Hebrews 10:14, 17 (KJV) For by one offering he hath perfected for ever them that are sanctified.
A friend of mine sent this verse to me on Facebook messenger. It brought forth some wonderful thoughts to me that I include below:
What a comforting verse! PERFECTED, it means without blemish; not marred by sin! How can it be? Only through Jesus Christ, his sacrifice, his offering himself in our stead. And FOREVER! To think that we shall live sin-free throughout eternity, and not only that, (how can it be) we are seen by God the Father through Jesus Christ, and he now and forever sees us spotless and pure, just as his Son is spotless and pure! And who are the ones who are perfected forever? Why, the SANCTIFIED! Sanctified means to set apart for a holy use. In the everlasting covenant that made between God the Father, God the Son, and God the Holy Ghost, the elect, those who the Father intended to save; those the Father gave to the Son to redeem; those elect were SANCTIFIED or set apart to be holy, and by ONE OFFERING he (Jesus Christ the Son) hath PERFECTED (made to be free from sin) FOREVER! Hallelujah!!! Hallelujah!!! Hallelujah!!!
