20 His way is new because he lives. It has been opened for us through the curtain. I'm talking about his body.
21 We also have a great priest over the house of God.
22 So let us come near to God with an honest and true heart. Let us come near with a faith that is sure and strong. Our hearts have been sprinkled. Our minds have been cleansed from a sense of guilt. Our bodies have been washed with pure water.
23 Let us hold firmly to the hope we claim to have. The One who promised is faithful.
24 Let us consider how we can stir up one another to love. Let us help one another to do good works.
25 Let us not give up meeting together. Some are in the habit of doing this. Instead, let us cheer each other up with words of hope. Let us do it all the more as you see the day coming when Christ will return.
26 What if we keep sinning on purpose? What if we do it even after we know the truth? Then there is no offering for our sins.
