In this message we explore a profound and stirring passage from the book of Hebrews, one that calls us to reflect deeply on our salvation, our sacrifice, and our service to God. Hebrews 13:10-16 provides us with a rich tapestry of theological truths that not only illuminate the path of our redemption but also challenge us to live lives of faithful devotion and sacrificial service.

Our journey today will take us through three pivotal points:

• Grace Not Works - Not Both (v.10): This verse draws a clear line between the old covenant of works and the new covenant of grace. It underscores the futility of attempting to earn God's favor through our deeds while emphasizing the sufficiency of Christ's sacrifice.

This point turns our attention to Ephesians 2:5 which says, "Even when we were dead in sins, hath quickened us together with Christ, (by grace ye are saved;)" This reminds us to remember our past condition—dead in sin—and the miraculous transformation through Christ who made us alive.

• Our Second Point – The Sacrificial Type & Antitype (vs. 11-13): The sacrificial system of the Old Testament finds its fulfillment in Jesus Christ, the ultimate sacrifice. He suffered outside the gate to sanctify us, calling us to bear His reproach and follow Him.

Let us be encouraged and emboldened to live out our faith with conviction, knowing that our salvation, our sacrifice, and our service are all rooted in the grace and love of our Lord Jesus Christ.
