A New and Living Way

19 Therefore, brethren, since we ahave confidence to benter the holy place by the blood of Jesus,

20 by aa new and living way which He inaugurated for us through bthe veil, that is, His flesh,

21 and since we have aa great priest bover the house of God,

22 let us adraw near with a 1sincere heart in bfull assurance of faith, having our hearts csprinkled clean from an evil conscience and our bodies dwashed with pure water.

23 Let us hold fast the aconfession of our bhope without wavering, for cHe who promised is faithful;

24 and let us consider how ato stimulate one another to love and bgood deeds,

25 not forsaking our own aassembling together, as is the habit of some, but bencouraging one another; and all the more as you see cthe day drawing near.

Christ or Judgment

26 For if we go on asinning willfully after receiving bthe knowledge of the truth, there no longer remains a sacrifice for sins,

27 but a terrifying expectation of ajudgment and bthe fury of a fire which will consume the adversaries.
