What does Hebrews say about access to God?

Answered in 1 source

Hebrews teaches that we have boldness to enter the holiest by the blood of Jesus, through the veil of His flesh.

In Hebrews 10:19-20, we see that believers are granted boldness to enter into the presence of God by the blood of Jesus, emphasizing the importance of His sacrifice. This access is made possible by the tearing of the veil, which signifies Christ's body. His flesh, described as the veil (Hebrews 10:20), represents the barrier that separates sinful humanity from a holy God. By His sacrifice, this barrier is removed, allowing believers to approach God with confidence. This truth is crucial for Christians, as it confirms that our relationship with God is founded upon Christ’s finished work, securing us a permanent standing in grace.
