When John had first preached before his coming the baptism of repentance to all the people of Israel.

For they themselves shew of us what manner of entering in we had unto you, and how ye turned to God from idols to serve the living and true God;

For yourselves, brethren, know our entrance in unto you, that it was not in vain:

Having therefore, brethren, boldness to enter into the holiest by the blood of Jesus,

For so an entrance shall be ministered unto you abundantly into the everlasting kingdom of our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ.
