Because Christ also suffered for sins once, the righteous for the unrighteous, that he might bring you to God; being put to death in the flesh, but made alive in the spirit;
Suffered for sins once ... "Once" is the great New Testament word from the Greek [@hapax], meaning "once for all."[27] It is used of: (1) Christ's coming in human form  (Hebrews 9:26); (2) Christ's death  (Hebrews 9:28); (3) the deliverance to mankind of the faith (Jude 1:1:3); (4) the offering of Christ's blood in heaven  (Hebrews 9:12,26); (5) the appointment to die  (Hebrews 9:27); (6) God's shaking the earth and the heavens so as to remove them  (Hebrews 12:27); and (7) the suffering of Christ for sins (1 Peter 3:18).
