Hebrews 4 – 10

March 16, 2014

Bible Text: Hebrews 4-10 |

Series:

Key Scriptures: Hebrews 4-Hebrews 10; Leviticus 16; Ephesians 2
Key Points
  • Hebrews possibly originates as a sermon
  • Chapters 4-10 involve a layering or laminating of truth
  • Key principle: the law is a shadow of the reality of Christ – the law points to Jesus
  • Key illustration: Jesus as the great High Priest
  • By the time of Jesus, the High Priest and the Temple were intrinsically linked
  • Jesus walks from the Holy of Holies to the Cross
  • Jesus abolishes the relational and social divisions displayed  in the architecture of the Temple
  • When we give financially we are ultimately giving to the unique work of Christ and the building of the Kingdom of God in and through the local church
  • We are giving to Big Vision!
Personal Application Questions
  • Is the magnitude of the generous work of Christ reflected in my regular giving?
  • How am I committed to bridging the walls of division in society,  which Christ abolished on the Cross?
