2-Apr-12: Hebrews 9:11-15
11 But when Christ came as a high priest of the good things that have come, then through the greater and perfect tent (not made with hands, that is, not of this creation), 12 he entered once for all into the Holy Place, not with the blood of goats and calves, but with his own blood, thus obtaining eternal redemption. 13 For if the blood of goats and bulls, with the sprinkling of the ashes of a heifer, sanctifies those who have been defiled so that their flesh is purified, 14 how much more will the blood of Christ, who through the eternal Spirit offered himself without blemish to God, purify our conscience from dead works to worship the living God!
15 For this reason he is the mediator of a new covenant, so that those who are called may receive the promised eternal inheritance, because a death has occurred that redeems them from the transgressions under the first covenant.
“……and are you SURE we need to throw this old scroll away?”
Now and again and over again did critters mull and skull o’er the lessons of Crow
and Bird and Fly and Raggedy One and all critters so marked and sparked by this quest.
Now and again, then again did one critter hum to the other about what to stow
and what to toss over the crested side of trip and struggle and buggle calling for their best.
“Oh, lookee, lookee, ye blinding bats of critters, what be this, what see this old skin?”
“Oh, kick that ol’ skin o’er the side, ye wonderin’ folk,” called down Ugly Bird.
“Oh, no more need for such an ol’ scroll,” agreed Old Raggedy,”‘Tis no bettern tin!”
Agreed Old Crow:”Ye have new scroll, new plan, new print for life bought by Living Word.”
