First, He says: 16 "This is the covenant I will make with them after those days, says the Lord: I will put My laws into their hearts and write them on their minds." 17 Then He adds: 'Their sins and lawless acts I will remember no longer.' 18 Now where there is forgiveness of these, there is no longer any offering for sin. 19 Therefore, brothers, since we have confidence to enter the Most Holy Place by the blood of Jesus, 20 by a new and living way opened for us through the curtain, that is, His body, 21 and since we have a great high priest over the house of God, 22 let us draw near with a sincere heart and with the full assurance that faith brings, having our hearts sprinkled to cleanse us from a guilty conscience and our bodies washed with pure water.
