Leviticus 16:12Easy To Read VersionThen he must take a firepan [275] full of coals of fire from the altar [276] before the Lord. Aaron will take two handfuls of sweet incense [277] that has been ground into powder. Aaron must bring that incense into the room behind the curtain. See the chapter |
So surely the blood of Christ can do much, much more. Christ offered himself through the eternal Spirit {\cf2\super [106]} as a perfect sacrifice {\cf2\super [107]} to God. His blood will make us fully clean from the evil things we have done. His blood will make us pure even in our hearts. We are made pure so that we can worship (serve) the living God.
But only the high priest {\cf2\super [100]} could go into the second room. And the high priest went into that room only once a year. And the high priest could never enter that room without taking blood with him. The priest offered that blood to God for himself and for the people’s sins. Those sins were the sins the people did without knowing that they were sinning.
