How much more…

For if the blood of bulls and goats and the ashes of a heifer, sprinkling the unclean, sanctifies for the purifying of the flesh, how much more shall the blood of Christ, who through the eternal Spirit offered Himself without spot to God, cleanse your conscience from dead works to serve the living God?
–Hebrews 9:13-14


In Hebrews, we see how the Old Covenant is obsolete. It was a meaningful model, but it was not the real deal. Jesus is the real deal! He is everything the meaningful model was pointing to. He is the all-sufficient substitutionary sacrifice once for all. That is why the New Covenant tabernacle is superior to the Old.

What’s more—the New Covenant tabernacle is in the will of God for you. Hebrews 9:16-17 says “Where a will exists, the death of the one who made it must be established. For a will is valid only when people die, since it is never in effect while the one who made it is living.” God gave the meaningful model while still living. But God died to give you the real deal—because the real deal was in His will for you!

The only way He could give it to you was to give His life for you—to save you from your sin. Jesus died to give you the real deal—an all sufficient substitutionary sacrifice once for all time. A sacrifice that completely cleanses the conscience. A sacrifice that provides eternal security with full access to God the Father.

And because of what He accomplished, and because it is finished, and because in Him you have forgiveness from your sin, you can now boldly and eternally enter into the Holy of Holies—full and complete access to God and full and complete fellowship with God…forever!

Not all the blood of beasts 
on Jewish altars slain,
could give the guilty conscience peace, 
or wash away the stain.
But Christ, the heavenly Lamb, 
takes all our sins away,
a sacrifice of nobler name 
and richer blood than they.

    From Pastor Dom...

    When I first gave my life to Jesus, there were friends in my life who helped me to grow in my understanding of God, through His word, and for those friends
    ​I am forever thankful.

    I want you to know that you have a friend in this fight.

    Someone who is here to help you to grow in your understanding of God, through His word.

    I invite you to enter in to the never-ending adventure of knowing, loving, obeying and enjoying God.

    You will not regret it.

    ​Your friend,
    ​
    Dom
