Hebrews 10:19-25

[19] Having  therefore,  brethren,  boldness  to  enter  by  the blood  of Jesus,  [20] By a new  and  living  way,  which  he hath consecrated  through  the veil,  his  flesh;  [21] And  having an high  priest  over  the house  of God;  [22] Let us draw near  with  a true  heart  in  full assurance  of faith,  our hearts  sprinkled  from  an evil  conscience,  and  our bodies  washed  with pure  water.  [23] Let us hold fast  the profession  of our faith  without wavering;  (for  he is faithful  that promised;)  [24] And  let us consider  one another  to  provoke  unto love  and  to good  works:  [25] Not  forsaking  of ourselves  together,  as  the manner  of some  is; but  exhorting  one another: and  so much  the more,  as  ye see  the day  approaching.
