Transcript

I will burst wound.

And it says this.

Bible bath right?

OK.

Well, since there's only a shadow of the good things to come and not very form of.

Of the things.

Can never by the same sacrifices which they were offered, continuing year by year, make perfect those who draw nearer.

Now we see that the writer of Hebrews have talked about the Tabernacle being the shadow of the one in heaven, and now he's talking about the law being the shadow.

So I want to take a moment and talk about shadows.

Shadows can be scary.

And Shadows can make us think that there's some value.

But usually both will go wrong and I'll give you a couple of examples both in life and in in the Bible.

When I was a child.

My bed was under 2 windows.

It was in kind of a corner and there was a window to the front under the window.

The side and the side window.

There was our porch.

And one night.

I the first light.

Was on and I was trying to sleep.

And I saw what appeared to be a man moving in the shadows.

Being a child.

Little concerned, so I cried out for my mom.

She came in, turned on the light and it disappeared.

So she turned off the light loop.

And then the shadow reappeared and moved around and again got scared, called out, turned on the light.

You disappeared or what we discovered because of the wind that evening, and because of the porch light.

We had a banana tree.

By the window and when the wind was blowing, it would move the banana lens, making it look like a man.

And so.

Not many days after that we took that banana tree down, but it was a shadow that shadow could never hurt me.

The Scriptures also will talk about a shadow, it says.

When the Lord.

Is our shepherd.

Even though we walked through the valley of the shadow of death.

We fear no evil or you see for the believer death is a shadow.

It is not real.

We have eternal life.

The shadow simply hits us and has no effect.

Now there is a reality to death that is after the judgment.

For those who are unbelievers, that they will be cast into the pit.

And they will experience the separation internally from God, and that is the second death.

So there is a shadow.

It doesn't affect us because shadows can't, but there is a real one.

Shadows are not necessarily effective.

I give you an example.

If you were to see a truck and passage, the truck would cast its shadow on the ground.

You could take your furniture and put it on the shadow.

And the shadow could even move because the sun moves, but your furniture will stay exactly where it is because the shadow has no power to move anything.

It's a shadow.

If you need to move something, you need to put it in the truck, not the shadow.

The writer of Hebrews is telling us that the law was a shadow.

It wasn't the reality, it was only to give us a precursor of the real.

But that just as the shadow of the truck can't do anything, he's going to say here.

That the shadow of.

The law has not is not affect.

This is for the law, since it says only a shadow of the good things to come and not the very form can never by the same sacrifices which they offer continually, year by year, make perfect those who draw near.

Otherwise they would have not, they were not ceased to be offered because the worshipper, having once been cleansed, would no longer have had consciousness of sin.

He he goes.

If Bush law, which required offerings.

Were effective, you would only need it once.

Because then the sins would be forgiven and we move on and it would cease.

But that is not the case of the law.

They were acquired over and over continually year by year.

So he says, if they were effective, the law would have caused the.

Legal offerings to cease because the worshipper would have been cleansed from his conscience, but in those sacrifices there is a reminder of sin year by year.

You see the differences.

The law did not remove sin.

The law did not.

Coverson it reminded the center that he was simple because every year.

You would place your hands upon a sacrifice so that the sacrifice would be identified with you, and then they would slaughter the animal and take his blood and present the offering.

And if it were a burnt offering, place it on the altar.

But you laid your hands on it, identifying with this substitution, and again the law was telling us that we needed a substitute.

Now it's interesting here.

But again it reminds the Sinner.

Jesus instead of in essence, if you will.

US placing our hands on him, saying he's our substitute.

Jesus did something different.

Jesus became human.

That he identified with us.

And in that identity he then was able to offer himself as a sacrifice, having been identified with us, because he is holy God and holy human and and again, instead of us laying our hands on him, he being in human form.

Rendered that substitution or gift.

Verse 4.

But it is impossible for the blood of bulls and goats to take away sins.

See the writer telling us there was a Ness necessity for the offering.

It was to tell us.

That there was a limitation that we needed a sacrifice.

But there would be a substitution, but.

That didn't give forgiveness.

At best it gave recovering for a temporary time because it's again, it is impossible, it's not.

It's possible it is impossible for that type of offering to take away sins.

Therefore when he comes into the world, he says sacrifice and offerings, you have not desired but a body you have prepared for me and whole burnt offerings and sacrifices for sin.

