032. Hebrews 8:6-13 • "A Better Covenant" Part 1

“A Better Covenant” • Hebrews 8:6-13 – Elder Bryce Lowrance 

 

The Apostle Paul has already proven the superiority of Jesus Christ over many things in the letter to the Hebrews. He now moves toward one of the high points of the letter with Jesus being the Mediator of a better covenant. Elder Lowrance uses several examples in the Bible that show how God interacts with mankind based on various covenants. In each of these, he shows how God progressively revealed what was truly needed for salvation – perfection. That perfection is found in the everlasting covenant of grace. And since we have eternal salvation in that covenant, we now can and should worship according to the New Testament manner in simple thanksgiving.

031. Hebrews 7:1-8:6 • "The Better Way" Part 2

“The Better Way” • Hebrews 7:11-8:6 – Elder Bryce Lowrance.

Perfection, that is what is required for us to be saved and spend eternity with God in glory. That perfection did not come through the Levitical priesthood. Neither does it come from anything in man’s will or abilities. Perfection came through Jesus Christ. Our perfect Great High Priest made the perfect offering of Himself on the cross, and we are perfect in Him. 

Part 2 begins in verse 24 with the fact that Christ's priesthood is unchangeable.

029. Hebrews 7:4-10 • "Melchisedec's Superior Priesthood"

“Mechisedec’s Superior Priesthood” • Hebrews 7:4-10 – Elder Bryce Lowrance.

After a brief review of who Melchisedec was from the first three verses, Elder Lowrance teaches that he was superior to Abraham in that Abraham paid tithes to him and he blessed Abraham. If Melchisedec is greater than Abraham, a priest after that same order is greater than Abraham as well. Therefore, Jesus Christ, our Great High Priest, is greater than Abraham.

028. Hebrews 7:1-3 • "Who Is Melchisedec?" Part 2

“Who Is Mechisedec?” • Hebrews 7:1-3 – Elder Bryce Lowrance. 

Man is full of sin and therefore he is an offense to the Holy God of heaven. We need a mediator to reconcile us back to God. Jesus Christ is that mediator in the role of King/Priest. Today’s message explores the fact that God put a man named Melchisedec in the Biblical record as a clear type of Christ to show that Jesus is an everlasting priest for us! 

Part 2 begins in Hebrews 7:2 and continues through how Jesus is the fulfillment of this prophetic kingly priest.

026. Hebrews 6:11-20 • "Our Foundation of Hope" Part 2

“Our Foundation of Hope” • Hebrews 6:11-20 – Elder Bryce Lowrance.

Our world today is clearly a tumultuous mess that can bring great fear to those who do not or cannot see beyond the present terror. However, the Apostle reminds us in this passage that the children of God can have different perspective on things. When we look to and run to Jesus for refuge, we find that the trials of this world are only temporary. Jesus has already anchored our destination in heaven. So, while we sojourn here, we can have a hope of a better day.

Part 2 begins in Genesis, Chapter 22 as Abraham takes Issac up to Mount Moriah with the hope that they would both return.
