Better Things

Pastor Packet · Free

Better Things opens at the hinge of the letter, where the hardest warning in Hebrews turns on a single word: "But, beloved, we are convinced of better things concerning you" (Hebrews 6:9). Across five weeks the series moves from that turn to the work God is not unjust to forget, the oath God swore by Himself to Abraham, the two unchangeable things in which "it is impossible for God to lie," and the anchor of the soul that enters within the veil, where Jesus has gone ahead as forerunner. In a congregation it pastors the faithful but weary -- honest about the warning, then patient with the promise -- and leaves the room anchored to a high priest who is interceding now.
