Jesus the Prophet, King, and Priest: Anchored in Christ | Hebrews 2:1-4 | Jared Osselaer | April 19, 2026

Send us Fan MailThe whole section from verse 1-14 tells us everything He does is to the praise of His glory.  We see in this section today how to be saved.  You hear, you trust in the Gospel and having believed you are sealed with the Holy Spirit until the day He comes back to get us.  There are 5 great things that come with being Sealed with the Holy Spirit of promise.  The sealing work of the Spirit is mentioned 2 other places in the Scripture, 2Corinthians 1:22 and Ephesians 4:301.    A seal on a legal document means it is a finished contract or transactionYou know what the seal means? We are not in the process of getting saved. When you put your faith in Jesus Christ God gave you the Holy Spirit and said - That is a finished transaction.2.    It means security and protection.. We are secure in Christ - Hebrews 6:19 3.  Authenticity… It' real, we are a genuine child of God - Ro 8:9When God gives us His Holy Spirit He is saying this is an authentic child of the King. The only authentic Christian is the one who possesses the Holy Spirit, who's sealed with a mark of authenticity.  4. Ownership…He owns us - 1Co 6:19-205.  Authority and power - Read the the eighth chapter of Esther. Esther wanted the king to settle a certain issue. So she said, Okay, you make the edict, king, and you sign it with your seal and we'll carry it out. And so they're walking around with this letter from the king. And it's a sign of authority. Esther 3:8-15, We have His authority and power in our lives over sin, suffering, and temptation.  The Authority to preach the Gospel and go in His name since He has sent us Mt. 28:20 In essence, the “deposit” of the Holy Spirit is a little bit of heaven in believers' lives with a guarantee of much more yet to come.Who is The guarantee of our inheritance – The Holy Spirit – This means He will never leave us or forsake us Hebrews 13:5Mark 8:36 "For what will it profit a man if he gains the whole world, and loses his own soul?             John 14:6 Jesus said to him, “I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father except through Me. Have you trusted Him as your Savior? He can Save you if You ask Him based on His death, burial, and resurrection for your sins. Believe in Him for forgiveness of your sins today.               “And you shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free.”  -John 8:32           Our mission is to spread the gospel and to go to the least of these with the life-changing message of Jesus Christ; We reach out to those the World has forgotten.              hisloveministries.podbean.com #HLMSocial hisloveministries.nethttps://www.instagram.com/hisloveministries1/?hl=en His Love Ministries on Itunes Don't go for all the gusto you can get, go for all the God (Jesus Christ) you can get.

Ep. 426 Focused On Jesus The Supremacy of Christ

Ep. 425 Run With Endurance The Supremacy of Christ

Like many people who struggle with pornography, Russell was exposed to it at a young age. The desire to use it was overpowering, and it poisoned his heart. “My life [became] completely saturated by it,” he writes, “so much so that it was like a cancer that was deeply rooted into my very fiber.” By God’s grace, he was finally set free of porn’s power—along with other addictions—when he received salvation in Jesus and was transformed from the inside out. “I credit it all to Jesus Christ, . . . [He’s] the one who delivered me,” Russell says. Jeremiah delivered a message from God to Israel that one day He would “put [His] law in their minds and write it on their hearts” (31:33). Under this new covenant, fulfilled in Christ (Hebrews 8:6-13), all people could be transformed by God’s grace through faith. And now, “his Spirit . . . lives in [us]” (Romans 8:11), and God’s moral law has been written on our hearts. For Russell, and for all who believe, the Holy Spirit’s power provides what’s needed to turn from harmful behavior that displeases God and seeks to destroy us. Transformation isn’t always instantaneous or easy. But let’s remember, when we’re dealing with difficult—even addictive—sin, that God can transform our hearts (Jeremiah 31:33). He says, you “will know me” (v. 34 nlt), and we can also know His heart-changing power.

