Hebrews 9:24-28 For Christ has entered, not into holy places made with hands, which are copies of the true things, but into heaven itself, now to appear in the presence of God on our behalf. Nor was it to offer himself repeatedly, as the high priest enters the holy places every year with blood not his own, for then he would have had to suffer repeatedly since the foundation of the world. But as it is, he has appeared once for all at the end of the ages to put away sin by the sacrifice of himself. And just as it is appointed for man to die once, and after that comes judgment, so Christ, having been offered once to bear the sins of many, will appear a second time, not to deal with sin but to save those who are eagerly waiting for him.
God's plans are the best. He planned and created the world, and it was Good. He has also planned and carried out His plan of salvation in Christ. Rather than a series of continuous and repeated suffering for sin, Christ came and did it once for all. Now we wait for Him to return and finish the plan. The sin has been taken care of; He is now our Intercessor, and someday He will fully save all who believe, once for all.
