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.)
