A Study of Hebrews
10-Week Sermon Series
Autumn 2015
"In the past God spoke to our forefathers through the prophets at many times and in various ways, but in these last days he has spoken to us by his Son, whom he appointed heir of all things, and through whom he made the universe. The Son is the radiance of God's glory, and the exact representation of his being, sustaining all things by his powerful word." (Hebrews 1:1-3)
Hebrews was written so that:
-
We will exalt the Messiah above all things
-
We will grasp the greatness of our salvation
-
We will persevere in times of persecution
-
We will see Jesus as High Priest and Mediator of a New Covenant
In particular, Hebrews speaks to:
-
Our fear of death
-
Overcoming temptation
-
The right and wrong place for sex
-
The power of encouragement
