Hebrews 5.1-10
Did you learn anything?
Intro:
Faith leads to Obedience which is expressed through our willingness to Hear which is the same as our obedience and is acted out in our Doing.
(pause)
And so we will not do anything………….without
hearing…………and if we have really heard………..than we ought to obey………
(pause)
And…………real obedience does not happen……….without
faith!
(pause)
Because any action taken says to some degree………I believe in what I am being told or in who I am being asked by…..
(pause)
And that’s why………….whenever
we are asked to do something………..and we are failing to be obedient………..the next question is always…………
“Did…………..you hear me?”
(pause)
Because if you heard me…………and you chose not to move…………it communicates that either you don’t believe in my words…………or the power behind my words and their benefit……..
(pause)
And generally speaking………we tend to believe that obedience is not necessary……
(pause)
But…….whenever
there is a lesson to be learned………..it always involves obedience…….
(pause)
And there is absolutely no way……….to
get out of neutral……..and live a beneficial life…….without
obedience!
And the Hebrew writer is again assessing the audience and recommending strongly what is necessary for a beneficial life!
And………..the reason we are engaged by the thought of this writer……….is
because the worst thing we could do…………is to refuse the lesson!
(pause)
And the quickest way………………to get kicked out of the classroom is to disrespect the teacher…………and operate with an attitude that says…………I’m not here to learn!
(pause)
And so the Hebrew writer begins this lesson….. in verses 1-6
5.1-6 (Summarize)
And according to the text…………the writer begins with how one is selected for this role of High priest and their function.
The writer says……
It is their service to offer both gifts and sacrifices on behalf of the sins of the people to God…..
(pause)
And they are helpful to the people but they are limited in what they can do.
Because before they can offer anything for anybody else………they have to first give a purification offering for themselves…..because they cannot come into God’s presence with their own sin.
(pause)
And so then the writer goes on to say…………..that this role is a role of honor……….and
nobody takes it upon themselves………..to place honor on themselves…………
But because God is superior to everything else…………….it is only God who has the audacity to call……….a
person into this role
(pause)
And so it is God………….who
invites Aaron into the role of High priest……….and
it is God who invites Christ into the role of High priest
And it is here that we find the writer introducing the Superiority of Christ into the role of High Priest…..
Because the Hebrew writer observes Christ to have been chosen by God to be High Priest……….
But there is a difference between an Aaron in the Old Testament……..and a Jesus Christ in the New Testament………
Because although they are chosen by the same God……….there is greater capacity in Jesus Christ………
As a matter of fact……….even as High Priest Aaron needed a Moses to speak to, and hear from God………
(pause)
Because even though Aaron enters into the presence of God in the holies of holies……….in
, God tells Moses……….
“Tell your brother……….he
can’t just come into my presence whenever he gets ready, because behind the veil in front of the mercy seat is where I show up!”
(pause)
And I like the way the Hebrew writer says it………..
Because according to the text………the role of High Priest from an Christological perspective is a merger of the royal office and the priestly office.
(pause)
Because he is a descendant of David…………and the Son of God………..and as king………and priest………he is then Messiah!
(pause)
And………..the power of seeing Christ as High priest is in a reconciliation mode of intercession………….which
stands between God who is fully divine……….and
humanity who is fully human…….
(pause)
And……….successfully
reach in both directions…………..
And not only that……….but
allows us unlimited access
(pause and expound)
Look at it now…………because it’s powerful to see Christ working this out!
5.7 (Read)
According to the text………..here is one of the first lessons……….
(pause)
“Because in the days of his flesh he offered up prayers and supplications”
(pause)
Meaning………
As much as we see in Christ…………as he operated on earth………the one thing that we saw him doing consistently was……….praying
(pause)
And………….with
everything that Christ had to face in his life……….if he was ever going to get through it………….to
fulfill his purpose…………the one thing he had to do……………….was
pray
(pause)
And the text says…………….not
only prayer but also…………supplications….
a. And………….what this shows…………….is
that whenever someone wanted to communicate that they needed assistance they would plead for help by holding an olive branch intertwined with white wool signifying that they are in need of peace…….
(pause)
And so what the Hebrew writer does is specify an example in which the prayers and supplications of Christ……………were marked with strong crying………..and tears………..
(pause)
Because you really don’t understand the lesson………..until you have seen someone fighting for you just because that’s their purpose…………
(pause)
And the Hebrew writer………..says I want you to think about at least 2 examples……………
