North Platte Berean Church
Once For All Time
Christianity has a long history of being misunderstood, even by Christians! It's all too easy to make it about Jesus PLUS something (good works, moral living, religious activities, emotional experience…). But the book of Hebrews claims that when we add anything to Jesus, we're actually subtracting. It holds up Jesus Christ – fully God, fully human – as the promised Deliverer. He is the One who, alone, saves us from our sinfulness and restores our relationships with God, others, and creation. Its message, the message of Christianity, is really quite simple: Jesus Christ is enough!

Next Week's Sermon
The author of Hebrews has laid out some beautiful theology in this letter. Christ's covenant is a better covenant enacted on better promises that brings a better hope. It transforms us from the inside out, is available to anyone who would come, allows an intimacy with God never dreamed of before, and secures total forgiveness and purification.
These truths aren't designed just to be stuck in our heads, however, but they should inform and direct how we live our lives practically. And that's where the author will take us next week - to discuss practical living implications of these amazing truths!
