And again, must be doing so continually because He is interceding for us continually.

Once for all. Not continually. Intercession is a separate issue.

From Dr. DeHaan...

The blood was to be sprinkled, remember, on the mercy seat right after the death of the substitutionary animal of sacrifice, Now Christ is, of course, our substitute. He was slain for us upon the Cross, and entered into death for us, and when He arose, He immediately went to heaven, entered into the holy of holies in heaven, sprinkled His precious blood upon the mercy seat before the throne of God, and forever settled the sin questions, and delivered us from the curse of the law. This is clearly taught in the New testament. Hebrews 9:12 is very definite on this:

"But by his own blood he entered in once into the holy place, having obtained eternal redemption for us."

Also from Hebrews...

Hebrews 9

"Nor did he enter heaven to offer himself again and again, the way the high priest enters the Most Holy Place every year with blood that is not his own.

26 Otherwise Christ would have had to suffer many times since the creation of the world. But he has appeared once for all at the culmination of the ages to do away with sin by the sacrifice of himself.

27 Just as people are destined to die once, and after that to face judgment, 28 so Christ was sacrificed once to take away the sins of many; and he will appear a second time, not to bear sin, but to bring salvation to those who are waiting for him.

Best.

I neglected to reference this...This verse tells us that Christ does not repeat his sacrifice over and over since he would have to suffer each time...The Catholics however claim Jesus was only sacrificed once but it is ongoing, for 2000 years...Meaning, Christ has been suffering with incomprehensible pain continually now for 2000 years, which is ridiculous...
