QUOTES FOR REFLECTION“I believe that the whole universe, heaven and earth, air and seas, and the divine constitution and history of the holy Scriptures, be full of images of divine things, as full as a language is of words; and that the multitude of those things that I have mentioned are but a very small part of what is really intended to be signified and typified by these things: but that there is room for persons to be learning more and more of this language and seeing more of that which is declared in it to the end of the world without discovering all.”~Jonathan Edwards, Typological Writings “For each man spoke well in proportion to the share he had of the seed of the Word, seeing what was related to it….Whatever things were rightly said among all peoples are the property of us Christians….For all the writers were able to see realities darkly through the sowing of the implanted word that was in them.”~Justin Martyr, Second Apology “I see things behind things behind things.”~Bon Iver, SABLE, fABLE SERMON PASSAGEHebrews 8:1-13 (ESV) 1 Now the point in what we are saying is this: we have such a high priest, one who is seated at the right hand of the throne of the Majesty in heaven, 2 a minister in the holy places, in the true tent that the Lord set up, not man. 3 For every high priest is appointed to offer gifts and sacrifices; thus it is necessary for this priest also to have something to offer. 4 Now if he were on earth, he would not be a priest at all, since there are priests who offer gifts according to the law. 5 They serve a copy and shadow of the heavenly things. For when Moses was about to erect the tent, he was instructed by God, saying, “See that you make everything according to the pattern that was shown you on the mountain.” 6 But as it is, Christ has obtained a ministry that is as much more excellent than the old as the covenant he mediates is better, since it is enacted on better promises. 7 For if that first covenant had been faultless, there would have been no occasion to look for a second. 8 For he finds fault with them when he says:  “Behold, the days are coming, declares the Lord,    when I will establish a new covenant with the house of Israel    and with the house of Judah, 9 not like the covenant that I made with their fathers    on the day when I took them by the hand to bring them out of the land of Egypt.    For they did not continue in my covenant,    and so I showed no concern for them, declares the Lord. 10 For this is the covenant that I will make with the house of Israel    after those days, declares the Lord:    I will put my laws into their minds,    and write them on their hearts,    and I will be their God,    and they shall be my people. 11 And they shall not teach, each one his neighbor    and each one his brother, saying, ‘Know the Lord,'    for they shall all know me,    from the least of them to the greatest. 12 For I will be merciful toward their iniquities,    and I will remember their sins no more.” 13 In speaking of a new covenant, he makes the first one obsolete. And what is becoming obsolete and growing old is ready to vanish away.

This year we are studying the Gospel in the Old Testament. We continue this series with Senior Pastor Dr. Tyler Smiley speaking from Psalm chapter 8 about God's majesty in the world, the Christ and the church.

In Luke 9:37-45, we see that Christ's majesty is revealed not only in His divine powerbut also in His humility as He journeys toward the cross.The majesty of Christ is displayed among the crowds (vv. 37-43a).Jesus's disciples fail to help the father's only son (vv. 37-40).Jesus rebukes the unbelieving and perverse generation (v. 41).Jesus heals the boy and astonishes the crowd (vv. 42-43a).The mission of Christ is not understood by the disciples (vv. 43b-45).Jesus further reveals his mission of suffering (vv. 43b-44).The disciples fail to understand Jesus's words (v. 45).

April 27, 2025Big Idea: A good God wants to reveal His plans and His purposes to us. Since our natural bent is always against God, He sent Jesus to us. Jesus is the self-revealing God who has brought the Kingdom of God to us. He came to teach us how to live in a manner that fulfills God's most wise and good intentions for all of us, so that many will come to experience His grace and forgiveness.

Recapturing the Majesty of Heaven In this message, we invite you to recapture the awe and wonder of who Jesus truly is. Through the vivid vision given to John in Revelation, we see the majestic King — radiant, powerful, and glorious. This sermon challenges us to: Behold the Majesty of the King — Witness Isaiah's vision of the Lord high and lifted up (Isaiah 6:1–5). Stand in Awe of His Beauty — Desire to gaze on the beauty of the Lord all the days of your life (Psalm 27:4). Walk in Reverent Obedience — Worship our consuming fire with reverence and awe (Hebrews 12:28–29). Long for the Fullness of His Glory — Anticipate the day when God's glory is our everlasting light (Revelation 21:22–23). As we fix our eyes on things above (Colossians 3:1–5), may our hearts be stirred with fresh wonder, leading us to deeper worship, greater obedience, and unshakable hope.

