For Christ has entered, not inot holy places made with hands, which are copies of the true things, but into heaven itself, now to appear in the presence of God on our behalf. Nor we it to offer Himself repeatedly, as the high priest enters the holy places every year with blood not his own, for the He would have had to suffer repeatedly since the foundation of the world. But as it is, He has appeared once for all at the end of the ages to put away sin by the sacrifice of Himself. And just as it is appointed for man to die once, and after that comes judgment, so Christ, having been offered once to bear the sins of many, will appear but to save those who are eagerly waiting for Him.
Hebrews 9:24-38 (English Standard version - ESV)
