Good is not the issue.

Message: The Letter to the Hebrews  

Text: Hebrews 9:15-22  

Testament and testator is the same as our last will and testament.  

Old Testament law, before that the Passover, before that God used an animal to cover Adam and Eve’s sin.  

Death is the consequence of sin and death is the payment for sin.  

Blood is not the issue. An animal couldn’t just be injured for the blood, it had to die. Blood that leads to death is the payment for sin.  

We must never forget: good is not the issue, bad is the issue.  

In an unexpected twist, Satan wants good to be the issue. In a very superficial way, he wants you to do good in order to not think about the bad.  

Only Christians teach that God is reaching down to man. Everyone else tends toward man reaching up to God.  

John 20:27 NIV