Sinking into the church pew, I close my eyes, allowing myself to relax. Christmas hymns filter around parishioners as more enter the warm room. Fatigue washes over me as I wait for the Christmas service to start. The previous month was full of Christmas-time activities, lights, parties, and pageants. The seasonal hustle and bustle left me with little time to rest, my heart anxious over plans and the Christmas holiday. As the lights dim, the focus switches to the manger scene. Jesus Christ, born in a manger, died on the cross for our sins. Emmanuel—God with us. Hope was born in human form. "For unto us a child is born, unto us a son is given, and the government will be upon His shoulders. And He will be called Wonderful Counselor, Mighty God, Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace" (Isaiah 9:6). Over the centuries, Christians have turned toward Jesus with hope and assurance of heaven. "The name Immanuel encapsulates the heart of the Christian message: that God, in His infinite love and mercy, chose to dwell among His people through Jesus Christ. This profound truth continues to inspire and sustain believers, affirming the reality of God's presence in their lives" (BibleHub.com).  The hope of Emmanuel takes us beyond Christmas. For believers, that hope leads to eternity and resting forever with God in Heaven. A forever reprieve from the weariness felt here on earth. However, as you celebrate the birth of the Lord Jesus Christ this Advent, you can also celebrate his saving grace and rest in him. You can look forward to eternal rest while enjoying rest here on earth, right here and now. God's word tells us to rest. God provided a pattern to follow as he rested on the seventh day after six days of work. Genesis 2:2-3 says, "And on the seventh day God finished his work that he had done, and he rested on the seventh day from all his work that he had done. So God blessed the seventh day and made it holy, because on it God rested from all his work that he had done in creation." In the same way, he reminds us to do the same. Advent time is a great time to start resting and taking time to enjoy what God's given. He tells us that he provides rest for our weary hearts. Exodus 33:14 says, And the LORD answered (Moses), 'My Presence will go with you, and I will give you rest." Matthew 11:28-30 continues this same theme of spiritual rest. It says, "Come to me, all who labor and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest. Take my yoke upon you, and learn from me, for I am gentle and lowly in heart, and you will find rest for your souls. For my yoke is easy, and my burden is light." Bible Hub study "Rest here is not merely physical but spiritual, offering peace and relief from the guilt and power of sin. This promise connects to the Sabbath rest in Genesis 2:2-3, symbolizing completion and satisfaction in God. Jesus fulfills the prophetic rest promised in the Old Testament, such as in Jeremiah 6:16, where the ancient paths lead to rest for the soul. This rest is a type of the eternal rest believers will experience in Christ (Hebrews 4:9-10)." The choir files into the church as the congregation rises. My anxiety lessens as I listen to the voices around me rising with the choir, still seated. "O Come, O Come, Emmanuel. Rejoice." I rise to join those around me, my voice lifting up the truth of the season. Come, Lord, come and give me rest. Help me rejoice in your birth this Christmas.  Prayer Dear Lord, thank you for your gift of rest. Please help me accept that gift and enjoy this Christmas season. Remind me of your open invitation when I'm feeling weary. Amen. Other Ways to Prepare this Christmas Season As we let these truths about Christmas penetrate our hearts, we can sit and dwell on the truth. We can sit and dwell on the fact that God is with us and that he wants to give us rest. One practical way that you can. Just sit and dwell on what God has for you this Christmas and release some of the anxiety, the overwhelm, and the panic over this Christmas season is to go through the workshop, Pen Your Way to Peace. Pen Your Way to Peace is a workshop that my friend Carrie and I did two years ago, where it's 75 minutes of working through and praying through things that steal your joy, things that cause negative emotions, and maybe even bring up drama. We want to help you work through these things. We are offering this workshop in a way that you can sit, you can work through the journal questions that Carrie, as a spiritual director, has provided for the workshop. And then one of the other things that we know causes chaos, causes overwhelm, and frankly doesn't make our hearts feel at rest is not planning. So with me, you will sit and work through plans, work through what you have, your boundaries, what are things you're saying yes to this holiday season, and what you're saying no to this holiday season. You join Pen Your Way to Peace so you can prepare your mind, your heart, and your calendar for the season of Christ's birth.  Click here to work at your own pace.

