lord: `I will put My laws upon their hearts and will
write them on their minds;'"
010:017 He adds, "And their sins and offences I will remember no longer."
010:018 But where these have been forgiven no further offering for
sin is required.
010:019 Since then, brethren, we have free access to the Holy place
through the blood of Jesus,
010:020 by the new and ever-living way which He opened up for us through
the rending of the veil--that is to say, of His earthly nature--
010:021 and since we have a great Priest who has authority over
the house of God,
010:022 let us draw near with sincerity and unfaltering faith,
having had our hearts sprinkled, once for all, from consciences
oppressed with sin, and our bodies bathed in pure water.
010:023 Let us hold firmly to an unflinching avowal of our hope,
for He is faithful who gave us the promises.
010:024 And let us bestow thought on one another with a view to arousing
one another to brotherly love and right conduct;
010:025 not neglecting--as some habitually do--to meet together,
but encouraging one another, and doing this all the more
since you can see the day of Christ approaching.
010:026 For if we wilfully persist in sin after having received the full
knowledge of the truth, there no longer remains in reserve
