That thick veil, hanging between the holy place and the most holy place, declared to fallen man, "Your iniquities have separated between you and your God" (Isaiah 59:2). But now by this precious undertaking in fulfilling the whole covenant of works, by his obedience unto death as the sinners' Substitute, our Lord Jesus Christ has restored the honor of God, magnified the injured perfections of the Almighty, satisfied the justice of God, atoned for sin, and opened a new and living way by his blood, which he has consecrated through the veil of his flesh. Our blessed Lord Jesus has, by his obedience and death as our Substitute, opened the door for sinners to come to God! He has opened the kingdom of heaven for all who believe on him. — That is what the prophet Isaiah foretold in Isaiah 25:7.