John 3:12-13 If I told you earthly things and you do not believe, how will you believe if I tell you heavenly things? No one has ascended into heaven, but He who descended from heaven: the Son of Man. There's a lot in these two verses, but I want to focus today on one thing. As of the moment Jesus was speaking, no man had ascended into heaven and descended from heaven but Jesus. He came from heaven, but He had descended from heaven and ascended to heaven many times throughout history. Therefore, He could speak of heavenly things. As He previously said, He spoke of what He knew and had seen. He knew of the new birth from a heavenly perspective. He understood, had seen firsthand, and participated in the regenerating work of the Holy Spirit. Such is the authority of Jesus when He speaks. The writer of Hebrews told His readers about Jesus speaking of heavenly things when he wrote, God, after He spoke long ago to the fathers in the prophets in many portions and in many ways, in these last days has spoken to us in His Son, whom He appointed heir of all things, through whom also He made the world. And He is the radiance of His glory and the exact representation of His nature, and upholds all things by the word of His power. When He had made purification of sins, He sat down at the right hand of the Majesty on high (Heb. 1:1-3) And again in this passage. How will we escape if we neglect so great a salvation? After it was at the first spoken through the Lord, it was confirmed to us by those who heard, God also testifying with them, both by signs and wonders and by various miracles and by gifts of the Holy Spirit according to His own will. (Heb. 2:3-4) God has spoken through Jesus of heavenly things, like the new birth and the powerful ministry of the wind of the Holy Spirit. Nicodemus could not see how the kingdom of God and the kingdom of heaven intersected. His only points of reference were in the natural realm. To his thinking, if one was in the lineage of Abraham, then he was in God's kingdom or family. When Jesus spoke of the necessity of the new birth, it was outside of Nick's understanding. It was a mystery to him. A mystery is something that is outside the range of unassisted comprehension—only to be understood with the help of the Holy Spirit. I've discovered that living to love with Jesus is also a mystery. One can't understand it without the Holy Spirit's assistance to believe that Jesus is God in the flesh, has died and was raised (descended from and ascended to heaven), and now has sent the Holy Spirit to generate His life in the bodies and souls of His children. So they live to love with Him in this world. Do you understand that Jesus is life, and He lives in you? Do you see His passion in your life for loving His Father and others? I hope so. That's what I'm calling you to—to live to love with Jesus. I invite you to become a partner in our ministry. Would you pray about becoming a regular supporter of Elijah Ministries and the Live to Love with Jesus ministry? I hope you will receive the joy and benefit of “giving it forward,” so others may receive encouragement to turn their hearts to God and to live to love with Jesus.

In this sermon by Pastor Chris Romig, the focus is on the Sunday after Easter, known as "Low Sunday." Chris explains the term's history and observes how it often feels quieter after Easter's excitement. Despite this, he calls the congregation to see every Sunday worship as a preview of heaven, not a letdown. Using Revelation chapters 4 and 5, Chris describes heavenly worship: God alone is at the center, and the praise builds as more voices join in. He urges listeners to let this vision shape their own worship—reminding them that God draws each person to worship, and that wholehearted, joyful praise is the proper response to God's glory and grace, not mere routine or personal preference. Chris stresses that true worship is humble, grateful, and focused on who God is and what He has done through Jesus Christ. He encourages everyone to participate fully—especially through singing—because, just as in heaven, our worship is meant to be vibrant and communal. He closes by urging believers to move beyond passive attendance and embrace worship that reflects the awe and delight of heaven, so that even an ordinary Sunday is never truly "low" for those who know and love Jesus.

Because God is our almighty, saving God who has promised to keep His people to the end, we can and must trust Him and praise Him for His faithful goodness with extravagant joy.I. We Must Praise Him Because of Who He is and What He Does! v 24 1) He is able to keep you from stumbling 2) He is Able to Present You Blameless and Joyful in His Presence Forever! II. We Can Entrust Ourselves to Him Fully Because of Who He is! v 25 1) Who is this God trust? The only God our Savior 2) What does this great God abound with? Glory, Majesty, Dominion and Authority 3) What is the extent of His power and authority? All time and eternity 4) What is our response? Amen!

