Since we have a great High Priest who has entered heaven
Hebrews 4 says, “Having then a great high priest who has passed through the heavens, Jesus, the Son of God, let us hold tightly to our confession. For we do not have a high priest who is unable to sympathize with our weaknesses, but one who in every respect has been tempted as we are, yet without sin. Let us therefore draw near with boldness to the throne of grace, that we may receive mercy and may find grace for help in time of need."
Sisters and brothers, your sins are forgiven. The Spirit of God and the power of Christ are with you. So live boldly as citizens of the kingdom of God, where Satan has no power. Amen!
