If you’ve ever felt like you’re on a treadmill trying to please God, Hebrews 6 and 8 declare a radical shift. Jesus, our forerunner, has entered the inner sanctuary on our behalf, redefining our access to God. It’s no longer about striving; it’s about intimacy and closeness with Him.

The old covenant’s limitations are history, replaced by a new covenant where God writes His laws on our hearts. This isn’t about external rules but an internal transformation. And here’s the game-changer: God remembers your sins no more. Total forgiveness reshapes how you view your past, yourself, and your relationship with God.
