Mike McCoy 12-31-2025 In this New Year's Eve message, Brother Mike takes a familiar text with a sobering reality concerning the living word of God. Crossville First Free Will Baptist Church www.crossvillechurch.com

Pastor Wilson Green encourages us that because Jesus is the Son of God and our great High Priest, we can draw near to God in prayer with confidence, freedom, and honesty. We can pray effectively because Jesus went before us, honestly because He understands and sympathizes with our weakness and temptation, and boldly because He will give mercy and grace when we need it.

"For the word of God is living and active, sharper than any two‑edged sword, piercing to the division of soul and of spirit, of joints and of marrow, and discerning the thoughts and intentions of the heart." Hebrews 4:12

Hebrews 4:14-16,5:1-10 by Pastor Will Cass

David Keddie continues our FNF reflections on the season of Advent, the coming of Christ, and on these verses from Hebrews 4: "Since then we have a great high priest who has passed through the heavens, Jesus, the Son of God, let us hold fast our confession. For we do not have a high priest who is unable to sympathize with our weaknesses, but one who in every respect has been tempted as we are, yet without sin. Let us then with confidence draw near to the throne of grace, that we may receive mercy and find grace to help in time of need." (v. 14-16)

Hebrews 4 :14-15

“Our Great High Priest” • Hebrews 4:14-5:10 – Elder Bryce Lowrance.    The way to God is guarded from us because of our sin. Therefore, we need a high priest to make intercession for us with a Holy God. Jesus Christ is our Great High Priest. He perfectly fills the role of priest in that He offered Himself once for our sins and is compassionately giving us aide in times of need.  This message was preached on Sunday, June 9, 2024.

Chris Sallade reflects on the season of Advent, the coming of Christ, and on these verses from Hebrews 4: "Since then we have a great high priest who has passed through the heavens, Jesus, the Son of God, let us hold fast our confession. For we do not have a high priest who is unable to sympathize with our weaknesses, but one who in every respect has been tempted as we are, yet without sin. Let us then with confidence draw near to the throne of grace, that we may receive mercy and find grace to help in time of need." (v. 14-16)

In Hebrews 4:1–13, Pastor Nick Whistance invites us to “Come Sit in the Finished Work” by exploring what God truly means when He calls His people to rest. In a culture where “rest” carries many meanings, this passage clarifies that God's rest is not mere relaxation but a faith-filled confidence in Christ's completed work. Join us as we uncover how entering His rest transforms our striving into trust and our weariness into worship.

Program for 12/03/2025 SAS Chapel: Hebrews 4:14-5:14

A closed throne room is the world we expect; Hebrews reveals a throne of grace that welcomes us with confidence. We open the door on what bold access really means, why the torn veil changes prayer from a cautious ritual into an honest conversation, and how Jesus' ongoing advocacy turns our weakest moments into encounters with mercy.We start by reframing the roles of priest and prophet, clearing up a common modern confusion: a priest represents the people to God. From there, we trace the high priest's humanity and weakness under the old covenant and contrast it with Jesus' sinless solidarity. He knows our condition from within, yet without guilt, which is why he deals gently and intercedes powerfully. We also unpack why no one takes the honor of priesthood for themselves and how Christ, like Aaron in calling but unlike him in order, was appointed by the Father.The takeaway is deeply practical: when the need is urgent and the heart is heavy, the way is open. No gatekeepers, no queue, no fragile mood to navigate. You approach a sovereign who loves to give grace and mercy in real time. That changes how we pray, how we endure suffering, and how we resist the pull toward lesser mediators. If Jesus is both king and priest forever, then the verdict over your approach is settled: come boldly.If this helped you see prayer and access in a new light, subscribe, share the episode with a friend, and leave a review to help others find it.

“His Rest” • Hebrews 4 – Elder Bryce Lowrance.  The children of Israel were not allowed to enter into Canaan's Land because of their unbelief that God had delivered them, was sustaining them, and would continue to bless them. We are also in danger of missing out on the rest of God when we seek to comfort ourselves with things of the world rather than trusting our Redeemer, Who saved us for all eternity, to take care of our daily needs and help us with our life's burdens. Part 2 begins in verse 11 where the Apostle explains to us how we "labor into rest." This message was preached on Sunday, June 2, 2024.

Ever feel the tug to retreat to what feels safe and familiar when life gets hard? We sit with a community that knew that pull well—Jewish believers near Jerusalem, pressured to trade the risk of following Jesus for the predictability of rituals and rules. Hebrews chapter 4 offers a bracing alternative: not more striving, but a living Word that cuts through our defenses and a Great High Priest who turns exposure into healing.We start with the scalpel. “The word of God is living and active,” sharper than any two-edged sword. When Scripture lays us bare, it separates what we can't—thoughts from intentions, appearances from motives—so God can remove what harms and restore what's healthy. Then comes the pivot that changes everything: the One who sees everything is the same One who welcomes us. Jesus has “passed through the heavens” as our Great High Priest, not standing in endless effort like the priests of old, but seated because the sacrifice is complete.From there we explore how Jesus's sympathy becomes our courage. Tempted in every way we are, yet without sin, He knows the weight we carry and the cracks where we break. That sympathy is strong enough to help us in real time. We also unpack the role of priest versus prophet and why it matters that Jesus, from the tribe of Judah and not Levi, represents us before the Father according to a higher order Hebrews will soon reveal. The takeaway is practical and personal: hold fast your confession because Jesus is better—better than angels, Moses, and any system that promises peace through performance.The invitation lands with urgency and comfort: draw near with confidence to the throne of grace to receive mercy and find grace to help in time of need. If striving to please yourself or some religious organization has left you tired, come close to Jesus. If hidden motives keep sabotaging your peace, let the Word do its careful work. And if you're tempted to go back to what once felt safe, look again at the One who knows you, stands for you, and never stops interceding.