Nehemiah 5 records the actions of Nehemiah the prophet to remove the suffering of the poor whose lands and vineyards had been mortgaged and their children sold into slavery. Nehemiah holds a great assembly and challenges the rulers to forsake their iniquitous practices. And so, the congregation agrees to restore to their families the sons and daughters who had been enslaved. Also, fields and vineyards are returned to their original owners. Governor Nehemiah received no taxes from the people despite his entitlement to do so. Verses 14-19 outline the Governor's - Nehemiah's - generous provision from his table every day for 12 years out of his own pocket. Nehemiah calls upon God to witness his love and generosity to Yahweh's people. Chapter 6 speaks of the conspiracy against Nehemiah from the enemies surrounding Israel. These foes seek a meeting with the Governor in the open plain where they would attempt to assassinate him. Nehemiah refuses and tells them that he would not stop doing God's work. Four times they try this tactic. Next the adversaries come with an open letter spreading lies about Nehemiah. This also fails. The enemies claim Nehemiah wants to make himself king. The faithful Governor takes the letter and spreads it out before God and prays for God's help and support. The next tactic of Nehemiah's foes is to threaten assassination. This too fails to intimidate God's faithful servant and the work of building the walls continues. Nehemiah asks God to remember and deal with the enemies. And so, the wall is completed in 52 days, because the hand of the Almighty is with his people. One of the great lessons of these chapters is to remain focused on God's work and the building up of His family and to avoid any distractions that might arise.The prophet Joel speaks his message just before the four waves of Babylonian invasions on Judah and the deporting to Babylon of exiles from the Land on each of these incursions. The first of these happens under the king of Babylon (Nebuchadnezzar) in 606 BC. The final overthrow of the southern kingdom of Judah; with its capital Jerusalem, was in 587 BC. The invasion is described by the four stages of the locust - each stage more voracious in appetite than the previous stage. Verse 6 tells us that the devastation of God's land is due to one nation - Babylon. Notice the symbols of Israel are portrayed in the vine and the fig tree. These are consumed by Nebuchadnezzar. The virgin of Israel languishes due to her chastisement. Verses 13-20 tell of a call to repentance for the nation of Judah, will feel the wrath of the LORD in "the day of Yahweh" (a theme often repeated in this prophecy).Our final reading in 1 Thessalonians 5 reminds us that the Scriptures provide graphic detail of the times (Greek 'chronos' which God has explicitly revealed through His Scriptures and particularly in His prophetic word) and that He has adjusted i.e. patterned the world's eras around His Son, the Christ (Hebrews 11verses1). Time in this chapter is made up of longer periods called "times" and shorter periods known as "seasons". The shorter seasons characterised by specific signs compel us to believe that our Lord's coming is imminent (Luke 21verses24-36). These signs urge us to watchfulness and to lives that are consistent with us being the children of the DAY. That is the day soon to dawn when the sun of righteousness will arise with healing (Malachi 4verses1). We are exhorted us to lives consistent with the character required of the children of our Father in verses 4-11. The chapter concludes with patterns of behaviour befitting the children of the kingdom (cp 2 Peter 3verses10-18).Thanks for joining us - we pray you found these comments helpful in your appreciation of God's words, join again tomorrow

Dr Stephen Yuille preaches on "The Supremacy of Christ" from Hebrews 1.

Do Orthodox Christians “worship icons”? Is Orthodoxy “works-based”? If you've heard those claims and weren't sure how to respond, this episode is your Bible-and-history reality check—clear, charitable, and straight to the point.What Protestants Often Miss About OrthodoxyA surprising witness: Martin Luther once described Greek Orthodox believers as “the most Christian people and the best followers of the gospel on earth.” That startling line sets the stage for a serious, Scripture-anchored look at salvation, saints, and sacred images.1) Salvation: Moment or Journey?Orthodoxy doesn't deny conversion moments—it simply insists the New Testament speaks of salvation in past, present, and future (you have been saved, are being saved, will be saved). Think medicine, not just legal acquittal: sin is a sickness Christ heals, and the Church is the hospital where grace transforms us into His likeness.2) Faith & Works: James's Actual ArgumentJames 2 doesn't pit faith against grace—it shows that living faith is energetic. “Faith without works is dead” is like a body without a soul: the works don't earn salvation; they animate faith, revealing the life of Christ within. This is why the Fathers speak of theosis (2 Peter 1:4): by grace, believers partake of the divine nature, cooperating with God's energies as He reshapes us.3) Saints & Icons: Honor vs. WorshipOrthodoxy draws a bright line between veneration (honor) and worship (adoration due to God alone).Bowing isn't necessarily worship. Scripture shows people bowing in honor without idolatry.Images aren't automatically idols. From the cherubim over the Ark to symbolic imagery throughout Scripture, the Bible distinguishes forbidden idols from holy reminders that direct hearts to God.Intercession is biblical. If the “prayer of a righteous person is powerful and effective,” it remains so for those alive in Christ (Hebrews 12:1). We ask the saints to pray with us, not instead of Christ.4) Earliest Christian PracticeArchaeology and early Christian witness show that sacred images and prayers for the departed were part of the Church's life from the beginning—not late medieval inventions. The point isn't art for art's sake; it's Christ-centered remembrance that teaches the faith to hearts, minds, and even our senses.Why this mattersIf you love Jesus, Scripture, and the unity He prayed for, you'll want to understand how the apostolic Church held these truths together: grace-filled transformation, living faith that acts, and worship that engages the whole person. Whether you're Protestant, Orthodox, or just curious, this conversation offers a road map through common objections toward a richer, more historic Christianity.Join us as we walk through the texts, the Fathers, and the first centuries of the Church—and see how today's Orthodox faith connects to the faith once delivered to the saints.Please leave a comment with your thoughts!

