Hebrews

Page history last edited by Bonnyville Baptist Church 10 years ago

The Theme of Hebrews is that Jesus is superior to all other ways to God. He is superior to all prophets, to all priests and His path to God is superior to any other path. He is, in fact, the only path. The old covenant has been supeceded and replaced with a new covenant between us and God. Jesus is the center of that new covenant. Why does this matter?

Because there are many who claim conflicting views like:

- All religions lead to the same God.

- There are prophets today who proclaim a different message.

- There is no God.

- If there is a God we cannot know Him.

- There are other paths to happiness and well-being and we should all pursue our own path.

Hebrews refutes all these claims and shows us the path that Jesus opens up for us. It is a path that leads into the presence and knowledge of the only true God because Jesus is God. Truth by defintion is exclusive so if something is true then that which opposes it is false. Hebrews tells is that Jesus, as the Truth, means other approaches to God are false.

 

In the first section of Hebrews we discover that Jesus is superior to all other prophets and even that angels. The message of Jesus is that the old covenant God had with Israel has been superseded with a new Covenant based on the person and finished work of Jesus. He will give three of his seven warnings for rejecting this truth.

The second section of Hebrews argues that Jesus provides a superior priesthood.  In the Old Testament, a prophet was a person who spoke to man on behalf of God and a priest spoke to God on behalf of man.  Jesus changes all that.  In the first section we saw that Jesus supersedes all Prophets.  In this second section we will see that Jesus supersedes the Old Testament priesthood.  The author tells us that when we trust in Jesus we become a priest- every believer is a priest.  This means we all have direct access into the presence of God on a daily basis.  The author will also give his fourth warning to those who abandon the way of Jesus.

The Third section of Hebrews shows us that Jesus is the way to a better life.  Because we are priests and can enter directly into the presence of God we can have the life that God desires for us.  We people from the Old Covenant who model the kind of life God approves of.  We learn that faith in Jesus alone is what makes us right with God.  This reality should motivate us to strive to know and do Gods will, it should give us peace and it should give us hope.  In this section we will also see three warnings for rejecting Jesus.
