AI OVERVIEW: The first covenant had regulations for worship and an earthly sanctuary, with the high priest entering the inner room once a year and never without blood to cover sins. That system could not cleanse the conscience; Christ, entering a greater tabernacle by his own blood, obtained eternal redemption and purifies our conscience from acts leading to death. Jesus fulfills the tabernacle's symbols—bread of life, light of the world, continually interceding as priest—and his death tore the veil, granting direct access to God. Believers are called to bury guilt in the cross, not punish themselves, and to confess sins to one another for healing, as forgiveness frees them to draw near in love.