Drift doesn't happen overnight—it starts small, almost unnoticeable, and before we know it, we can find ourselves far from God. The good news is that He has given us the anchor we need to stay steady and strong in Him. Key Points from this message: Drift Begins with Neglect — We don't just wake up and decide to abandon God. Neglect is a seed, and drift is the fruit that grows from it (Hebrews 2:3). Drift is Deceptive and Subtle — Sin rarely comes with flashing lights. Satan works to distort our vision of God, like a blindfold blocking light (Proverbs 14:12; 2 Corinthians 4:3-4). Sin will always take you further than you want to go, keep you longer than you want to stay, and cost you more than you want to pay. Drift Demands Constant Course Correction — Every day we need to examine our hearts and adjust. Course correction isn't shameful—it's necessary (Lamentations 3:40). Staying Anchored Keeps Us from Drifting — We must develop spiritual habits that keep us grounded and anchored in Christ (Hebrews 10:19). Drift may be subtle, but it's not unstoppable. When we stay anchored in Jesus, we can stand firm no matter what comes our way.

THEREFORE.WE HAVE CONFIDENCE… WE HAVE CHRIST. Let us draw near to Christ ... with FAITH.     Let us confess Christ ... in HOPE. Let us consider one another ... in LOVE.

The Beauty Of Christ (Hebrews 1:1-3)

Title: Jesus Is the True VineMain Text: John 15:1-11Key Points:The Vine, the Vinedresser, and the BranchesJesus is the true vine, the Father is the gardener, and we are the branches.True believers bear fruit. Fruit doesn't lead to salvation—it proves salvation.There are two types of branches: those that bear fruit and are pruned, and those that bear no fruit and are cut off.Dead Branches: Divine JudgmentBranches that don't remain in Christ are thrown away, wither, and are burned (John 15:6).Dead branches drain life, invite disease, and block light and growth—for themselves and others.Judgment is not passive—it's just, and it reveals true spiritual condition.Fruitful Branches: Divine DisciplineGod prunes fruitful branches so they bear even more fruit.Pruning is painful, but it's an act of love that draws us deeper into dependence on Christ (Hebrews 12:6, 2 Corinthians 1:8-9).Spiritual growth often comes through trials.Abide in the VineRemain. Abide. Stay close. Jesus says, “Apart from me you can do nothing.”Remaining doesn't make you a disciple—it proves that you are one.If you were hurt in community, healing happens in community.Fruit = LoveJesus' command is clear: “Love one another as I have loved you.”His joy becomes our joy when we obey His commands and live a life marked by sacrifice and love.Final Question:Are you bearing fruit? What season are you in? The goal isn't to force fruit—it's to stay close to the vine.

June’s eyes were fixed on the gray car beside her. She had to change lanes to exit the highway, but each time she tried to overtake it, the other driver seemed to speed up too. Finally, she managed to cut in front. Smug in her moment of triumph, June looked in the rearview mirror and smirked. At the same time, she noticed her destination exit passing her by. With a rueful smile, she recounted: “I was so fixated on overtaking that I missed my exit.” Such a slip can also happen in our desire to walk in God’s ways. When the religious leaders persecuted Jesus for not keeping the Jewish law (John 5:16), He warned that they’d become so fixated on studying and enforcing the law that they were missing the person the law pointed to: “These are the very Scriptures that testify about me, yet you refuse to come to me to have life” (vv. 39-40). In trying to be right before God, the religious leaders focused on following the Jewish law and making sure everyone else did too. Likewise, in our zeal for God, we may keep up with good things—church attendance, Bible study, charity work—and even get others to join us. But we can become so focused on them that we miss the person we’re doing them for—Jesus. In all we do, let’s ask God to help us fix our eyes on Christ (Hebrews 12:2). He alone is “the way and the truth and the life” (John 14:6).
