Step past the tabernacle curtain with us as Hebrews chapter 9 guides a tour from the bronze altar to the mercy seat—and then beyond the veil. We trace the daily grind of earthly priests, the solemn entry of the high priest once a year, and the stunning claim that Jesus entered the true Holy of Holies with his own blood, once for all. If rituals could never clean the conscience, what finally can?We unpack the tabernacle's symbolism, where God's glory hovered over the Ark and blood covered the law that condemned us. The picture was powerful, but it was provisional. The moment the veil tore, the message changed: access is open. No more annual returns to keep judgment at bay. Jesus' sacrifice doesn't roll guilt forward; it removes it. We discuss sins in ignorance, the danger of willful sin, and why fear can be a faithful warning that drives us to grace rather than back to dead works.From there, we dig into “eternal redemption.” Redemption is debt-settling language: the guilty are bought back by a price they could never pay. Hebrews stacks terms—eternal salvation, eternal inheritance—to show that the work is complete and permanent. That anchors assurance without cheapening obedience. We lift our heads, not to boast in ourselves, but to draw near with confidence and serve the living God. We also connect the dots across Scripture: no one was ever saved by the blood of bulls and goats. Faith has always looked to Jesus Christ [The Messiah], the better priest, the true tabernacle, the once-for-all offering.If you've been carrying a heavy conscience or circling the same spiritual routines, this conversation invites you to rest where the Bible points—at the mercy seat fulfilled in Jesus.

Continue in Hebrews chapter 9 with us and watch the old system of sacrifices meet its match. We start with the red heifer—ashes, water, and the relentless push for ritual purity—and move to the heart of the chapter: only Jesus' blood reaches the conscience. The priests never stopped working; blood pooled, smoke rose, and still guilt lingered. That grisly scene teaches us that sin is not a paper cut but a wound that demands life. Then everything changes. Jesus, unblemished and willing, enters not a man-made sanctuary but heaven itself as our Mediator, offering one sacrifice that finally ends the cycle.We dig into covenant logic and why blood seals promises. Moses sprinkled the book and the people; Jesus seals the new covenant with His own life. Without shedding of blood there is no forgiveness, not because God loves gore but because justice and mercy meet at the cross. The earthly tabernacle was a copy that needed constant cleansing. The heavenly reality required a better sacrifice—once for all, never to be repeated. That's why Hebrews says He appears before God for us. The result is profound and practical: a cleansed conscience, freedom from dead works, and a life reoriented to serve the living God.There's also a quiet drumbeat of hope running through these verses. We're living at the consummation of the ages, looking toward a world to come. People die once and then face judgment, and Jesus will appear a second time for those who eagerly wait for Him. Salvation has a past, present, and future; assurance now blossoms into sight then. If you've ever wondered whether grace can carry the full weight of your guilt or if one sacrifice could truly be enough, this conversation offers clarity, courage, and hope.If this resonates, follow the show, share it with a friend, and leave a quick review.

* You can get the sermon note sheet at: https://family-bible-church.org/2025Messages/25Dec07.pdf * In the beginning of this series, I stated that I believed that the Theme of the Book was: "The Presentation of 'A New and Living Way' through the Perfect Propitiation of Jesus who eternally fulfilled the requirements of the Yom Kippur Sacrifices!" * Last week, we began to consider the apex of the book, the declaration of this theme. The author of the book has been building to this point using various Jewish themes to reveal the deity of the Messiah, His role at bringing the ultimate "rest" which was not given through Moses or Joshua. It was the Messiah's role to come and establish the New Covenant declared by Jeremiah by offering Himself as the Ultimate Propitiatory Sacrifice for sins. * To fully understand what the consummation of eternal redemption would look like to the Jewish people, we need to understand the complexity of the sacrificial system and the progressive nature of redemptive covenants. This Redemptive Plan was something that God initiated before He formed the foundations of the world! * Today, Lord willing, we will consider the Progression of the Redemptive Plan (as revealed through the Sacrificial System, the Covenants, and Scripture) and the Presentation of the Ultimate Sacrifice. * This message was presented by Bob Corbin on December 7, 2025 at Family Bible Church in Martinez, Georgia.

Christ, the High Priest of a Superior Covenant
In the message, “IT IS NECESSARY,” Pastor Rich Whitter unpacks Hebrews 9:12–28, a passage that drives home the unshakeable truth that Christ's sacrifice wasn't optional—it was essential. Pastor Rich highlights how the old covenant required repeated offerings, but Jesus entered the heavenly sanctuary once for all, securing eternal redemption through His own blood. The writer of Hebrews reminds us that without the shedding of blood, there is no forgiveness, and Jesus fulfilled this requirement perfectly. His death was necessary, His resurrection victorious, and His return certain.This message calls us to live with gratitude, confidence, and expectation—knowing that our salvation rests on the finished work of Christ alone.We'd love to have you join us in person this Sunday at 9AM, 10:30AM, or 12PM. Come experience worship, community, and a place to grow.

