Jesus is the Better Son

Hebrews 2:5-18

May 12, 2024 • Pastor Bill Riedel • Hebrews 2:5–18

On Sunday we will step back into our series in Hebrews with Hebrews 2:5-18. This is a beautiful passage that emphasizes the reality and truth that God came near to us in the incarnation of Jesus. The incarnation is foundational to our faith. Jesus became our brother so that we could be brought into the family of God. I can’t wait to dig into the text with you on Sunday.

Jesus is the Better Judge

September 29, 2024 • Pastor Bill Riedel • Hebrews 10:26–39

As we continue into the application side of the epistle, we will see the truth of God’s holiness, a warning for us, and a call for how to live.

Jesus is the Better Way

September 15, 2024 • Pastor Bill Riedel • Hebrews 10:19–25

It’s a major shift in the letter because after 9+ chapters of theology, we now turn to application. What does it all mean that Jesus is the true and better Word, Moses, High Priest, Tabernacle, blood, sacrifice, etc.? The gospel is not confined to mere concepts or theological reflection. The good news of Jesus Christ makes an impact in every aspect of our lives, impacting our hearts, our minds, and our lives. On Sunday we will begin to see what that looks like.

Jesus is the Better Sacrifice

September 8, 2024 • Pastor Bill Riedel • Hebrews 10:1–18

We are right in the heart of the letter, and in the meat of what the author has been driving toward throughout. In our passage on Sunday we will see that “Jesus is the Better Sacrifice.” In contrast with the repetitiveness of the old covenant and sacrificial system that required priests to offer sacrifices day after day, week after week, and year after year, Jesus came and died as the sacrifice that cleanses us from sin once and for all. We will take time to explore the deep need that every human being has for forgiveness, the emptiness of the methods we follow to try to ease our own consciences, and the hope that we find in the gospel.
