This sermon highlights that Jesus Christ is not merely the founder of our faith but its very substance and fulfillment. The speaker explains that the book of Hebrews was written to encourage weary believers tempted to turn back to old religious systems. Its central message is that Jesus is greater than angels, Moses, and every earthly priest — the perfect mediator who has completed salvation once for all.
The preacher exhorts believers to “hold fast” to their confession of faith, drawing strength from Christ’s example and ongoing priestly work. Unlike the shadows and symbols of the Old Covenant, Jesus embodies the reality those symbols pointed to. Therefore, the call is not only to trust in His finished work but to live faithfully, encouraged by His grace and anchored in His unchanging nature.
Key Takeaway
True endurance and faith come from fixing our eyes on Jesus — the living substance behind every promise of God and the reason we can persevere with confidence and hope.
