The Perfect High Priest
There’s so much to learn & reflect on & be *thankful* for, about Jesus’s priesthood. This Sunday we are carrying on our series in Hebrews, looking at Jesus’s eternal and perfect priesthood — by which he is able to save us completely.
Drawing Near To God
Last week we learnt a lot about Melchizedek. This week, we will use what we’ve learnt and see how Jesus compares and why a better priest is still needed after the order of Melchizedek. Your belly is less likely to rumble during service if you come at 10am for some pre-service refreshments and fellowship, followed …
A Greater One
Last Sunday, in our 10 verses text of Hebrews 7:1-10, we saw the author explain very thoroughly about the greatness of Melchizedek, even over the priesthood of the Levites. He was so superior that he blessed Abraham and Abraham paid a tithe to him. This passage shows us that the Old Testament is not outdated …
An Anchor for the Soul
When all around my soul gives way, He then is all my hope and stay”Is your soul tired and weary, exhausted from self and longing for something more steady and sure to hold you? Life gets overwhelming, but there is a sure promise for us in Hebrews 6:13-20. Let us come and be taught, reminded …
A Warning Against Apostasy

The Royal High Priest
In the Old Testament, high priests had to continually offer burnt offerings for the sins of the people against God. These offerings and the role of a high priest is a reminder of the cost of sin, and a reminder of God’s mercy. How is Jesus as our high priest similar and different from those …
The Anatomy of Perseverance
Perseverance is a necessary aspect of the Christian life. When the going gets tough — when frustrations and failures set in — how do we carry on?Hebrews 4 tells us of our Great High Priest who sympathises with our weaknesses and has mercy on sinners. This is the key for our perseverance.
Fear Fuelled Faith
Every day, is a day of opportunity to enter God’s rest. The writer of Hebrews urges us not to let this opportunity pass. This was the subject of Chris’s message last Sunday. The Hebrews passage shows us further that, in entering God’s rest, we must strive in faith and the fear of God — we …
Do Not Harden Your Hearts Towards God
Hebrews 3:7-19, led us to inspect our hearts, or as Nick put it – carry out an internal audit to see what our relationship with God truly is. It is possible to know the truth of the gospel, yet give in to unbelief and harden our hearts. This unbelief will cause us to not be …
