You Have Now Been Born Again Into The Family Of Jesus Christ!
Hebrews 10:12-14 (NIV)
But when this priest had offered for all time one sacrifice for sins, he sat down at the right hand of God. Since that time he waits for his enemies to be made his footstool, because by one sacrifice he has made perfect for ever those who are being made holy.
Jesus came into this cursed world to become the perfect sacrifice mankind needed so that God our Father would now allow such a sacrifice to cover over all sins that human beings are capable of committing. This Jesus Christ died in this world and then rose from the dead to establish this new covenant, which now allows every human being to join this religion, which replaced the previous covenant requiring animal sacrifices which God required to forgive sins. Salvation is now offered to everyone who believes that Jesus Christ is the Savior that God our Father sent into this world!
In the selected verses for this commentary the writer of Hebrews is referring to Jesus as, “this priest had offered for all time one sacrifice for sins, he sat down at the right hand of God.” Then this writer reports the result of this perfect sacrifice, “by one sacrifice he has made perfect for ever those who are being made holy.’ Did you get that comment about the result of becoming a follower of Jesus Christ? Followers of Jesus Christ. “are being made holy,” and “he (Jesus) has made perfect for ever those who are being made holy.”
That perfection cannot be experienced completely while you are still living in this cursed world, but perfection is reserved for your immortal soul and will be experienced when you die and leave this world and go to the room Jesus has prepared for you in the Paradise of God. If you feel undeserving of such blessing in this lifetime, read what the writer of Hebrews wrote about why Jesus came into this world as a human being. For we do not have a high priest who is unable to sympathize with our weaknesses, but we have one who has been tempted in every way, just as we are—yet was without sin. Let us then approach the throne of grace with confidence, so that we may receive mercy and find grace to help us in our time of need. (Hebrews 4:15-16).
When you became a believing follower of Jesus Christ, you were born again and you were changed to better understand how you will live in this cursed world. Your perception of worldly opportunities has changed so you can decide to avoid sinful situations and thus you may not commit the sin before you! The writer of Hebrews wrote, “Let us then approach the throne of grace with confidence, so that we may receive mercy and find grace to help us in our time of need.”
Paul wrote to the church in Ephesus and for us about this feeling of belonging we should have as believers in Jesus Christ. Consequently, you are no longer foreigners and strangers, but fellow citizens with God’s people and also members of his household, built on the foundation of the apostles and prophets, with Christ Jesus himself as the chief cornerstone. (Ephesians 2:19-20). You have now been born again into the family of Jesus Christ! Thus, you are heirs through your salvation by believing in your brother Jesus Christ.
You are still living in a temporary place so it is difficult to imagine having an immortal piece that offers you eternal life, but it is the part of you that will live on and someday see Jesus Christ face-to-face! This is the faith that gives you joy and a feeling of fulfillment in this lifetime in this world! Now faith is being sure of what we hope for and certain of what we do not see. (Hebrews 11:1). This description of faith shows a dependance on our hope being centered on God’s promises of future events that will not occur on this earth, as it says we are “certain of what we do not see.”
Peter wrote about our hope in this world and how people who cling to this world may not understand how we maintain a hopeful attitude when things may not be going great for us now! But in your hearts set apart Christ as Lord. Always be prepared to give an answer to everyone who asks you to give the reason for the hope that you have. But do this with gentleness and respect, keeping a clear conscience, so that those who speak maliciously against your good behavior in Christ may be ashamed of their slander. It is better, if it is God’s will, to suffer for doing good than for doing evil. (1 Peter 3:15-17).
Parents here is some good advice from Solomon. Start children off on the way they should go, and even when they are old they will not turn from it. (Proverbs 22:6). Social media will do this job for you if you do not have time to help your children to include the Bible’s stories about creation and about Jesus Christ. some children have reported when they hear the term Jesus Christ, they know their dad or mom is really mad about something. If they hear it in your home, what do they think?
Jesus has said this about salvation that most people in this world today are getting on a path that will lead them to hell! Enter through the narrow gate. For wide is the gate and broad is the road that leads to destruction, and many enter through it. But small is the gate and narrow the road that leads to life, and only a few find it. (Matthew 7:13-14). It seems this choice of which path to take in life has not changed much since Jesus said this! Only about one third of the earth’s population is made up of professing Christians!
Many people may fail this test Jesus gave to the Rich Young Man! Jesus looked at him and loved him. "One thing you lack," he said. "Go, sell everything you have and give to the poor, and you will have treasure in heaven. Then come, follow me." At this the man’s face fell. He went away sad, because he had great wealth. Jesus looked around and said to his disciples, "How hard it is for the rich to enter the kingdom of God!" (Matthew 10:21-23).
No, you do not have to give away all your money before you can follow Jesus! You just must love Jesus more than you love your money (possessions)! Jesus said, "No-one can serve two masters. Either he will hate the one and love the other, or he will be devoted to the one and despise the other. You cannot serve both God and Money.” (Matthew 6:24). Show Jesus, you love Him more than your money, give some of your money to a church of your choice. Just take it with you when you attend there on every Sabbath Day! The Lord loves a cheerful giver!
