Hebrews 10:19-25
Christ's finished work grants confident access to God and calls believers to persevering, communal faithfulness.
19 Having therefore, brothers, boldness to enter into the holy place by the blood of Jesus,
20 by the way which he dedicated for us, a new and living way, through the veil, that is to say, his flesh,
21 and having a great priest over God’s house,
22 let’s draw near with a true heart in fullness of faith, having our hearts sprinkled from an evil conscience, and having our body washed with pure water,
23 let’s hold fast the confession of our hope without wavering; for he who promised is faithful.
24 Let’s consider how to provoke one another to love and good works,
25 not forsaking our own assembling together, as the custom of some is, but exhorting one another, and so much the more as you see the Day approaching.
Christ's finished work grants confident access to God and calls believers to persevering, communal faithfulness.
To exhort believers to draw near to God, hold fast their confession, and encourage one another in light of Christ's finished work.
Christ's Once-for-All Offering and the Call to Draw Near, Hold Fast, and Endure
Because Christ's once-for-all sacrifice has opened final access to God, believers must draw near with confidence, hold fast in hope, encourage one another, and endure by faith rather than shrink back.
