Hebrews 10 | Jason Montano lead Pastor by Mosaic Church

Chapter nine brings the Old Testament tabernacle to the forefront to explain how Jesus is the perfect High Priest and sacrifice. The old covenant was a place holder for when the perfect sacrifice would come, which was Jesus. He did only what he could do, which was to complete the old law to usher in the new covenant between God and humans. But it would cost the very blood of the messiah to be shed.

Chapter 7 turns our attention to a name we have already heard several times in the book of Hebrews, Melchizedek. This mysterious figure mentioned only one other time in Genesis seems to have a deep connection to proof that Jesus is the perfect High Priest, but in what ways? How can someone who seems to have such a small; role in the history of Israel have such an important role in proving the permanent and perfect priesthood of Jesus?

By Faith | Part 6: Hebrews 6 | Ashley Thomas by Mosaic Church

Hebrews 5 reminds us that Jesus is our perfect High Priest, chosen by God, who really gets our struggles because He faced suffering. That suffering brought Jesus to a place of obedience to the will of the Father. The chapter also pushes us to keep growing in our faith, not staying stuck in the basics, but becoming stronger and deeper in our relationship with God.

Jesus’ superiority over angels and Moses has been established. Now the author turns to compare how the Hebrews entered the rest of the promised land, and how that same rest is offered in a greater way to us through Jesus. We must take guard to stay close to the what the Word of God teaches us, so that we stay strong until the end.

Hebrews 2 starts with a clear warning…we cannot miss that Jesus has offered us salvation once and for all. Jesus did what we could not do, he lived a sinless life so that He could save us. Now, he has become the perfect high priest for humanity and our representative before God.

Forgiven | Part 3: Forgive Don't Cancel | Jason Montano by Mosaic Church

Forgiveness is a concept that so many talk about, and desire from others. We say “I am sorry,” but what does it look like to truly forgive someone and to also receive forgiveness? When we explore the words and actions of Jesus, we can learn the one and true meaning of forgiveness and how to forgive others.

Forgiven | Part 2: Forgiven and Free | Scott Moore by Mosaic Church

After Jesus left his disciples with the mission to spread the word about His death and resurrection, the word was spreading like wildfire. However, a big problem rose up. The Jewish people were blending salvation through Jesus, while believing they must keep the Law of Moses as well. Do they keep doing sacrifices and rituals, or have they all ended when Jesus rose from the dead? And for us today, do we have to do Christian things to keep our relationship with Jesus? The gospel is much simpler then we understand.