Hebrews 8:1-13 – Majesty in Heaven

“Then He said to Abram: “Know certainly that your descendants will be strangers in a land thatis not theirs, and will serve them, and they will afflict them four hundred years. And also thenation whom they serve I will judge; afterward they shall come out with great possessions. Nowas for you, you shall go to your fathers in peace; you shall be buried at a good old age. But inthe fourth generation they shall return here, for the iniquity of the Amorites is not yet complete.””Genesis 15:13-16 NKJVIn the crucible of hardship is the beginning of forming the nationThe moments of hardship bring with them blessings that are set to grow us to the next level ofour faith - if we see it.“Consider it pure joy, my brothers and sisters, whenever you face trials of many kinds, becauseyou know that the testing of your faith produces perseverance. Let perseverance finish its workso that you may be mature and complete, not lacking anything. If any of you lacks wisdom, youshould ask God, who gives generously to all without finding fault, and it will be given to you. Butwhen you ask, you must believe and not doubt, because the one who doubts is like a wave ofthe sea, blown and tossed by the wind. That person should not expect to receive anything fromthe Lord. Such a person is double-minded and unstable in all they do. Believers in humblecircumstances ought to take pride in their high position. For the sun rises with scorching heatand withers the plant; its blossom falls and its beauty is destroyed. In the same way, the rich willfade away even while they go about their business. Blessed is the one who perseveres undertrial because, having stood the test, that person will receive the crown of life that the Lord haspromised to those who love him.”James 1:2-9, 11-12 NIVPerseverance = To remain under“Now all the people witnessed the thunderings, the lightning flashes, the sound of the trumpet,and the mountain smoking; and when the people saw it, they trembled and stood afar off. Thenthey said to Moses,“You speak with us, and we will hear; but let not God speak with us, lest wedie.””Exodus 20:18-19 NKJV“In the past God spoke to our ancestors through the prophets at many times and in variousways, but in these last days he has spoken to us by his Son, whom he appointed heir of allthings, and through whom also he made the universe. The Son is the radiance of God's gloryand the exact representation of his being, sustaining all things by his powerful word. After hehad provided purification for sins, he sat down at the right hand of the Majesty in heaven. So hebecame as much superior to the angels as the name he has inherited is superior to theirs.”Hebrews 1:1-4 NIV““Then have them make a sanctuary for me, and I will dwell among them. Make this tabernacleand all its furnishings exactly like the pattern I will show you.”Exodus 25:8-9 NIV“The Word became flesh and made his dwelling among us. We have seen his glory, the glory ofthe one and only Son, who came from the Father, full of grace and truth.”John 1:14 NIVGod did not wait for them to get to the promised land before He made a wayto be in fellowship with themGod will not be worshipped in the same way as pagan gods are worshipped. He provides forthem a way of worship that is different, specific and unique.The Tabernacle and all its artifacts are a representation of Jesus foreshadowing what was tocome.The Most Holy PlaceThe Ten Commandments -““Do not think that I have come to abolish the Law or the Prophets; I have not come to abolishthem but to fulfill them.”Matthew 5:17 NIVThe Mana -“Jesus said to them,“Very truly I tell you, it is not Moses who has given you the bread fromheaven, but it is my Father who gives you the true bread from heaven. For the bread of God isthe bread that comes down from heaven and gives life to the world.””John 6:32-33 NIV“I am the bread of life. Your ancestors ate the manna in the wilderness, yet they died. But hereis the bread that comes down from heaven, which anyone may eat and not die. I am the livingbread that came down from heaven. Whoever eats this bread will live forever. This bread is myflesh, which I will give for the life of the world.””John 6:48-51 NIVAaron's Rod that budded -“So the Lord said to Aaron,“You and your sons and your father's house with you shall beariniquity connected with the sanctuary, and you and your sons with you shall bear iniquityconnected with your priesthood.”Numbers 18:1 ESV“All we like sheep have gone astray; we have turned—every one—to his own way; and the Lordhas laid on him the iniquity of us all.”Isaiah 53:6 ESV

