- And having been made perfect, he became the source of eternal salvation for all who obey him.
- Therefore let us go on toward perfection, leaving behind the basic teaching about Christ, and not laying again the foundation: repentance from dead works and faith toward God, instruction about baptisms, laying on of hands, resurrection of the dead, and eternal judgment.
- For God is not unjust; he will not overlook your work and the love that you showed for his sake in serving the saints, as you still do.
- Consequently he is able for all time to save those who approach God through him, since he always lives to make intercession for them.
- But Jesus has now obtained a more excellent ministry, and to that degree he is the mediator of a better covenant, which has been enacted through better promises.
- For I will be merciful toward their iniquities,
and I will remember their sins no more. - How much more will the blood of Christ, who through the eternal Spirit offered himself without blemish to God, purify our conscience from dead works to worship the living God!
- For this reason he is the mediator of a new covenant, so that those who are called may receive the promised eternal inheritance, because a death has occurred that redeems them from the transgressions under the first covenant.
- Indeed, under the law almost everything is purified with blood, and without the shedding of blood there is no forgiveness of sins.
- So Christ, having been offered once to bear the sins of many, will appear a second time, not to deal with sin, but to save those who are eagerly waiting for him.
