Hebrews 10:14-23
Evangelical Heritage Version
14 By only one sacrifice he has made perfect forever those who are being sanctified.
15 The Holy Spirit also testifies in Scripture[a] to us, for first he said:
16 This is the covenant I will make with them
after those days, says the Lord.
I will put my laws on their hearts
and I will write them on their mind.[b]
17 Then he adds:
And I will not remember their sins and their lawlessness any longer.[c]
18 Now where these sins are forgiven, there is no longer any sacrifice for sin.
Confidence Through Christ
19 Brothers,[d] we have confidence to enter the Most Holy Place through the blood of Jesus. 20 It is a new and living way he opened for us through the curtain, that is, his flesh. 21 We also have a great priest over the house of God. 22 So let us approach with a sincere heart, in the full confidence of faith, because our hearts have been sprinkled to take away a bad conscience, and our bodies have been washed with pure water. 23 Let us hold on firmly to the confession of our hope without wavering, since he who promised is faithful.
