But Christ came as High Priest of the good things to come, with the greater and more perfect tabernacle not made with hands, that is, not of this creation. He. 9:11 He didn’t come with the blood of goats and calves, but He came with His own blood. He entered into the Holy Place, the Most Holy Place, once for all. Why? Because He had obtained eternal redemption for us. “How much more shall the blood of Christ who through the eternal Spirit offered Himself without any spot or blemish to God, how much more shall He cleanse your conscience from dead works.” He. 9:14 Why did He do this? To bring us into partnership with the living God. Not only is the Lamb a person and not an animal, but the “sin” problem has been removed, once for all, forever removed. He takes it away. He doesn’t put it in a corner or reduce its penalty. He removes the entire penalty for the crime of sin for those who come under His redemption. Absolutely, fantastic! Its not just good news for people the day they get saved; its the truth about who we are all the days of our lives. From the day we were born again clear til the end. Its true of you now, not just good news the day you were saved. A lot of people get saved, they rejoice for a month, and then they kick back into the old system, that their sins are still on them. “Behold the Lamb who takes away the sin of the world.” He takes it away forever from your relationship with God. Between you and God there is no accounting of sin against you. Indescribably good news!
