Hebrews 9

HebrewsSteve Gregg
Steve Gregg discusses Hebrews chapter 9 and its references to Jewish customs and rituals, specifically the annual sacrifice for unintentional sins. The writer of Hebrews implies that a sacrifice must be made to rid oneself of guilt for breaking God's laws, and only through Jesus can one obtain eternal redemption. Gregg explains that Jesus became a real man in order to die for humanity's sins, as the blood of bulls and goats was not adequate. Ultimately, Christ put an end to the sacrificial system and through him, believers can boldly approach the throne of grace.
