"Indeed, under the law almost everything is purified with blood, and without the shedding of blood there is no forgiveness of sins." "so Christ, having been offered once to bear the sins of many will appear a second time, not to deal with sin but to save those who are eagerly waiting for him." (Hebrews 9:22 and 28)
