Hebrews – A Call to Commitment:
           “Limitations of the Old Worship System”
                                  Hebrews 9:1-10

• In John 4:19-26, Jesus explains the future of Worship.

        Four Limitations of the Old Worship System:

1.   The Temporary Nature of Earthly Worship

•  Everything physical decays.

 

 

 

2.   Restricted Access: Barriers 

• V-2-5   This section emphasizes the system of barriers between the worshiper and God.

 

 

 

3.   Limited Access: The Priesthood

•  V-6-8   This section is all about limited access to God.
• V-8   The point of referring to the Priestly ministry in the two tabernacles is made clear here.

 

 

4.   Partial Cleansing: Not all sin was forgiven!

•  V-9  The gifts and sacrifices were incapable of cleansing their  conscience.
• Conscience: “the whole interior self.”  It reflects upon the relationship of the whole person to God.
• Sin erects a barrier between man and God; it is always a heart issue.
• Defilement extends from the body to the heart.
• V-10  The old forms are obsolete: Col. 2:16-17
