(Heb 9:26) since He must often have suffered from the foundation of the world. But now once for all, at the completion of the ages, He has been manifested for putting away of sin through the sacrifice of Himself.

From G4931; entire completion, that is, consummation (of a dispensation): - end.
He came once in the flesh as a sin offering at the end of a dispensation. The end of what? He fulfilled the law of Moses and ushered in the new covenant.
(Heb 9:6) And these having been prepared thus, the priests go into the first tabernacle through all, completing the services.
(Heb 9:7) But into the second the high priest goes alone once in the year, not without blood, which he offers for himself and the ignorances of the people;
(Heb 9:
the Holy Spirit signifying by this that the way of the Holy of Holies has not yet been made manifest, the first tabernacle still having been standing;
(Heb 9:9) which was a parable for the present time, according to which both gifts and sacrifices are offered, but as regards conscience, not being able to perfect the one serving,
(Heb 9:10) but only on foods and drinks, and various washings, and fleshly ordinances, until the time of setting things right has been imposed.
(Heb 9:11) But Christ having appeared as a High Priest of the coming good things, through the greater and more perfect tabernacle not made with hands, that is, not of this creation,
(Heb 9:12) nor through the blood of goats and of calves, but through His own blood, He entered once for all into the Holy of Holies, having procured everlasting redemption.
The law of Moses was fulfilled by the shedding of blood, not blood of bulls and goats, but His own blood. He became the testator of a new covenant through His blood and death.
Christ being raised being set on the right hand of God, having done the will of the Father now is our High Priest without sin.
(Heb 9:28) so Christ having been once offered "to bear the sins of many," Christ shall appear a second time without sin to those expecting Him for salvation. Isa. 53:12
Now, with our eyes beginning to open, we see Christ without sin in the glory He has with the Father. We know that He is just, righteous, and perfectly capable, we in earnst expect Him for salvation.
He is the same yesterday, today and forever. He is the Alpha and the Omega, the beginning and the end. These verses have helped me.
(Rom 6:20) For when you were slaves of sin, you were free as to righteousness.
(Rom 6:21) Therefore what fruit did you have then in the things over which you are now ashamed? For the end of those things is death.
(Rom 6:22) But now having been set free from sin, and having been enslaved to God, you have your fruit unto sanctification, and the end everlasting life.
(Rom 6:23) For the wages of sin is death, but the gift of God is everlasting life in Christ Jesus our Lord.
God bless,
