What did the high priest have to do every year to open the way for man to approach God?

Every year the high priest had to present the blood, which was the only thing that opened the way for man to approach God. Scripture states that without the shedding of blood there is no remission or forgiveness, so there is no other approach to God than the blood-sprinkled way.

Les teaches that the high priest had to present the blood every year in the tabernacle, and that this was the only thing that opened the way for man to approach God. He connects this to Hebrews 9:22, where almost all things under the law were purged by blood, and without the shedding of blood there is no remission or forgiveness. Les notes that some liberal circles and major denominations dislike the blood-bought way of salvation and have removed hymns referring to the blood, but Scripture presents it as an absolute that cannot be compromised or detoured. There is no approach to God other than the blood-sprinkled way; without faith we cannot please Him, and without the shedding of blood we cannot please Him.
