Once for All
Hebrews 10.1-18 What more is there to say? Jesus paid it all. His once for all sacrifice…willingly giving Himself, perfect obedience to the Father…wiped out sin for all time. Every single one. For those who believe. And because of that, the enemy can no longer hold our sin against us. Guilt and shame need no longer be a weapon we allow him to use to beat us down. That’s not a free pass to sin…

The Mediator of a New Covenant
Hebrews 9.15-28 Jesus is the Mediator of a New Covenant. A covenant that has been inaugurated with His own shed blood. A covenant by which He has put away sin for all time for those who believe in Him by the sacrifice of Himself. Jesus has taken care of the sin problem. For everyone who believes. And because He’s taken care of the sin problem (the root), all our sins (fruit) are forgiven. That…

The Old and the New
Hebrews 9.1-14 The old and the new. The copies and shadows vs. the Substance. Paul said it before, but may we never get tired of hearing it…we have such a High Priest. All that the OT anticipated…all that the sacrifices looked forward to…the pictures and the symbols. All of it. Is now fulfilled in Jesus. What the blood of bulls and goats could never fully accomplish, Jesus did. They covered sin…

Easter - A Living Hope
1 Peter 1 Jesus changes everything! Because of His death and resurrection we have a living hope…a hope that’s alive because Jesus is alive and a faith that continues to grow and mature as we follow Him. We need not live a life of fear, though the world around us is shaking, we can have confidence knowing that the temporary things may fade, but the kingdom remains. So let us live as sojourners…

A Greater Covenant
Hebrews 8.1-13 As the Mediator of a better covenant which has been enacted on better promises, Jesus has a more excellent ministry. And we are the beneficiaries of that ministry. No longer do we have to rely on the copies and shadows because we have the Substance. Jesus fulfills all that the OT foreshadowed, pictured, prophesied and promised. I said it last week, but let me reiterate…we may…

A Greater Priesthood
Hebrews 7.11-28 Jesus is greater. In every way, Jesus is greater. He serves in a greater priesthood and is Himself both the perfect Sacrifice and the perfect High Priest. He saves forever those who have trusted in Him, always making intercession for them before the Father, having provided the way for them to draw near to God through Him. I think as Gentile Christians it’s a bit harder for us to…

A Priest in the Order of Melchizedek
Hebrews 7.1-10 Melchizedek was greater than Abraham. How do we know? The honor that Abraham showed towards him by giving him a tenth of the spoils, but also by the blessing that Melchizedek pronounced over Abraham. And since Abraham in turn is greater than his descendants, including Levi and Aaron, Melchizedek is also greater. And as a priest then, his priesthood is greater than that of…

A Sure Hope
Hebrews 6.9-20 Having started well, the challenge is to finish well. Not to be sluggish, but to be diligent. To imitate the example of those who demonstrated faith and patience as they waited on God…like a guy named Abraham. Suffering can be very confusing. Especially suffering for the faith. Persecution has a way of making a person question his or her life choices. Am I doing the right thing?…

The Danger of Falling Away
Hebrews 6.1-8 Press on to maturity. Keep trekking down Torah Road. Live the life that you were saved for. Invest your mina well. Because if not…the picture is pretty grim. For the exodus generation, it was a lifetime of wandering in the wilderness. For these Hebrew believers, the LORD’s discipline might look somewhat different, but their lives would likewise fall short of what the LORD intended…
