God can strengthen his suffering people with all might in the inner man, to all patience and long-suffering, and that with joyfulness, Colossians 1:11. 10:1-10 Because the law is only a pale shadow of the blessings which are to come and not a real image of these things, it can never really fit for the fellowship of God those who seek to draw near to his presence with the sacrifices which have to be brought year by year and which go on for ever.

To trample upon an ordinary person shows intolerable insolence; to treat a person of honour in that vile manner is insufferable; but to deal thus with the Son of God, who himself is God, must be the highest provocation--to trample upon his person, denying him to be the Messiah--to trample upon his authority, and undermine his kingdom--to trample upon his members as the offscouring of all things, and not fit to live in the world; what punishment can be too great for such men? In all the covenants of scripture the man that makes it has never to die for any such end. For we know who it was who said: "Vengeance belongs to me; it is I who will repay," and again: "The Lord will judge his people." It's complete, the cleansing in the blood of Jesus Christ is complete, and the blood of Jesus Christ God's Son cleanses.

"In those sacrifices," referring to the law to which some Hebrew Christians were in danger of going back, "there is a remembrance made again of sins every year. I am accepted in Jesus Christ. Viewed from the perspective of the homiletical and literary structure of Hebrews, this concluding exhortation is symmetrical with the preliminary exhortation found in Hebrews 5:11 to Hebrews 6:20 . The exhortation is based on a number of considerations, among which are these: (1) We have a great high priest who has opened up the new and living way through the veil, that is to say, his flesh.

Now this was under the old covenant, and had it been effective, once being cleansed, they should have no more conscience of sins. (a) He may not go to church because of fear.

We belong to the holiest of all, and we act upon it, if we iet rightly, when we worship God; nay, when we draw near to God in prayer at all times. But the answer to this is, that there is not a single writer in the language, not sacred only but profane, who employs it in such a sense. By faith we understand ( Hebrews 11:1 and 11:3 ). For Christ, on whom the promises depend. The Jews themselves acknowledge that Psalms 110:1-7 must be fulfilled in Christ, in His quality of Messiah. "Then would they not have ceased to be offered?".

If, therefore, when you find the word "testament" anywhere else in the authorized version, you turn it into "covenant" in my opinion you will not do amiss. For a similar reason we never find life treated in the epistle, nor righteousness. The Full Assurance of Faith. These things were only foreshadowing His coming. The priests under the law were to wash, before they went into the presence of the Lord to offer before him. Thus another and a higher priesthood was incontestably acknowledged by the father of the faithful.

Thus the only time when he comes into notice he is acting in the double capacity here spoken of: King of righteousness as to his name, King of Salem as to his place, blessing Abraham on his return from the victory over the kings of the Gentiles in the name of the Most High God, and blessing the Most High God the possessor of heaven earth in the name of Abraham. it is not the dulness of Jewish prejudice only, but exactly what is denied by every system of which men boast in Christendom.

It only covered their sins. But this shows the main object of the Spirit of God in directing us for the type that applies to the believer now to an unsettled pilgrim-condition, not to Israel established in the land of promise. For the sacrifice of Jesus Christ is complete. He goes out, deliberately and knowingly, just at the time of life when a man is most sensitive to the value of a grand sphere of influence, as well as exercise of his powers, wherein, too, he could have ordinarily exerted all in favour of his people. To mark that as yet the veil was unrent. When does it first appear? I could now be made one with God. At the end of the day it is not all one for the good and the bad man alike.

Hebrews 9:1-28 brings us into the types of the Levitical ritual, priesthood and sacrifice. He is thinking of the Second Coming of Christ when things as we know them will be ended. Thus does the apostle reason on it: "For if the blood of bulls and goats, and the ashes of an heifer sprinkling the unclean, sanctifieth to the purifying of the flesh" (which the Jew would not contest): "how much more shall the blood of Christ, who through the eternal Spirit offered himself without spot to God, purge your conscience from dead works to do religious service to the living God? (3.) In order that in this body, He might become the perfect, complete sacrifice for man. None but the Old Testament saints, as a class, can all be in the separate state: not the church, or New Testament saints, for we shall not all sleep; nor the millennial saints, for none of them will die. The apostle is dealing with the saints as to their walk; and as he had shown how Christ alone had purged the sins of the believer, and how He is on high, as the Priest in the presence of God, to intercede for them in their weakness and dangers; so now, when he is come to the question of the walk of faith, Christ is the leader of that, walk.
