Hebrews 9:11-14, the Old Covenant relied on the repeated animal sacrifices. Which was only a temporary atonement that couldn't truly cleanse the conscience. Hebrews emphasizes Christ's single, perfect sacrifice of His own blood, which offers permanent purification and access to His presence. Access to Jesus’ presence enables the Saint to grow to full maturity in Christ. Blessed is he whose transgression is forgiven, whose sin is covered, Psalm 32:1.
