Hebrews 10:1-25-- Confidence to Enter
Scripture: Hebrews 10:1-25 (especially verses 19 to 25)
In some sense, the first 9 chapters of Hebrews have all been leading up to this literary moment. The author is about to take a turn in chapter 11, so chapter 10 is the crescendo of all the arguments we've seen so far about Jesus' priesthood, covenant, and ministry being far better than the things of old.
Reading those arguments, beautiful though they may be, you might wonder a fair question-- 'So what? What's the point? How does this affect me?' (Okay, three fair questions.) In chapter 10, you get your answer.
