Hebrews: The True, God-Prepared Sacrifice

It was a scary thing to approach God in the Old Testament. In fact only one person could do it only once a year... the high priest. But New Testament believers are urged in Hebrews to approach God full of boldness and confidence. How is this possible? We will study the wonderful privilege Christ has provided for us that gives us unlimited and assured access to God anytime... as well as a glorious entrance into heaven!

Hebrews: A Great High Priest and the New Covenant

The writer of the book of Hebrews is so excited in chapter 8. He can hardly contain himself because we Christians are so blessed. He opens up in wonderful detail that we have 1.) A Great High Priest and 2.) We are in the New Covenant. Here we will be reminded again of how blessed we really are and thrilled to study how good God has been to us.

Hebrews: The Superiority of Jesus’ Priesthood

A carpenter from Nazareth has become the God appointed High Priest through whom everyone must come to God!! That sounded ludicrous to Jewish ears (and still does). The writer to the Hebrews explains how this has been God's plan all along and proves it with the Bible. Then, in an amazing way, he shows us the wonderful implications for believers to have Jesus as our forever High Priest. Learn in a deeper way what a wonderful thing it is to have Jesus as your High Priest representing you to the Father. It will revolutionize your life.

2 Peter: The God Appointed Add-ons

Some Christians feel that it is enough just to get saved and get one's ticket to heaven. God strongly disagrees and says so through the Apostle Peter. God wants us to add-on to our faith seven qualities according to this passage. These qualities give us a unique picture of what God wants us to become.

2 Peter: The Profound Impact of Knowing God

Following the exposition of 1 Peter we are moving right into 2 Peter. What would motivate a man like Peter to introduce himself as a slave of Jesus Christ. How could a person so deeply give up all rights and privileges to offer himself and all he is to Jesus? This illustrates the profound impact knowing God has upon a person... the theme explored in this message.
