Having therefore, brethren, boldness to enter into the holiest by the blood of Jesus, by a new and living way, which He hath consecrated for us, through the veil, that is to say, His flesh; and [having] an high priest over the house of God; let us draw near with a true heart in full assurance of faith, having our hearts sprinkled from an evil conscience, and our bodies washed with pure water. Let us hold fast the profession of [our] faith without wavering; (for He is faithful that promised;)" (Hebrews 10:15-23)
At the cross, the veil was torn in two, from heaven to earth, so that we could have salvation and everlasting life in our Lord God and Saviour Jesus the Christ. He paid the ultimate price with His precious holy blood.
"To wit, God was in Christ reconciling the world unto Himself." (II Corinthians 5:19)
It was His desire that by a new and living way, His people would be consecrated. Redeemed. Made anew. Why? Because He is the Author and Finisher of our salvation. The King of kings and Lord of lords. And there is no other but Him. In this current dispensation of grace, His Name is JESUS, for He shall save His people from their sins. His promise to save you and I who believe on Him by faith and have our robes washed in His precious Name -- the Name of the Lord Jesus Christ.
Yes, it is Jesus who adorns us, clothing His beloved in in His cloak of righteousness -- and yes, He will save His people from their sins. Emmanuel, being interpreted, God with us. Praise His precious holy Name.
Stand in the offering plate.