You have not taken this.

You've taken no desire.

Then I said, behold, I have come in the scroll of the book.

It is written of me to do your.

Will oh God.

The writer is saying he's quoting, in essence, what Jesus is saying in the scriptures.

God wasn't pleased and it wasn't what made him happy.

If you will, that sacrifices will offer what please God was to do his will.

But even today we'll see well well, it's easier to ask for forgiveness than permission, so we'll do stuff we know violates God.

's will because we want to do it anyway and then think.

That some kind.

Of sacrifice or offering will render that OK.

And God say none of what I want is for you to do my will.

And Jesus is quoted in the scriptures by quoting the Scriptures.

But saying I took on a body.

So that I might.

Do God's will and if you see throughout the the gospels, it says that he sought to do God's will whatever God was doing. That is what he did.

So I wanted to notice something when an offering was presented, it was offering that was without blemish or defect.

Now Jesus, when he was hung on a cross.

He was beaten.

Scourge bloodied

And almost unrecognizable.

But he was still unblemished.

Because he did the will of the father.

By doing the will of the father he became the unblemished Lamb of God.

To take away the sins of the world, not to cover them, not to cause us to remember them, but to remove them from us.

After seeing above sacrifices and offerings and whole burnt offerings and sacrifices for saying you have not desired nor have you taken pleasure in them.

Which are offered according to law, then he said, behold, I have come to do your will.

So Jesus is doing what it most pleases the father to do.

His will not to be participating in offerings and burnt offerings, but to do the will of the father.

Wouldn't it be awesome if our church?

We individually in a whole made it our commitment.

To do as well.

He takes away the 1st in order to establish the 2nd.

So we're seeing that the.

The God is removing the this discussion about offerings and burnt offerings and sacrifices.

Because he's going to come with a different plan.

By this will we have been sanctified through the offering of the body of Jesus Christ once?

We're all.

So he's saying, but under the old covenant.

The best it could do is remind us of sin.

Under Jesus is sacrifice, which was done once for all, not repeatedly.

It made us sanctified.

We became holy.

We were no longer reminders of sin, but we were told we are holy.

That is an awesome concept and we just know that that's like, no, we are holy everybody.

There are denominations that talk about Saints.

We be it.

Not because I'm special, not because I'm able to do his well, I'm I'm more like Paul then Paul when he says I don't do the things that I.

Want to do and I do the things that I don't want.

To do I'm in that category.

And yet because of the offering of Jesus.

I am sanctified.

I am holy.

He makes me holy.

And notice is said through the offering of the body of Jesus.

There are those who during this time we're saying, oh, Jesus came as a spirit.

He was just a spirit because flesh and blood is kind of evil.

So Jesus couldn't have been flesh and blood.

He had to be a spirit, so really his offer assist sacrifices one that 'cause it wasn't.

A real body.

The writer of Hebrews makes it plain.

Jesus came not only as a human, but had flesh and blood, he came.

In bodily form.

Verse 11.

Every priest.

Stands daily, ministering and offering time after time, the same sacrifices which can never take away sins.

Again, he's he.

He goes in case.

You missed the point.

The ministers kept booing their job daily.

They kept standing, which means their work wasn't done.

They kept having go over and over and over and even though they were busy and even though they were following the law, guess what?

They still could never take away sin.

No matter how functional they were, no matter how busy they were, no matter how dedicated they were to their job, it could not take away soon.

This is one of those good, but usually it's I love you, but this is here's the bad stuff, but he haven't offered one sacrifice or fence ends for all time sat down at the right hand of God.

So we are told Jesus doesn't have to stand.

Daily ministering because his sacrifice was once and for all.

All the scenes from Adam until the last person who breathes their last, whenever that is.

His offering covers it all.

And since his offering was complete, and since he no longer needed to Daily Minister his offering, he was able to sit down at the right hand of God the Father.

Showing that he deserved that place.

Of power and honor.

In position.

But he sat down.

But he's not going to remain there forever.

Waiting from that time onward until his enemies be made a footstool.

Or his feet.

God is doing a work presently.

Sometimes we think the world is going to hell in a handbasket, and

It is.

And sometimes we think.

Evil is winning.

God will have checkmated them because he's just doing things until he makes all of those.

The footstool, or Jesus feet?

