The Gracereach Podcast with Brad Robertson

https://www.gracereach.org/ - In AD 65, many of the Jewish people were trying to draw close to God by adhering to the law of Moses. However, the writer of Hebrews explains that the law doesn't pull a person close to God but pushes people away from God through feelings of guilt.

Yet Jesus with one sacrif...

In AD 65, the people of Israel were seeking to have their need for perfection, closeness with God, salvation, and forgiveness met through the priests of the old testament of the law of Moses.

The writer of Hebrews seeks to convince the Jewish people depending upon the law to have their spiritual ne...

In this teaching, Brad explains what a Jewish person reading Hebrews in AD 65 understood by the word saved. He also explains how the writer assured the Jewish readers that they could be saved fully and forever by coming to God through faith in Jesus rather than through the law of Moses.

The old testament priest under the law of Moses could not establish the new testament of grace...it would take another priest...a priest not under the law...a sinless priest...a heavenly priest...an eternal priest. God promised in Psalm 110:4 this priest would come in the order of Melchizedek. Jesus is this priest. In this teaching, you will learn why the writer of Hebrews emphasizes Jesus as comi...
