"This hope we have as an anchor of the soul, both sure and steadfast, and which enters the Presence behind the veil, where the forerunner has entered for us, even Jesus, having become High Priest forever according to the order of Melchizedek." (Hebrews 6:19, 20)
"This hope," which you and I have in Jesus Christ, is for us, "....an anchor of the soul, both sure and steadfast...." Our text tells us that we not only have, "....this hope...as an anchor of the soul," but we have entered in Jesus Christ into the very, "....Presence behind the veil...."
No one has to say, "I hope I make it." We are already"there," in Jesus Christ, in His, "....Presence behind the veil.... Therefore, brethren, having boldness to enter the Holiest by the Blood of Jesus,...let us draw near with a true heart in full assurance of faith...." (Chapter 10)
Father, in Jesus' Name, I so thank You for, "This hope." Amen.
