Jesus Christ is the body required for our righteousness

Jesus Christ is the body required for our righteousness – Hebrews 10:1-14

10 For the law having a shadow (shade) of good things to come, and not the very image (resemble) of the things, can never with those sacrifices which they offered year by year continually make the comers thereunto perfect (to finish, to bring through to the end).

² For then would they not have ceased to be offered? because that the worshippers once purged should have had no (not one) more (of un-pardoned sins) conscience of sins.

³ But in those sacrifices there is a remembrance again made of sins every year.

⁴ For it is not possible that the blood of bulls and of goats should take away sins.

⁵ Wherefore when he cometh into the world, he saith, Sacrifice and offering thou wouldest (demandest) not, but a body hast thou prepared me:

⁶ In burnt offerings and sacrifices for sin thou hast had no pleasure.

⁷ Then said I, Lo, I come (in the volume of the book it is written of me,) to do thy will, O God.

⁸ Above when he said, Sacrifice and offering and burnt offerings and offering for sin thou wouldest (demandest) not, neither hadst pleasure therein; which are offered by the law;

⁹ Then said he, Lo, I come to do thy will, O God. He taketh away the first, that he may establish the second.

¹⁰ By the which will we are (have been) sanctified (to make holy) through the offering of the body of Jesus Christ once for all.

¹² But this man, after he had offered one sacrifice for sins for ever, sat down on the right hand of God;

¹³ From henceforth expecting till his enemies be made his footstool.

¹⁴ For by one offering he hath perfected for ever them that are sanctified.
