Greater Temple

March 7, 2017 by Brad Murphy Leave a Comment

We all face different struggles and sorrows. We work to find leaders, religious institutions, and spiritual experiences that will give us hope. We live in a time of restlessness and anxiety. The writer of the book of Hebrews encourages us to find Jesus and experience Him because He is Greater than the Temple. 

Remember that you have been purified, you are a promise, and you are perfected for all time in Christ Jesus. No longer slaves to fear. No longer chained to our mistakes and failures. No longer without hope! Jesus’ work is greater than any earthly temple, ritual, or priest. He makes temple work, priestly confession, and animal sacrifice obsolete. No more shedding of blood needed. His work is profoundly internal, intensely spiritual, and deeply personal.

  1. Purified for WORSHIP | Hebrews 9:1-14
    Jesus has been cleansed for worship and He has become the light of the world (Candle stand), the bread of life (Table of Show Bread), the fragrant offering (Altar of Incense), and shed blood for the forgiveness of sins (Ark of the Covenant). We too have been cleansed, by the blood of Christ. We are made right with God and can enter his courts with praise and confidence.
  2. Promised for ETERNITY | Hebrews 9:15-28
    The Tent was temporary, Jesus work is Forever. Jesus died as a sacrifice ONCE FOR ALL, this makes Him greater. He gave himself as a promise of an eternal inheritance. We are friends of God, we are joint heirs with Jesus, and we are given a clear conscience.
  3. Perfected for all TIME | Hebrews 10:1-18
    In the Tent, sins were only covered for a year, but in Jesus, our sins are wiped away for all time. You are right in Jesus, it is finished; You have access into the Holy Place. We are perfected for all time.

 

This Week’s Bible Reading:

Exodus 16, 25, 30; Leviticus 16; Numbers 17; Deuteronomy 10

Greater Covenant

March 4, 2017 by Brad Murphy Leave a Comment

We all face different struggles and sorrows. We work to find leaders, religious institutions, and spiritual experiences that will give us hope. We live in a time of restlessness and anxiety. The writer of the book of Hebrews encourages us to find Jesus and experience him, because he is GREATER!

1) Greater Covenant is in HEAVEN

Hebrews 8:1 | Now the point in what we are saying is this: we have such a high priest, one who is seated at the right hand of the throne of the Majesty in heaven

2) Greater Covenant is set up by the LORD

Hebrews 8:2 | A minister in the holy places, in the true tent that the Lord set up, not man.

3) Greater Covenant is SELF SACRIFICIAL

Hebrews 8:3-4 | For every high priest is appointed to offer gifts and sacrifices; thus it is necessary for this priest also to have something to offer.  Now if he were on earth, he would not be a priest at all, since there are priests who offer gifts according to the law.

4) Greater Covenant is the ORIGINAL

Hebrews 8:5 | They serve a copy and shadow of the heavenly things. For when Moses was about to erect the tent, he was instructed by God, saying, “See that you make everything according to the pattern that was shown you on the mountain.

5) Greater Covenant is ENACTED

Hebrews 8:6 | But as it is, Christ has obtained a ministry that is as much more excellent than the old as the covenant he mediates is better, since it is enacted on better promises.

6) Greater Covenant is without FAULT

Hebrews 8:7 | For if that first covenant had been faultless, there would have been no occasion to look for a second.

7) Greater Covenant is written on HEARTS OF MEN

Hebrews 8:8-13 | For he finds fault with them when he says: Behold, the days are coming, declares the Lord, when I will establish a new covenant with the house of Israel and with the house of Judah,
 not like the covenant that I made with their fathers on the day when I took them by the hand to bring them out of the land of Egypt. For they did not continue in my covenant, and so I showed no concern for them, declares the Lord. For this is the covenant that I will make with the house of Israel after those days, declares the Lord: I will put my laws into their minds, and write them on their hearts and I will be their God, and they shall be my people. And they shall not teach, each one his neighbor and each one his brother, saying, ‘Know the Lord, for they shall all know me, from the least of them to the greatest.
For I will be merciful toward their iniquities, and I will remember their sins no more. In speaking of a new covenant, he makes the first one obsolete. And what is becoming obsolete and growing old is ready to vanish away.
