Free to Serve the Living God: Hebrews 9:11-14
“11) But when Christ appeared as a high priest of the good things to come, He entered through the greater and more perfect tabernacle, not made with hands, that is to say, not of this creation; 12) and not through the blood of goats and calves, but through His own blood, He entered the holy place once for all, having obtained eternal redemption. 13) For if the blood of goats and bulls and the ashes of a heifer sprinkling those who have been defiled sanctify for the cleansing of the flesh, 14) how much more will the blood of Christ, who through the eternal Spirit offered Himself without blemish to God, cleanse your conscience from dead works to serve the living God?” Hebrews 9:11-14
Jesus was inaugurated into a ministry not of this creation. He has a heavenly ministry. He serves in the real tabernacle, the the earthy copy. He entered and remains in the real holy place for all time. His blood cleanses both the flesh and the conscience of the worshippers.
He saves to the uttermost those who believe in Him. He saves them from dead works and rituals and frees the to serve the Living God.
