As we delve deeper into the book of Hebrews, it is becoming apparent that the writer is an intellectual giant! In his letter the writer expounds on a multitude of allegorical threads: Patterns; copies; shadows; and mystical priest-kings. Then, after wandering in the intellectual park for a bit, the writer will hit us with a powerful truth. Last week we were introduced to the “better covenant”, a testament from God that delivers to mankind what the writer describes as 'a better hope:' The New Covenant .
This new covenant that was declared by the prophet Jeremiah, and fulfilled in Jesus Christ, is not just a new ‘religious rite” that replaces Judaism. This new covenant is the biggest thing to ever hit this planet! It is an incredibly unique and powerful testament that reaches into the very core of humanity…
- It answers the fundamental questions of life
- It addresses the fundamental problem of mankind
- It ushers a human being into that ‘one place’ that we so desperately long for but can never seem to reach through our own efforts…
- Money cannot buy it…
- Fame doesn’t bring it…
- Pleasures cannot experience it…
Join us Sunday as we explore Gods incredible gift to man - The New Covenant.
