The veil was the barrier separating the Holy of Holies from the more publicly accessible areas. Few were able to enter beyond the veil, and when the priests did, they wore garments with bells on them so people could know if they were still alive or not. Temple offerings and sacrifices were brought into this area, and priests were killed if they were not sufficiently prepared before entering.
The death of Jesus signified the end of this need, as the blood of Christ was shed to cover our sins, and sacrifice was no longer necessary.
Romans 3:23 does say that we all have sinned. Romans does not say it is acceptable to sin, or support others who engage openly in a sinful lifestyle. This includes lying, stealing, drunkenness, fornication, or sodomy.
Romans 6:1-2
1 What shall we say [to all this]? Should we continue in sin and practice sin as a habit so that [God’s gift of] grace may increase and overflow? 2 Certainly not! How can we, the very ones who died to sin, continue to live in it any longer?
