This is the seventh class on the book of Hebrews. This Bible class was taught at the Pilot Point Church in Pilot Point Texas.

The following is the outline of the class.

Chapter 3 Jesus the great emancipator

Jesus the Son is greater than Moses Chapters 3:1-4:13

Important points to remember verses 1-6:

• Moses and Jesus were exodus leaders. • Just like Moses lead Gods people out of bondage to the promised land , Moses was unique until Jesus came • Jesus as an exodus leader takes Gods people out of bondage [the bondage of sin ] and brings them to a new promised land [ the new heaven and earth ] and He is greater • He's not dealing with Moses as a lawgiver he's already dealt with that in chapter 1:1-3 Prophets • We see the son from 2 viewpoints 1. THE APOSTLE 3:1-4:14 2. THE HIGH PRIEST 4:14-10:18

Hebrews 3(NIV)

Jesus Greater Than Moses

Therefore, holy brothers and sisters, who share in the heavenly calling, fix your thoughts on Jesus, whom we acknowledge as our apostle and high priest. 2He was faithful to the one who appointed him, just as Moses was faithful in all God's house. 3Jesus has been found worthy of greater honor than Moses, just as the builder of a house has greater honor than the house itself. 4For every house is built by someone, but God is the builder of everything. 5" Moses was faithful as a servant in all God's house," bearing witness to what would be spoken by God in the future. 6But Christ is faithful as the Son over God's house. And we are his house, if indeed we hold firmly to our confidence and the hope in which we glory.

Different types of Apostles

Remembering the word apostle means one sent out.

1. Apostles sent by God – Moses and Jesus 2. Apostles sent by Jesus-14 3. Apostles sent/commissioned by the Holy Spirit –Barnabas James 4. Anybody sent out i.e. the church • 'I know your deeds and your toil and perseverance, and that you cannot tolerate evil men, and you put to the test those who call themselves apostles, and they are not, and you found them to be false • 2 Corinthians 12:12 The signs of a true apostle were performed among you with all perseverance, by signs and wonders and miracles. (NASB)

Hebrews 3(NKJV)

6but Christ was faithful as a Son over His house—whose house we are, if we hold fast our confidence and the boast of our hope firm until the end. 7Therefore, as the Holy Spirit says: "Today, if you will hear His voice, 8Do not harden your hearts as in the rebellion, in the day of trial in the wilderness, 9Where your fathers tested Me, tried Me, And saw My works forty years. 10Therefore I was angry with that generation, And said, 'They always go astray in their heart, And they have not known My ways.' 11So I swore in My wrath, 'They shall not enter My rest.'"

2 Things you Need for an Assurance of Going to Heaven

6but Christ was faithful as a Son over His house—whose house we are if we hold fast our confidence and the boast of our hope firm until the end. 1. A hope of your salvation- to the degree that you glory in it 2. An outspoken faith

If you have that, God is building into you the characteristics that will take you all the way into heaven! But in your hearts revere Christ as Lord. Always be prepared to give an answer to everyone who asks you to give the reason for the hope that you have. But do this with gentleness and respect, 1 Peter 3:15(NIV)