Or by one offering.

He has perfected for all time those who are sanctified.

We have this.

Problem and as I read in in in that.

We keep letting Satan.

In our heads.

And we let him take away the joy and the power, and the effect of Jesus as offering we are sanctified.

Yeah, we get a little dirty, but it was one offering for all times we are sanctified.

We are holy so when Satan says you're not worthy, you say yes, that's right, but Jesus paid it.

She's worthy, he offered for me.

I am sanctified not because of me, I am sanctified because of him.

And the Holy Spirit also testifies to us, or after, saying, this is the covenant that I will make with them after those days, says the Lord.

I will put my laws upon their hearts on their minds.

I will wipe them.

And then he says, and their sins, and their lawless deeds.

I will remember no more.

As I say, every time I read this and every time I talk about this.

God wrote his original laws on.

Tablets of stone.

But it now writes it on something even harder.

The human heart.

But having once written him on the human heart.

He tenderizes it and makes his desires, but to do his will and as a result.

His law is written on us.

And he no longer considers our sin.

I will remember them no.

As I shared a couple weeks ago, so often we will ask God for forgiveness for the same thing over and over and over.

Then once we have made a genuine confession, the deal is.

I remember no more.

Because the blood of Christ has covered your sin.

Where there is forgiveness of sins.

There is no longer any offering.

Or see.

See Jesus.

Because he did the will of the father.

And as a part of the will of the father.

Was obedient even to the point of death.

So that he.

Offered himself as a substitute for us.

And having done that, he then presented his blood on the genuine mercy seat of the father, and sat down and said, I'm finished with my ministry until it's time for me to stand and come back after my enemies are made of footstool.

When we.

I'll use the nice term when we mess up and I don't mean when we mess up when we sent.

We've been forgiven.

You do not need to plead with God.

You don't need to say, well God, I will do this.

If you forgive me, as Jesus is already paying, you know.

Earlier in this letter, the writer said.

That if you.

Consider no account.

The offering of Jesus and sacrifice.

And all that there's left is the terrible expectation of judgment.

By a wrathful God.

Not me.

The next terrible thing.

Is then rejecting Jesus sacrifice?

Is to say Jesus sacrifice wasn't enough.

It's Jesus, bust something.

It's Jesus plus I do this.

It's Jesus.

Plus I get baptized, it's Jesus.

Plus I become a Sunday school teacher.

It's Jesus.

Plus I've become a priest.

It's Jesus because and if I take and I.

Beat my body to try to drive out the sinfulness.

If it if you add anything to Jesus offering.

To me you hold in contempt the offering that Jesus gave.

And in this offering.

When we when you go out to a restaurant.

Except for if you take a pastor with you 'cause they usually.

Can never find a wallet.

But if you take somebody, a friend or or some, whatever to a restaurant, usually everybody will offer to pay.

There's been a couple times 'cause we've known this, So what we have done is either told the the waiter ahead of time we're going to pay.

Because we know the people we're worth are.

Going to try to pay.

Well, there's a little bit of time when we wanted to take some of the ladies out, so I prepaid.

I gave them my credit card and whatever.

At the restaurant.

It is foolish.

After Jesus has forgiven us.

And offered himself to trust.

Well, let me pick up the check.

Sorry don't.

It may be a nice sentiment.

He already paid it.

So what we should be doing instead of trying to pay?

Let's be grateful.

Or how great and love.

The father has for us.

That he would send Jesus to die.

To pay it all.

Their sins might be completely forgiven once all.

And not only has he paid it all.

When we do mess up, he's sitting.

Next to God the father, saying I paid it.

I paid it.

One sacrifice.

Valuable for all time.

Because Jesus.

With infinite value.

Gave his life.

Or a sinful world.

That has only finite value.

And if you want to know how much God loves you.

Every single human being.

That has ever lived from Noah, from Adam until the last person who's born.

Were to come to Jesus.

As their savior and their Lord.

All of those lives, all added together, were not equal.

The value of Jesus.

The contract he gives us.

If everybody accepted him wouldn't be.

Worth it for him.

But God is not.

He just doesn't love.

He is love.

And to say.

Sure, Jesus paid it, but I need to do something else.

It's a slap God in the face and say you can't do it.

Jesus paid it all.

All to him I owe.

Center left us Crimson stain.

He washed.

That's no.
