Hebrews: HE IS!
/
It's all about Jesus...it's all about HIM! How He's the Son of God...and the Son of Man!
How He's better than everything! How He's incomparable! Our Great High Priest! The Captain of our Faith! Our Savior! The Great Shepherd of the Sheep! Our Sabbath Rest! The Sacrifice for Sin! And so much more!
And because of Him and all He is and all He's done... Because He's gone before, paved the way for us...
Now we can "run our lap in God's race of faith" with endurance [after all, it's a "marathon"], hope, faith, love [it's also a "relay"]
Fixing our eyes on Him, the Author and Perfecter of our faith...
Remembering we are part of something bigger than ourselves...God's great timeline of people of faith (Hebrews 11)
And remembering we are receiving a Kingdom that cannot be shaken!
That's the book of Hebrews...that's the Bible, Old Testament and New
It's all about HIM...because HE IS!
