Monday, November 13th: Lamentations 1-2; Hebrews 10:1-18 ~ Tammy

Today's passage from the Bible In a Year Reading Plan is  Lamentations 1-2; Hebrews 10:1-18

Hebrews 10:14  14 For by one sacrifice he has made perfect forever those who are being made holy.

The Israelite priests made sacrifices day after day and it was never enough, and it never actually brought forgiveness of sins - though it did point to Jesus, the ultimate sacrifice whose death does bring forgiveness of sins. Through this one sacrifice Jesus has made us righteous in God’s eyes, and continues His perfecting work in our lives.   This must have been so kind baffling to the Jews at the time, who had witnessed those sacrifices over and over - and Jesus made them obsolete! Amazing!