Order of Service: - Prelude - Hymn 280 - Ride On, Ride On in Majesty: vv. 1 - 3 - John 12:1-8, 12-15: Then, six days before the Passover, Jesus came to Bethany, where Lazarus was who had been dead, whom He had raised from the dead. There they made Him a supper; and Martha served, but Lazarus was one of those who sat at the table with Him. Then Mary took a pound of very costly oil of spikenard, anointed the feet of Jesus, and wiped His feet with her hair. And the house was filled with the fragrance of the oil. But one of His disciples, Judas Iscariot, Simon's son, who would betray Him, said, “Why was this fragrant oil not sold for three hundred denarii and given to the poor?” This he said, not that he cared for the poor, but because he was a thief, and had the money box; and he used to take what was put in it. But Jesus said, “Let her alone; she has kept this for the day of My burial. For the poor you have with you always, but Me you do not have always.” ... The next day a great multitude that had come to the feast, when they heard that Jesus was coming to Jerusalem, took branches of palm trees and went out to meet Him, and cried out: “Hosanna! ‘Blessed is He who comes in the name of the Lord!'

Over the coming months and through our study of the book of Hebrews, we aim to meditate frequently on the glory of Jesus Christ. May our souls be revived by a constant view of his glory - in this book which invites us to consider Christ Jesus, the exalted Savior of weary pilgrims like us. This week we look to Hebrews 2:10-18.1. Why did Christ need to suffer?2. Why did Christ need to take on flesh?“Death is swallowed up in victory.” “O death, where is your victory? O death, where is your sting?” 1 Corinthians 15:54b-553. Why did Christ need to be made like us?Now the point in what we are saying is this: we have such a high priest, one who is seated at the right hand of the throne of the Majesty in heaven, a minister in the holy places, in the true tent that the Lord set up, not man. Hebrews 8:1–2He was despised and rejected by men, a man of sorrows and acquainted with grief; and as one from whom men hide their faces he was despised, and we esteemed him not.  Surely he has borne our griefs and carried our sorrows; yet we esteemed him stricken, smitten by God, and afflicted. But he was pierced for our transgressions; he was crushed for our iniquities; upon him was the chastisement that brought us peace, and with his wounds we are healed.  All we like sheep have gone astray; we have turned—every one—to his own way; and the Lord has laid on him the iniquity of us all.  Isaiah 53:3–6Life Group Discussion Questions: lifechurchnc.com/hebrewsLife Church exists to glorify God by making disciples who treasure Christ, grow together, and live on mission.

For today’s installment of our 40 Days Meditation series, our brother Abyong Calo provides commentary on Heb 8:1-13. Listen below, download here, or search for Words from the Brothers on your favourite podcasting app. Now the point in what we are saying is this: we have such a high priest, one who is seated at the right hand of the throne of the Majesty in heaven, a minister in the holy places, in the true tent that the Lord set up, not man. For every high priest is appointed to offer gifts and sacrifices; thus it is necessary for this priest also to have something to offer. Now if he were on earth, he would not be a priest at all, since there are priests who offer gifts according to the law. They serve a copy and shadow of the heavenly things. For when Moses was about to erect the tent, he was instructed by God, saying, “See that you make everything according to the pattern that was shown you on the mountain.” But as it is, Christ has obtained a ministry that is as much more excellent than the old as the covenant he mediates is better, since it is enacted on better promises. For if that first covenant had been faultless, there would have been no occasion to look for a second. For he finds fault with them when he says: “Behold, the days are coming, declares the Lord, when I will establish a new covenant with the house of Israel and with the house of Judah, not like the covenant that I made with their fathers on the day when I took them by the hand to bring them out of the land of Egypt. For they did not continue in my covenant, and so I showed no concern for them, declares the Lord. For this is the covenant that I will make with the house of Israel after those days, declares the Lord: I will put my laws into their minds, and write them on their hearts, and I will be their God, and they shall be my people. And they shall not teach, each one his neighbor and each one his brother, saying, ‘Know the Lord,’ for they shall all know me, from the least of them to the greatest. For I will be merciful toward their iniquities, and I will remember their sins no more.” In speaking of a new covenant, he makes the first one obsolete. And what is becoming obsolete and growing old is ready to vanish away. Heb 8:1-13

