Preaching from Hebrews

Dr. John W. Kleinig
October 03-07, 2016

The letter to the Hebrews is a written sermon, a word of encouragement to a dispirited congregation that shows its members how they have access to God’s gracious heavenly presence in the divine service through Jesus their great high priest. There they listen in on the conversation between God and His Son. There Jesus not only brings God’s Word and His good gifts to them but also brings them and their offerings to God. By His blood He cleanses their consciences from all impurity in preparation for participation with the angels in the heavenly liturgy and sanctifies by their participation in it. This unit explores the rich liturgical teaching of this sermon. (3.0 CEU)
