HEBREWS CHAPTER 10:32-39 After the fourth great warning to the Hebrew Christians which we spoke of in verses 26-31, the first church of Jesus Christ, who had stood faithfully for 30-40 years, were then faced with the temptation of abandoning their living faith in Jesus Christ and loving community with one another. Their severe warning [...]
HEBREWS 10:26-31 THE FOURTH GREAT WARNING TO CHRISTIAN BRETHREN IN THE BOOK OF HEBREWS We have previously brought out the realities of Christ’s two-part Atonement application (Matthew 28:19-20 that answers to its two teachings). Firstly, that of the wondrous welcome into the Holiest Place, and that through the one-time event of justifying faith in the [...]
HEBREWS 10:15-22 To review, let’s read verses 9-14… Then said he (the Son), Lo, I come to do thy will, O God (the Father). He taketh away the first (testament), that he may establish the second. By the which will (the second testament) we are sanctified through the offering of the body of Jesus Christ [...]
HEBREWS CHAPTER 10:1-13 THE RESULTS OF HIS SACRIFICE VERSE 1 “FOR…” ties this verse back to the last verse of Hebrews Chapter 9… “So Christ was once offered to bear the sins of many; (as the Sacrifice and High Priest) and unto them that look for him (not now as Redeemer, but as King of [...]
HEBREWS CHAPTER 9 VERSES 16-28 CERTAIN PRINCIPLES THAT ARE BEING ESTABLISHED IN THE 9th CHAPTER OF HEBREWS: 1) “Covenant” is far different from “Testament”…effectively as far apart as Law is from Mercy and Grace. 2) THE HIGH PRIEST OFFICE LOOKS TO THE FORGIVENESS OF SIN and Redemption. WHEREAS THE MEDIATOR OFFICE LOOKS ON TO THE [...]
HEBREWS 9:11-15 VERSES 11 & 12 “But Christ being come a high priest of good things to come, by a greater and more perfect tabernacle, not made with hands, that is to say, not of this building; Neither by the blood of goats and calves, but by his own blood he entered in once into [...]
HEBREWS 9:1-10 Keep in mind the differences we have spoke about in lessons past. One being that the instructive words of the Book of Hebrews defines for us the differences between Jesus Christ’s Great Atonement as the “Gospel” or Good news for Christian believers, while also holding out the realities of His all-inclusive Redemption/reformation/correction as [...]
CHAPTER 8 - THE HEAVENLY TABERNACLE There can be no understanding of the heavenly tabernacle without the understanding of the earthly tabernacle. (This Epistle in particular should inspire all to study the Old Covenant.) The earthly copy, which is highlighted by the Holy Spirit in chapters 7-11, is the pattern presented for the purpose of drawing and attracting our attention to the original in Heaven. The 16th chapter of Leviticus [...]
HEBREWS CHAPTER 7 verses 20-28 Melchizedek, the ancient king of Salem, having been mentioned in passing to the sluggish Hebrew Christians, now in this chapter is taken up by Paul in earnest, in hope of their minds and hearts being more prepared for deeper instruction. Paul’s argument here centers on Jesus Christ/Son of Man, who [...]
HEBREWS CHAPTER 7:1-19 The first verses of Chapter 7 takes us to the events recorded by Moses in Genesis regarding Melchizedek, who Paul has twice mentioned in his argument in chapters past and then paused, and now takes him up in earnest to show us God’s meaning in the history recorded. Paul is looking forward [...]
