GOSPEL NUGGET #214

The Once For All Sacrifice Of The Savior

Heb 7:27 who does not need daily, as those high priests, to offer up sacrifices, first for His own sins and then for the people's, for this He did ONCE FOR ALL when He offered up Himself.

Unlike the Old Testament priests who offered animal sacrifices daily in the tabernacle and eventually in the temple, the Lord Jesus' sacrifice, being the fulfillment of those sacrifices (which only served as a picture and a symbol of His sacrifice on the cross), was offered ONCE FOR ALL.

His sacrifice on the cross will never be repeated again. It was a sacrifice that was eternally offered. 

As such, it was a sacrifice that could remove away ALL sins in the past, present and the future. 

And in that once for all sacrifice, I have entrusted the salvation of my soul. Come and entrust your soul's salvation to His eternally sufficient sacrifice. There is no other work and sacrifice that could eternally take away all your sins.
