May 21, 2023Why We Sing About the BloodIn this sermon, Pastor David Mathis expounds Hebrews 9:15-22 which tells us why Jesus had to shed his blood. Humans have sinned, thus the blood is required. But what does the blood do? Jesus's blood redeems former sins, enacts a new covenant, and uphold the new covenant. In the blood of his eternal covenant, we see the greatness of Jesus, and therefore, we come to worship him....more42minPlay
May 14, 2023Jesus in My PlaceIn this sermon, Pastor Kenny Ortiz expounds Hebrews 9:1-14 which teaches on our eternal sacrifice, the New Covenant. The blood of Jesus was better than the blood of a goat in the Old Covenant. This better covenant was a blood without blemish, a permanent and willing sacrifice by Jesus in which he substituted himself in our place against wrath, and because of what Jesus accomplished on the cross – our sins have forever been atoned for by God's forgiveness and love. Jesus is the only way to deal with our sin. Jesus went to the cross for you....more38minPlay
May 07, 2023What’s New About the New Covenant?In this sermon, Pastor Jonathan Parnell expounds Hebrews 8:7-13 which is all about the New Covenant. The New Covenant targets the Old Covenant problem of unbelief and unfaithfulness. All members of the New Covenant have the instruction of Yahweh written on their hearts. The New Covenant declares the entire forgiveness of all the sins of every covenant member....more38minPlay
April 30, 2023Such a Superior CovenantIn this sermon, Pastor David Mathis expounds Hebrews 8:1-7 which is the midway point of the Book of Hebrews. Jesus is the new covenant and he is so much superior to the old. Jesus serves in a superior place, Jesus makes a superior offering, and Jesus mediates a superior covenant. We live with this new covenant right now and forever....more42minPlay
April 23, 2023Our Eternal, Perfect PriestIn this sermon, Pastor Jonathan Parnell expounds Hebrews 7:20-28 which is about the hope of the new covenant – a better hope, a better covenant, a better salvation. Jesus gives us a better hope because God swore that he is our High priest like Melchizedek. Jesus guarantees us a better salvation because he is our eternal high priest and he is our perfect high priest. Jesus – the all-sufficient sacrifice – is alive forever, and he intercedes for us....more43minPlay
April 16, 2023Jesus, the Priest in the Order of MelchizedekIn this sermon, Pastor Kenny Ortiz expounds Hebrews 7:1-19 which points to the reality that Jesus, in his perfection, is superior to the old way. The old covenant was not sufficient to complete the redeeming work we need, therefore we needed a new covenant. Jesus fulfilled this need through his power of an indestructible, never-ending life. He is forever our Great High Priest, the sure and steadfast anchor of our soul. Jesus is better....more37minPlay
April 09, 2023Our Strongest EncouragementIn this sermon, on Easter Sunday, Pastor Jonathan Parnell expounds Hebrews 6:13-20 which is most importantly about the resurrection glory of Jesus. Last week, we learned the writer of Hebrews is confident in the salvation of these people and in this week's text we see that it is because God sees, God swore, and Jesus is risen....more40minPlay
April 02, 2023Convinced of Better ThingsIn this sermon, Pastor Jonathan Parnell expounds one of the strongest, most uncomfortable warning passages in the New Testament – Hebrews 6:4–6. The sad reality is that there are people who fall away from Jesus. They “taste” the truth, yet they fail to cling to Jesus — but we can be confident that our story won’t be like theirs. ...more43minPlay
March 26, 2023The Maturity ComebackIn this sermon, Pastor Jonathan Parnell expounds upon Hebrews 5:11-6:3 which is the Hebrew author's inspirational word to the people to make a comeback by pressing on to maturity. They were still feeding on milk, when they ought to be eating solid food by now. When comparing and contrasting the world with the Church, we see churches in our society get stuck on the common ground preference, and our secular society approves of this. But despite societal opposition, we want Cities Church, by God's grace, to progress on to further maturity....more41minPlay
March 19, 2023Draw NearIn this sermon, Pastor Mike Schumann preaches from Hebrews 4:14-5:10. Jesus is the Great High Priest and as such he is Son, sinless, and sympathetic. The author of Hebrews ensures that we know Jesus is able to sympathize with our weaknesses, therefore we should know to draw near to Jesus when we are feeling weary....more30minPlay
