Alrighty, well today, my Bible reading was in Hebrews. (I hope to finsih the New Testament this summer) So, I was reading a few chapters (8-11) and, it was a wee bit obvious to me a point that God was trying to get across to me. It was that Chirst Jesus came ONCE to die for ALL sins until the end of time. Isn't that amazing. Like when you think of the sacrifice that was commited over 2000 years ago, that is STILL "working" today...still taking place. When you REALLY think about it it's like...breathtaking. It's crazy to think that when God sent His only son to go save the world. It was the WORLD, not just the world at that time. For the rest of time. What a POWERFUL gift that was...everlasting! Here are the verses that showed up:
- Hebrews 9:25-26 ~ "Nor did he enter heaven to offer himself again and again, the way the high priest enters the Most Holy Place ever year with the blood that is not his own. Then Christ would have had to suffer many times since the creation of the world. But now he has appeared once for all at the end of the ages to do away with sin by the sacrifice of himself. "
- Hebrews 10:10 ~ "And by that will, we have been made holy through the sacrifice of the body of Jesus Christ once and for all."
Take a moment to think about how life changing that is...Praise be to the only perfect one!