In the message, “THE PRECIOUS BLOOD OF JESUS,” Pastor Rich Whitter teaches from Hebrews 9:6–12, highlighting the contrast between the old sacrificial system and the perfect, once-for-all sacrifice of Christ. Pastor Rich explains how the high priest could enter the Holy of Holies only once a year with the blood of animals but Jesus entered once for all, securing eternal redemption through His own precious blood. This passage reminds us that forgiveness, freedom, and access to God were purchased not by human effort, but by the spotless sacrifice of Christ Himself.We'd love to have you join us in person this Sunday at 9AM, 10:30AM, or 12PM come worship with us and grow deeper in your faith.

Join us as Mike Bongo continues our sermon series on the book of Hebrews with a sermon entitled "Jesus is Worthy and Well Worth the Wait" from Hebrews 9:23-28.
We've been looking at all sorts of ways that those things that existed in the Old Testament, or Old covenant, only pointed to what God wanted to exist in a better way in and through Jesus. This week we see how Jesus makes a far better sacrifice that deals with all of sin, and inaugurates a new kingdom.

In the old covenant, the average Israelite was not allowed to enter into the holy place, and only the high priest was allowed to enter into the most holy place. This earthly tabernacle was a shadow and predecessor of the heavenly pattern, wherein sinful men like us cannot enter into God's holy presence. Thankfully, we have a high priest in Jesus, for he is able, not only to enter into His Father's presence, but to cleanse our consciences. He cleanses us, not with the blood of bulls or goats, but with his very own blood. In so doing, Christ is the perfect lamb of God who takes away the sins of the world. Unlike the old covenant which required continual sacrifices by imperfect men, Christ has entered into this heavenly tabernacle, or one “not made with hands” and has made sacrifice once and for all. :::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
In the message, “THE HOLY PACE,” Pastor Rich Whitter explores Hebrews 9:1–5, uncovering the rich symbolism of the tabernacle and its furnishings as a reflection of God's presence and holiness. Pastor Rich explains how each element—from the lampstand to the ark of the covenant—points to Christ as our true access to God. The message challenges believers to slow down, walk at God's pace, and live with reverence in His presence rather than rushing through faith on their own terms.We'd love to have you join us in person this Sunday at 9AM, 10:30AM, or 12PM — come encounter Jesus with us and grow deeper in your walk with Him.

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 9Under the old covenant, worship took place in a sacred tent divided into two sections: a holy place and a most holy place. Only the high priest could enter the inner room, and that was only once a year, bringing animal blood for the sins of the people and himself. These rituals symbolized that full access to God was not yet open. But Christ changed everything. He entered a greater, heavenly sanctuary and offered His own blood, not the blood of animals. His sacrifice brings eternal redemption and cleanses the believer's conscience. A covenant requires death, and His death established a new and better covenant. After ascending into the holy place of heaven, He will come again, having already dealt with sin, bringing final salvation to those eagerly waiting for Him. We see the beauty and seriousness of God's design through the Old Covenant. It taught us the weight of sin and the need for sacrifice. But now, through Jesus, we have something even greater. He entered a more perfect place, not made by human hands, and offered His own blood to secure eternal redemption. His sacrifice not only cleanses the outside; it reaches our hearts and clears our conscience. We are invited to serve God with full assurance, not because of our efforts but because of His mercy. Let us honor both the foundation that was laid and the fulfillment we now have. Let us live with gratitude, cleansed by Jesus' blood and anticipating the triumphant return of Jesus. Benevolent Father, thank You for sending Jesus as our perfect sacrifice and eternal high priest. He did not offer the blood of animals but gave His own life to secure our redemption. Through Him, we now have access to Your presence and the promise of eternal life. Cleanse our hearts and renew our minds so that we may serve You with sincerity and devotion. Help us to live in gratitude for the mercy we have received. May we never take lightly the cost of our salvation. Please accept our faith as we wait with hope for the return of our Savior. Thought Questions: How is Christ's high priesthood and sacrifice greater than the regulations of divine worship and the earthly sanctuary in the Old Law? What did the blood of Jesus Christ accomplish? How should it represent not only forgiveness but also a new and binding covenant? What is guaranteed to happen after your death? What do you believe about Jesus that gives you great hope in the coming judgment?
Learning to understand the Bible is a lot like learning how to swim: you never know how well you're doing until you jump into the deep end. Anybody can appreciate John 3:16, but when you wade into the deeper waters of Scripture, it's easy to feel like you're drowning. So it is with the middle section of Hebrews (chapters 5-10), which holds some of the most complex concepts in the Bible. Join us Sundays in October at The Story as we take a deep dive in search of profound truths about Jesus, the Gospel, and the shortfalls of human religion.
