Hebrews 9:11-12, in any human legal or religious system, the roles are always separate, the priest is one person, the sacrifice is a different creature, the person who writes the will is someone else entirely, these roles are never combined. Jesus Christ fills all three, he is priest, he did not...

Galatians 5:22-23, there is a fake version of this fruit that you can manufacture on your your own, you can fake peace by just numbing yourself with entertainment or alcohol, that is not peace, that is avoidance. You can fake patience by just bottling up your anger until you explode, that is not...

Now, Jesus also told his followers to wait for God’s presence to come and guide them into the future. So during Pentecost, a festival in Jerusalem, God’s Spirit comes down on them, like they’re each mini temples who are filled with God’s presence. Mini temples? Just like God took up residence in...

Adam and Eve forfeited their calling as the Royal Priesthood, but God promised that one of their descendants would be an even better priest, who will defeat evil and intervene on their behalf to restore the blessings of Eden. This descendant would be a Royal Priest like Melchizedek, that Abraham...

Matthew 6:33, that promise is powerful, but it comes with a condition, first, seek the Kingdom of God. The problem is that many people want the promise, they want peace without surrender, provision without obedience, freedom without discipline and when those things don’t happen, they blame God...

Mark 5:15, the true sign of this man finding total spiritual freedom was that his mind was restored to complete sanity and peace, this is what Jesus wants to do for you today. The enemy has tried to hijack your thoughts for years, they have tried to make you believe that you are going crazy...

In reality, we trust God only as long as life feels safe, the bills are paid, as long as the diagnosis isn’t serous, as long as the relationship isn’t falling apart, the moment things go wrong, fear takes the driver’s seat and faith gets pushed into the back, that’s not faith rooted in truth...

Romans 3:19-20, what is the actual purpose of the moral laws of God? Many people falsely believe that the law of God is a ladder that you climb to reach heaven, they think that if they can just obey enough rules, God will have to accept them, but Paul says the exact opposite, the law is not a...

Matthew 6:34, this single sentence contains a profound secret to maintaining your strength, Jesus is teaching you the power of living strictly in the present moment. God provides grace and strength to help you handle the problems of today, he does not provide today, the strength you need for...

Israel’s God explicitly commanded them to not make any idol images, because in the Bible, all humanity is God’s image. Adam and Eve, in Hebrew, their names mean human “Adam” and life “Eve,” they’re called God’s image, which means they represent God in his Holy space. That Holy space is a garden...

Ephesians 2:8-9, this truth confronts one of humanity’s greatest vices, the need to earn. You live in a world conditioned to reward performance, but the Kingdom of God operates on another principle, that of unearned grace. Grace is the divine favor that reaches you despite your failures and not...

Moses on Mount Sinai, show me your face and God said you can’t, because here, outside of Eden, it’s dangerous, you’ll die, but Moses saw the back of God, a great metaphor for the indescribable.

Romans 3:13-14, Paul wants you to see exactly how deep this sickness of the heart truly goes, he takes you on a tour of the human body to show how sin has infected infected every single part of your nature. A tomb is a place of decay, death and terrible odors, Paul is saying, that the words that...

Matthew 6:33, that promise is powerful, but it comes with a condition, first, seek the Kingdom of God. The problem is that many people want the promise, they want peace without surrender, provision without obedience, freedom without discipline and when those things don’t happen, they blame God...

Matthew is presenting Jesus as the new Moses, he’s the new Moses doing the thing Moses hoped would happen. Moses hoped for something and that’s the message of the Torah and Jesus is saying, I’m doing the thing that Moses hoped for.
