Hebrews 9:24

For Christ is not entered into the holy places made with hands: for shows this to be a rational proof of the transcendency of Christ's death and sacrifice; and this he demonstrates from the place of his ministry, far exceeding that of his type. The gospel High Priest did not, like Aaron, enter with his blood into the holy of holiest of an earthly tabernacle, frail and movable, and appear before the mercy-seat on the ark there, Hebrews 9:9. Which are the figures of the true; all these were but like and correspondent figures and resemblances of the true, holy, and glorious place of God's residence. But into heaven itself; but he, as our High Priest, did enter with his atoning blood, after the sacrificing of himself on the cross, into the heaven of heavens, and approached the throne of justice, and propitiated it, making it a mercy-seat and true throne of grace unto penitent, believing sinners; and then perfected the work of propitiation and redemption: afterwards at his triumphant ascension, he entered in his whole person immortal, and laid open a way for our entering there. Now to appear in the presence of God for us; where he now appears as our advocating Mediator, pleading his merit for the remission of our sins, and rendering of God's face smiling on and favouring his clients, which was terrifying and affrighting to guilty Adam before: see Hebrews 7:25, Hebrews 10:19 Romans 8:34 1 John 2:1,2 Kings 5:6. Here he represents our persons to God's face, fitting in the mean while us beneath for our seeing him face to face, and being blessed in the enjoyment of that prospect for ever.
