INTRODUCTION:
1 For since the law has but a shadow of the good things to come instead of the true form of these realities, it can never, by the same sacrifices that are continually offered every year, make perfect those who draw near.
law has but a shadow of the good things to come - The law was ultimate.
it can never - Since we have to keep doing, it was not designed to make perfect.
2 Otherwise, would they not have ceased to be offered, since the worshipers, having once been cleansed, would no longer have any consciousness of sins?
if they were designed to make you perfect, why would God make you do it every years.
Furthermore, you still remember the sins even after.
Because God has forgotten your sins, you can leave them behind.
3 But in these sacrifices there is a reminder of sins every year.
4 For it is impossible for the blood of bulls and goats to take away sins.
IT was never about the Old Testament sacrifices, but those were a reminder than those sins bring death.
5 Consequently, when Christ came into the world, he said,
“Sacrifices and offerings you have not desired,
but a body have you prepared for me;
6 in burnt offerings and sin offerings
you have taken no pleasure.
7 Then I said, ‘Behold, I have come to do your will, O God,
as it is written of me in the scroll of the book.’ ”
This is actually a quote from Psalm 40 - Did Jesus quote this?.....
sacrifices and offerings you have not desired. (similar to mercy not sacrifice)
but a body you have prepared for me. -
God was never intereested in the sacrifices!
8 When he said above, “You have neither desired nor taken pleasure in sacrifices and offerings and burnt offerings and sin offerings” (these are offered according to the law), 9 then he added, “Behold, I have come to do your will.” He does away with the first in order to establish the second.
He is saying that no longer do we need to follow the old, but instead follow Jesus into the new one.
10 And by that will we have been sanctified through the offering of the body of Jesus Christ once for all.
Point 2
11 And every priest stands daily at his service, offering repeatedly the same sacrifices, which can never take away sins.
Always working, the job is never done because the sin isn;t paid for yet.
12 But when Christ had offered for all time a single sacrifice for sins, he sat down at the right hand of God,
HE SAT DOWN. his job was done. Much less, it was
13 waiting from that time until his enemies should be made a footstool for his feet.
footstool for his feet - end times. Already/not yet.
14 For by a single offering he has perfected for all time those who are being sanctified.
perfected - you are perfect! in the perfect tense.
being sanctified - present tense. ongoing. We are perfect and still being perfected at the same time. (MAYBE A POINT HERE??)
15 And the Holy Spirit also bears witness to us; for after saying,
16 “This is the covenant that I will make with them
after those days, declares the Lord:
I will put my laws on their hearts,
and write them on their minds,”
17 then he adds,
“I will remember their sins and their lawless deeds no more.”
18 Where there is forgiveness of these, there is no longer any offering for sin.
If he does not remember than anymore, than he doesn’t need a sacrifice for them either.
