In this message, we will continue to see how Jesus is better in every way. Today specifically, we will see that Jesus provides us with a better sanctuary and a better Priestley service. When it is all said and done, there is none like Jesus in all the earth. May we never be deceived into receiving anything in His place?
Today as we begin our study in the book of Hebrews, we will have a brief introduction to the book. Then we will begin with our first message on why Jesus is so much better! This letter was written to discouraged and persecuted Jewish believers. Some were so discouraged they were considering turning back to Judaism and leaving their faith in Christ. This letter serves to encourage them to continue with Christ because he is so much better than everything they left behind in Judaism. I pray that we will discover as we continue through this book that Jesus is so much better than anything we may have left behind or turned away from to pursue Him. Be blessed.
Mark 14:1-9 (The Sacrifice of Praise)
Zechariah 7:1-14 (Obedience is > Sacrifice)
In today’s message as we end the book of Hebrews. We will have many closing exhortations. Hebrews moves from the theological conversation to practical instruction for Christian living. We will deal with church leadership, sound doctrine, sacrifice, and perseverance. The goal is to allow deep theology to grow into everyday obedience.
In our final study of Hebrews 11, we see what individuals accomplished by faith, we see what communities of people who trusted God together accomplished by faith, and will also learn about enduring faith. Faith doesn’t just get things done, Faith is also able to endure hardship while trusting God. We pray that this message strengthens you in your faith, that you may continue to trust in, walk with, and patiently wait for God's will to be accomplished in your life.
In today’s message, we will introduce our series through Hebrews 11 titled “Real Faith”. We will define what faith is, detail what faith does, and begin our journey through those who God has raised up as examples for us of people who lived by Faith. I pray that this message and this entire series which challenge, stir, and provoke all of us to live by Faith
In this chapter, we learn some wonderful things about the priesthood of Jesus, and it seems that the writer of Hebrews has more he wishes he could say, but his audience has become “Dull of Hearing”. We will learn some principles that will help us to have sensitive ears to the voice of God and not become dull of hearing.
In today’s message, we will answer the question, “Can a person lose their salvation”? The writer of Hebrews gives a stern warning, but he also gives wisdom to the believer that may be struggling. I pray that we would walk away from this message with a greater understanding of our salvation and how we can be assured of it.
In today’s message, the writer of Hebrews is exhorting these believers who have become dull of hearing to move forward into maturity. We will look at six foundational tenants of the Christian faith that every believer should be aware of. Our prayer is that we would also grow into maturity in Christ.
