Through Christ We Can Enter The Holiest


This is the covenant I will make with them after those days, saith the Lord, I will put my laws into their hearts, and in their minds will I write them; And their sins and iniquities will I remember no more. Now where remission of these is, there is no more offering for sin. Having therefore, brethren boldness to enter into the holiest by the blood of Jesus. By a new living way, which He hath consecrated for us, through the veil, that is to say, His flesh; Hebrews 10:16-20

Why is this so important to come to accept this Truth? Because the Truth will set us free! In Hebrews 10 our Father wrote boldness, a-men, we now have boldness, boldness because of the Blood of our Savior Jesus. Through Christ we now have boldness to enter into the Holiest. The Blood of Jesus allows us to not just be holy, oh no, the Blood allows us to go into the Holiest! The Blood gives us the ability to be completely unified with God. We are in constant fellowship with our Father, it is never broken! 

I don’t know about you, but most of the Christians I meet are hung up on a humans ability to truly be holy, let’s move past that beginning principle and let’s go on to perfection, let’s go on to boldly being in the Holiest as our Lord is in the Holiest! Too much of the church is sin focused. We preach about the consequences of sin, the destruction of it, the hurt found in it, and we never seem to get around to the Blood allowing us to have boldness to go to the Holiest place. I saw this and I thought a-men Father, holy isn’t good enough, with You Father we need to be in the Holiest and through the strength of our Dad that is within us, we should be bold and expect it and desire it. This Truth has been placed into our hearts and written in our minds! We can’t get there on our own, even at our best, as Jesus said that John the Baptist was, we fall short of even holy. But the least in Jesus’ Kingdom, the least who has been called and chosen to be in Christ, is far greater than John the Baptist! Through the strength of the Blood of Jesus Christ our Lord and Savior we have boldness to enter the Holiest!

Truly I tell you, among those born of women there has not risen anyone greater than John the Baptist; yet he who is least in the kingdom of heaven is greater than he. Matthew 11:11
