About this sermon

If it seems at any point that the themes in Hebrews are repetitive, remember what we are doing. We are examining, in a systematic way, what is really a sermon. Like any good sermon, the writer of Hebrews is pursuing a straight course. He has a main point and he has a pastoral purpose. His main point is to show that the Lord Jesus Christ and the good things that have come with His appearing are perfectly sufficient. Jesus is better and everything that has come with Jesus is better. Jesus is the better priest. He is the better sacrifice, and He mediates a better covenant. No doubt believers having and will continue to suffer persecution. We need to be reminded that this is not our home, that we are looking for a better city, for a homeland, and the builder of that city is God. Follow Christ faithfully and we won’t feel at home in this world.
