Hebrews 6:18-20 so that by two unchangeable things, in which it is impossible for God to lie, we who have fled for refuge might have strong encouragement to hold fast to the hope set before us. We have this as a sure and steadfast anchor of the soul, a hope that enters into the inner place behind the curtain, where Jesus has gone as a forerunner on our behalf, having become a high priest forever after the order of Melchizedek.

We have this as a sure and steadfast anchor of the soul, a hope that enters into the inner place behind the curtain, where Jesus has gone as a forerunner on our behalf, having become a high priest forever after the order of Melchizedek.
Our hope comes from the plans that God has for us as well as Jesus christ and the indwelling of the spirit. The curtain referred to is that which separates the holy of holies; and consequently the seat of mercy from the regular priest. This curtain is torn by the power of Christ’s sacrifice. Therefore we gain hope and expectation of entering into that holy of holies.
Therefore it is the sacrifice of Christ which provides us for a reason for the hope that is within us, since it is assured by the word of God.
