Quick Take >> Hebrews 10:11-14

"And every priest stands daily at his service, offering repeatedly the same sacrifices, which can never take away sins. But when Christ had offered for all time a single sacrifice for sins, he sat down at the right hand of God, waiting for that time until his enemies should be made a footstool under his feet. For by a single offering he has perfected for all time those who are being sanctified." - Hebrews 10:11-14 This is probably one of my favorite verses in all of Hebrews. It is important to note that it is a ONE TIME sacrifice... not one repeated every day when a host is lifted up. There was no chair in the Temple b/c the priest's job was NEVER DONE. sins were constantly committed and constantly having to be sacrificed for. Not so with Christ's finished work.  He lived out his perfect obedience, took our sins upon himself at the cross, and clothes us perfectly - imputes - his righteousness to us, so that WE are counted as justified apart fro
