Today’s program wraps up Matt’s study of the book of Hebrews, and the Ascension. No less divine nor human, Christ sits on the right hand of God, as our High Priest Matt starts with Hebrews 12:28 and continues into chapter 13 Our lives should be in service to him (Hebrews 12:28-29, 13:1-25; 1 Timothy 6:10)
The topic of the Ascension continues in Hebrews chapter 11. Pastor Matt shortly reviews portions of Hebrews chapter 11 and then begins in chapter 12 verse. These subjects are covered: Sanctification Glorification Justification Pastor Matt also briefly what Zion and Zionism is and is not. (Hebrews 11:1, 12:1-17)
The Hebrews study continues in Chapter 11. A chapter where the word “Faith” is used 25 times. Faith, with an eye on the future. Salvation- By Faith through Grace! Chapter 12:1-3, Jesus the Author, Finisher, Perfector of Our Faith. (Hebrews 11:1-40, 12:1-3)
In Hebrews 10 the study of Christs Ascension continues. Matt picks up today’s broadcast in Hebrews 10: 19 thru 11:2. God/Christ made your soul, only he can rescue it. Chapter 9:1, Grace is not a license to sin. Chapter 9:7 sin of ignorance. Hebrews 10:38 references to Habakkuk 2. (Hebrews 10:19-39, 11:1-2; Habakkuk 2)
The study in Hebrews of the Ascension of Christ continues in chapter 10. Today Matt continues to show how the word “For” is being used to point back to previous scriptures to explain a though thoroughly. Hebrews 9:6-12 points toward Hebrews 10. Matt draws attention to how the word “For” is used 10 times in this chapter. 1, 4, 8, 14, 15, 16, 17, 19, and 24. The reestablishment of the Temple practices (Old Covenant) is a sin against God’s…
The study in Hebrews of the Ascension of Christ continues in chapter 9 verse 10. Matt points out how the word “For” is used (many times) as an explanatory note, often referring back to reinforce a previous point of scripture. Matt also points out that God needs nothing, owns everything. Before the creation of time and space, He was in perfect union within the Trinity complete and whole. God “chose” to create. The new covenant comes in – the old…
The Hebrews study continues with chapter 7:25 and continues through chapter 8. We will do well if we trust Jesus, he fits our needs! The main point of Hebrews 8:1 is that Jesus is our High Priest. (Hebrews 7:25-28, Exodus 20, Hebrews 8:1-13)
He has not gone away to Heaven but gone before to heaven and is our High Priest there today. The study continues in Hebrews beginning in chapter 6. God has made a promise to himself. (Hebrews 6:4-7, 6:9-20, 7:1-28, 8:1-3, Psalm 110:4)
