Hebrews 9 Christ, our Savior, went from the cross to the grave and from that grave arose to enter once for all “into the Most Holy Place not by the blood of goats and calves but by his own blood, and so he himself secured eternal redemption.” [Heb 9:11] That is the true story of Christmas! And the why is explained further by the Hebrews author: “how much more will the blood of Christ, who through the eternal Spirit offered himself without blemish to God, purify our consciences from dead works to worship the living God.” [Heb 9:14] Further, the author gives us a promise: “So also after Christ was offered once to bear the sins of many, to those who eagerly await him, he will appear a second time, not to bear sin but to bring salvation.” [Heb 9:28]

Are you eagerly waiting for His return?
