Be, The Church
"IN"
We live in Christ. The Bible also doesn't give us any room to do this life alone.
Hebrews 10:25
The author of Hebrews is telling us what Christ has accomplished and why Jesus matters.
How do I have access to God?
God's holiness and His perfection actually demonstrate that His love is so much deeper, so much wider, and so much more profound than we could ever imagine.
Our hope is in a person.
Hebrews 10:19-20
Mark 15:37-38
Hebrews 10:21
So, let us draw near to God so we can draw near to one another. That’s the “IN.”
John 15:9
Hebrews 10:24-25
"Scripture knows nothing of a solitary Christian. People of faith are always members of a community. God never works with individuals in isolation but always with people in community."
Eugene Peterson, A Long Obedience
"…the Christian needs another Christian who speaks God's Word to him. He needs him again and again when he becomes uncertain, when he becomes discouraged, for by himself the Christian cannot help himself."
Dietrich Bonhoeffer, Life Together
