Hebrews 9:23-Hebrews 10:18 - Christ's Death Takes Away Sins

23 It was therefore necessary, that the patterns of things in heaven should be purified by these, but the heavenly things themselves by better sacrifices than these. 24 For Christ did not enter into the holy place made with hands, the figures of the true; but into heaven itself, now to appear in the presence of God for us. 25 Nor did he enter, that he might offer himself often (as the high-priest entered into the holy place every year with the blood of others.) 26 For then he must often have suffered since the foundation of the world: but now once at the consummation of the ages hath he been manifested, to abolish sin by the sacrifice of himself. 27 And as it is appointed for men once to die, and after this the judgment: 28 So Christ also, having been once offered to bear the sins of many, will appear the second time, without sin, to them that look for him, unto salvation.

1 For the law having a shadow of good things to come, not the very image of the things, can never with the same sacrifices which they offer year by year continually, make the comers thereunto perfect. 2 Otherwise would they not have ceased to be offered? Because the worshipers, having been once purged, would have had no more consciousness of sins. 3 But in those sacrifices, there is a commemoration of sins every year. 4 For it is impossible, that the blood of bulls and of goats should take away sins.

5 Therefore when he cometh into the world, he saith, Sacrifice and offering thou hast not chosen, but a body hast thou prepared for me. 6 Burnt-offerings and sacrifices for sin thou hast not delighted in. 7 Then I said, Lo I come (in the volume of the book it is written of me) to do thy will, O God.

8 Above when he said, Sacrifice and offering, and burnt-offerings and offering for sin thou hast not chosen, neither delighted in, which are offered by the law: 9 Then said he, Lo, I come, to do thy will. He taketh away the first, that he may establish the second: 10 By which will we are sanctified, through the offering of the body of Jesus Christ once for all.

11 And every priest standeth daily ministring and offering often the same sacrifices, which can never take away sins: 12 But he having offered one sacrifice for sins, 13 for ever sat down at the right hand of God, From thenceforth expecting till his enemies be made his footstool. 14 For by one offering he hath perfected for ever them that are sanctified. 15 And this the Holy Ghost also witnesseth to us,

16 for after he had said before, This is the covenant which I will make with them after those days, saith the Lord: I will put my laws into their hearts, and write them in their minds,

17 And their sins, and their iniquities will I remember no more.

18 Now where remission of these is, there is no more offering for sin.