Passage: 1 Hear a just cause, O Lord; attend to my cry!  Give ear to my prayer from lips free of deceit! 2 From your presence let my vindication come!  Let your eyes behold the right! 3 You have tried my heart, you have visited me by night,  you have tested me, and you will find nothing;  I have purposed that my mouth will not transgress. 4 With regard to the works of man,  by the word of your lips  I have avoided the ways of the violent. 5 My steps have held fast to your paths;  my feet have not slipped. 6 I call upon you, for you will answer me, O God;  incline your ear to me; hear my words. 7 Wondrously show your steadfast love,  O Savior of those who seek refuge  from their adversaries at your right hand.

For today’s installment of our 40 Days Meditation series, our brother Abyong Calo provides commentary on Heb 1:1-2:4. Listen below, download here, or search for Words from the Brothers on your favourite podcasting app. Long ago, at many times and in many ways, God spoke to our fathers by the prophets, but in these last days he has spoken to us by his Son, whom he appointed the heir of all things, through whom also he created the world. He is the radiance of the glory of God and the exact imprint of his nature, and he upholds the universe by the word of his power. After making purification for sins, he sat down at the right hand of the Majesty on high, having become as much superior to angels as the name he has inherited is more excellent than theirs. For to which of the angels did God ever say, “You are my Son, today I have begotten you”? Or again, “I will be to him a father, and he shall be to me a son”? And again, when he brings the firstborn into the world, he says, “Let all God’s angels worship him.” Of the angels he says, “He makes his angels winds, and his ministers a flame of fire.” But of the Son he says, “Your throne, O God, is forever and ever, the scepter of uprightness is the scepter of your kingdom. You have loved righteousness and hated wickedness; therefore God, your God, has anointed you with the oil of gladness beyond your companions.” And, “You, Lord, laid the foundation of the earth in the beginning, and the heavens are the work of your hands; they will perish, but you remain; they will all wear out like a garment, like a robe you will roll them up, like a garment they will be changed. But you are the same, and your years will have no end.” And to which of the angels has he ever said, “Sit at my right hand until I make your enemies a footstool for your feet”? Are they not all ministering spirits sent out to serve for the sake of those who are to inherit salvation? Therefore we must pay much closer attention to what we have heard, lest we drift away from it. For since the message declared by angels proved to be reliable, and every transgression or disobedience received a just retribution, how shall we escape if we neglect such a great salvation? It was declared at first by the Lord, and it was attested to us by those who heard, while God also bore witness by signs and wonders and various miracles and by gifts of the Holy Spirit distributed according to his will. Heb 1:1-2:4

Pastor Dru Rodriguez invites us to see scripture as more than mere information by highlighting its beauty and the transformative presence of Jesus in every part of the biblical narrative. He reminds us that through Jesus, we encounter the profound glory of God's character and enduring power.

In this episode Lane Tipton and Camden Bucey continue their discussion of Geerhardus Vos's Biblical Theology, focusing on pages 369–371. This section addresses Jesus' teaching on the divine majesty and greatness, the retributive righteousness of God, and the implications for true religion. Lane Tipton explains how Vos maintains the biblical tension between God's transcendent majesty and his loving condescension. They discuss how Vos's doctrine of God stands against the errors of theological liberalism, which often reduces the divine character to a single attribute of love divorced from holiness and righteousness. The conversation highlights how Jesus' teaching does not abandon the concept of divine retribution but presents it as an essential and irreducible aspect of God's nature. Drawing connections to the contemporary theological landscape, Camden and Lane address modern tendencies to elevate divine love to the exclusion of justice. They also explore the ways in which Reformed theology provides a robust foundation for understanding God's attributes in their fullness, without compromising his immutability or impassibility. Listen in as they unpack Vos's profound insights and demonstrate how they continue to speak to modern theological debates. 00:07 Introduction 07:41 Vos's Critique of Liberalism 11:32 The Attributes of God 17:02 The Impassibility of God and Its Importance 28:19 True Religion and God's Transcendence 33:04 The Retributive Righteousness of God 44:51 Practical Application 49:53 Conclusion
