One Offering, Done Forever | Apostolic Wisdom Daily Manna

"For by one sacrifice He has made perfect forever those who are being sanctified." (Hebrews 10:14, BSB)

Think of paying school fees in instalments. Every month there's a queue, a form and a fresh worry. Now picture the day the office says, "Paid in full. Nothing more to pay." You still go to school. But you don't stand in the queue again. That's the contrast in this chapter. Under the old order, priests offered the same sacrifices "again and again, which can never take away sins" (Hebrews 10:11). The repeating itself proved something. If the work were finished, there'd be no need to offer it again. It was a shadow, pointing to a better offering. Then Jesus offered one sacrifice. Himself. And the writer says, "by one sacrifice He has made perfect forever." Not "for a season". Forever. Look at the second half of the verse. "Those who are being sanctified." That's ongoing. You are being made holy in daily life. But the first half is finished.
