Ep. 433 We Have an Alter
📖 Ep. 433 – WE HAVE AN ALTAR
The Supremacy of Christ
Hebrews 13:9–14
In a world full of religious systems, rituals, and substitutes, Scripture reminds us: *we have an altar.* Not a physical structure—but a Person. Jesus Christ is our altar, our sacrifice, our High Priest, and our only hope.
🔎 1. JESUS IS THE ONLY ACCESS TO GOD
The old covenant pointed forward as a shadow, but the substance is Christ. The law and sacrifices could never perfect the worshiper—but Jesus can. He is the greater and more perfect tabernacle, and as He declared in [[John 14:6]], He alone is the way to the Father.
🩸 2. ONLY JESUS CAN ABSOLVE SIN
Christ suffered outside the gate, fulfilling what the Day of Atonement foreshadowed in [[Leviticus 16]]. His sacrifice was once for all. No repeated offerings. No additional payment. His blood sanctifies completely.
🔥 3. GOD DESIRES ABSOLUTE OBEDIENCE
The call is not merely belief—but identification. “Let us go to Him outside the camp.” True worship is not empty ritual but a broken and contrite heart. Obedience is better than sacrifice.
🏙️ 4. JESUS IS THE ONLY ADMISSION INTO HEAVEN
This world is not our lasting city. We seek the one to come—the heavenly city whose builder and maker is God. Through Christ alone we are sanctified and welcomed into that eternal kingdom where the Lord Himself is the light.
Join us as we continue through Hebrews and magnify the supremacy of Christ—the only altar, the only sacrifice, and the only Savior.
