Neither - it is not in the Greek text.

How does that align with... Heb 10 4 For it is impossible for the blood of bulls and goats to take away sins.

Yes God required it to be done as a way of preparing mankind to understand the one true sacrifice when He arrived - an object lesson - like the blood on the doorposts - obedience honoured by God but not the ultimate atonement to come in Christs blood.

Exactly and eternal is both eternal past and eternal future. The Cross is a timeless event anchored in History. The OT saints by faith are under the blood of Jesus as are all spiritual children of Abraham.

No... because it was stated clearly as follows... Heb 10 4 For it is impossible for the blood of bulls and goats to take away sins.

So how do Old Covenant saints enter heaven if they do not have the atonement through the Blood of Christ ?

I have no issue with Heb 9:26 but there are different interpretations. I am keen to know how you perceive the sins of Old Covenant saints were atoned for.

Not clear and plain about this issue... How were the sins of the Old Covenant Saints atoned for? when Christ appeared as a high priest of the good things that have come, then through the greater and more perfect tent (not made with hands, that is, not of this creation) 12 he entered once for...

The Cross is a timeless event - a God event in His timelessness. His blood covered the righteous in faith throughout the whole of history. There was one crucifixion anchored in time but timeless in action.

First off I don't think there is any one church that you have to hunt for. Jesus used very imperfect folks to birth His church and so it continues. Sure you must look for Love and a respect for Scripture but the most important matter is to learn to hear Him and go in obedience to where He...

I will repeat references in a modern translation - no worries. I wasn't implying salvation through baptism, just gathering a bigger picture... Jeremiah 15 15 You know, Lord; Remember me, take notice of me, And take vengeance for me on my persecutors. Do not, in view of Your patience, take me...

I was out of church for about 7 years after being asked to bring a word to a Pastor that he didn't want to receive, yet proved accurate. His church shrunk from 150 to 15 as God moved to correct the issue. Now I am back in church - not because there are no problems, but because He has a work for...

You might like to share where you are, as other members might be able to make a suggestion for fellowship.

Well when looking for a church, a high priority should be finding somewhere where you feel loved...

On what grounds are you being rejected ?

No so... Some sins have a spiritual source that needs to be renounced. Willpower will no do it. Do you have a church life? Can you arrange to have time with a church leader who can assist in dealing with your spiritual challenges?

That is not a correct view unless you are failing to confess known sin. I have yelled - that is OK. Please hang on in - it is tough but believe me you will come through. You are right to say it is not all about do,do,do,do... It is about asking for the heart desires that will result in the...

He knows all about you and loves you. If we ask anything according to His will He hears us. It is His will for you to love Him so... ask for love for Him. If we know that He hears us, we know we receive the requests that we ask. 1 John 5:13-15 Always ask for what you know you lack - be...

Anyone receiving a genuine gift of the Spirit of God should 'give it back' and ask for wisdom in it's use...

Thanks for your take on it :) Yes... we are talking about a mess, however when orderly each one is expected to bring something. Yet the following context in verse 34 is that the woman are to be silent (as the Law says) although we know there were woman prophets. This however clearly states...