Pastor Daniel H. Park | 11/30/25

Feeling crushed by busyness, pressure, and the never-ending push to be “good enough”? We walk through Hebrews chapter 4 to show how belief opens a real, present rest and why the promise of a lasting Sabbath rest still stands. This isn't spiritual avoidance or self-help spin; it's a rooted claim that Christ finished the work of righteousness, and that changes how we face fear, failure, and the future.Hebrews 4:3 takes us deeper: God's works were finished from the foundation of the world. God is timeless; his completed work unfolds in our time. That truth reframes anxious questions about career, money, family, and culture. We don't have to control outcomes; we learn to obey in small steps and rest in a power that never runs dry. And when the text says “there remains a Sabbath rest,” we look forward to the Millennial Kingdom and the Final State—when our mission is complete and our rest is whole. Until then, we live under Christ's easy yoke, practicing trust over striving and presence over panic.If you've been trying to earn peace, stop and breathe. The invitation repeats like a heartbeat: today. Don't postpone trust to a tomorrow you can't guarantee. Hit play, reflect with us through Hebrews 4, and take the next faithful step toward real rest. If this encourages you, subscribe, share it with a friend who's weary, and leave a review to help others find the show.Support the showThank you for listening!!

As we read from the book of Hebrews today we'll see that Jesus is a better rest than the Sabbath and a better high priest. While the Sabbath regularly pointed God's people to their need for rest and to their dependence on the Lord, the author of Hebrews says that a Sabbath rest remains for God's people, namely Jesus Christ, for all those who are found him are able to rest from works of righteousness while depending on the Lord to provide for them both here and hereafter. Later, we'll see that Jesus is a superior priest, for like Melchizedek his priesthood is not based on ancestral lineage. This idea will be developed further in later passages. :::Christian Standard Bible translation.All music written and produced by John Burgess Ross.Co-produced by the Christian Standard Biblefacebook.com/commuterbibleinstagram.com/commuter_bibletwitter.com/CommuterPodpatreon.com/commuterbibleadmin@commuterbible.org

Hebrews 4:14 - 5:10 by CBC of Savannah

Message from Mike G on November 2, 2025

Reach Out: Please include your email and I will get back to you. Thanks!Good morning! Thank you for taking a few minutes to listen. If you are interested in the Daily Bible Devotional, you can find it at the links below:Amazon - (paperback, hardcover, and Kindle)YouTube Video Introducing the ContentFeel free to reach out with any questions: emersonk78@me.comHebrews 4 Fear can be healthy for Christians if it fosters concern about falling short of God's promised rest. Israel had great assurances of rest but lost them due to a lack of faith, which led to disobedience and punishment from God. Their example remains powerful for believers, as a promised rest continues for the people of God. Disciples must diligently enter that rest by paying consistent attention to God's word. The word is living and active, penetrating the heart and revealing what does not belong. God sees all, even the depths of the heart. Fortunately, Jesus is a constant source of help on the path to rest, serving as a sympathetic high priest, so that the faithful can confidently approach the throne of grace for assistance in times of need.  We must take God's promise of rest seriously, not with a sense of anxiety, but with a deep awareness that we might miss it if we stop trusting Him. Like Israel, we know His voice and power, but we must still choose faith every day. It is easy to drift or harden our hearts when life feels overwhelming. That is why we must stay grounded in His word, allowing it to shape us and reveal what needs to change. Nothing is hidden from God, not even our secret doubts or fears. But we are not alone: Jesus knows our weaknesses. He invites us to come near, to find mercy, to find grace, and to keep walking with Him toward true rest. Worthy Lord, we come with humble hearts, thankful for the promise of heavenly rest that You freely offer to those who trust in You. We confess that at times we get distracted and allow things into our hearts that do not belong. Please cleanse our sins and make us holy and righteous in Your sight. Help us develop the discipline to be in Your word every day, knowing it is sufficient to touch our hearts and minds and direct us in Your ways. Please continue to bless us with the protection of Jesus, and give us grace in difficult times.   Thought Questions: Is it possible for someone saved by God to turn from Him in unbelief and lose heaven? How do you make sure that does not happen to you? How does daily Bible reading help you remain diligent in entering heaven's rest? What can God accomplish in your life with an open bible? What is the benefit of having Jesus as your sympathetic high priest? How does He assist you in confidently drawing near to the throne of grace?
