Revised Common Lectionary (Complementary)

¹⁹ So, my brothers, we can go into the Most Holy Place by the blood of Jesus.

²⁰ He made a new and living way for us. He opened up God's way specially for us. It lets us through the big curtain or cloth which hides God from us. This happened when Jesus gave his body as a sacrifice.

²¹ Also, we have a high priest who has charge of God's people.

²² So let us come to him with a true heart. Let us come because we believe all these things. Let us come with our hearts washed clean from our wrong ways. Let us come with our bodies washed with clean water.

²³ We must hold on to God's promise that we have said we believed. And we must never let go. He has promised and he will do it.

²⁴ Let us think of one another and help one another to love and to do good things.

²⁵ Do not stop going to church meetings. Some people do stop. But help each other to be strong. You must do it all the more as you see the Great Day coming closer.
