Paid in Full ๐Ÿšฎ

 Hebrews 9 is rich in its teaching. We read of the Tabernacle that was made in the wilderness. We first read about this Tabernacle in the Book of Exodus..

Exodus 25:8 (KJV) And let them make me a sanctuary; that I may dwell among them.

Exodus 25:9 (KJV) According to all that I shew thee, after the pattern of the tabernacle, and the pattern of all the instruments thereof, even so shall ye make it.

The Tabernacle is a picture of Jesus Christ as we read here in Hebrews 9. We can see Christ our Savior pictured in the Tabernacle. In the High Priest and what he did within the Tabernacle for the people. Once every year the High Priest would take a blood sacrifice behind the second veil. There alone once a year the High Priest would offer for himself and the people.

Hebrews 9:7 (KJV) But into the second went the high priest alone once every year, not without blood, which he offered for himself, and for the errors of the people: The High Priest went behind the second veil only once a year and then he never went behind the second veil again. The next year another High Priest would go, the next year another and so forth and so on. Go forward to the Cross and Jesus dying. On that day this happened. Matthew 27:51 (KJV) And, behold, the veil of the temple was rent in twain from the top to the bottom; and the earth did quake, and the rocks rent; Why was this so important? That we are taken from the Cross and the death of Jesus, God’s son to the Temple? Jesus our High Priest entered once behind the second veil and paid the sin debt for all mankind. The veil was torn stating Jesus paid the sin debt of all mankind. That’s why Jesus could say  

John 19:30 (KJV) When Jesus therefore had received the vinegar, he said, It is finished: and he bowed his head, and gave up the ghost. Never again will a High Priest have to go behind the second veil for the Great High Priest has once and for all paid the sin debt of mankind.
