ý"THOUGHT FOR THE DAY!" by Pastor Robert Oliver
Hebrews 10:14 says~ "FOR BY 'ONE' OFFERING HE HATH PERFECTED 'FOR EVER' THEM THAT 'ARE' SANCTIFIED!"
Oh Glory to GOD What a Verse! Beloved Believers Please Listen 'Closely' today, as We Examine the Incredible 'Accomplishment' of OUR "GREAT HIGH PRIEST!" Let's Explore "6" Things Here:
First, Notice the "SACRIFICE!" He writes~ "FOR BY 'ONE' OFFERING!" Oh Me Oh My Church, Did You 'Catch' That? Paul says that The 'Levitical' Priests Offered "MANY" Sacrifices & Offerings for 'Sin' Year by Year "Continually!" But "THIS MAN" OFFERED "ONE" SACRIFICE 'FOR' SIN, and Then "SAT DOWN!" Listen Now, the LORD JESUS CHRIST, 'OUR' GREAT HIGH PRIEST, ONLY NEEDED "ONE" SINGLE "OFFERING" FOR SIN, 'Never' to Be Duplicated, 'Never' to Be Repeated, 'Never' to Be Emancipated! And Notice 'How' the Apostle Describes The CROSS: "ONE OFFERING!" He's Saying that The 'CROSS' Was Actually a "SACRIFICE TO GOD THE FATHER!!!"
But Secondly, Notice "WHO" Made the Offering: He says~ "FOR BY ONE OFFERING HE!" Question: 'WHO' is the "HE" of verse 14? Answer: 'HE' is the "JESUS CHRIST" of verse 10! It's a Progression, and The 'Whole' Passage is Dealing with a 'Comparison' Between Old Testament 'Sacrifices' and THE "ONE" New Testament "SACRIFICE" of "JESUS CHRIST!" And 'When' HE Came 2000 Years Ago HE Was 'Functioning' in HIS Office as "THE GREAT PROPHET!" But Right 'NOW' HE Is Functioning In HIS Office as "THE GREAT HIGH PRIEST!" But Very "Soon" HE Will Be 'Functioning' in HIS Office as "THE GREAT KING!!!" HE is "JESUS CHRIST!!!"
Ok But Thirdly, Notice "WHAT" HE Has DONE: He says~ "For 'By' ONE Offering HE 'HATH' PERFECTED!" What? Church, Did He Say "PERFECTED?" Oh Yes 'Indeed' HE Did Beloved! Listen Now, JESUS CHRIST 'Made' an Offering (Sacrifice) For 'SIN' that BRINGS "PERFECTION" to All 'Those' Who "RECEIVE IT!!!" Did You 'Hear' What I Just Said??? Listen to Me: THE 'BLOOD' OF JESUS CHRIST HIS SON 'CLEANSETH' US FROM "ALL" SIN!!! Now Listen 'Carefully' to verse 1~ "FOR THE 'LAW'....CAN 'NEVER' WITH 'THOSE' SACRIFICES...'MAKE' THE COMERS 'THEREUNTO' PERFECT!" Did You 'Catch' That? Paul said that the "SACRIFICIAL CODE" of 'MOSES' COULD "NEVER" MAKE ONE "PERFECT!!!" But verse 12 Says~ "BUT 'THIS' MAN, AFTER 'HE' HAD OFFERED 'ONE' SACRIFICE 'FOR' SINS FOR EVER, SAT DOWN!!!" Listen to me Now Beloved: there was 'One' Article of Furniture "Missing" from the Old Testament 'Temple'- and that was a "CHAIR!" There Was "NO CHAIR" Because the Priest's 'Work' Was "NEVER FINISHED" and 'Therefore' He Could Not "SIT DOWN" Because there were Always 'More' SINS Requiring 'More' Sacrifices! But Listen: 'When' JESUS CHRIST "OFFERED" HIS OWN 'BODY' as a "SACRIFICE FOR SIN" IT WAS A "PERFECT ACT" WHICH "PERFECTS" ALL 'THOSE' WHO WILL "APPROPRIATE" IT!!!
But Fourthly, Notice the "DURATION" of this PERFECTING: He writes~ "FOR BY 'ONE' OFFERING HE HATH PERFECTED 'FOR' EVER!" Oh My Beloved, do You 'Realize' today, that the "EFFICACY" of JESUS' BLOOD is "ETERNAL?" That's Right, the "PERFECTING" WORK of HIS "OFFERING" Will 'ENDURE' Throughout "ALL ETERNITY!!!" The Cleansing 'Away' of Sin's 'Filth' Will Remain Perfect "FOR EVER" Because of The 'HOLY ONE' That "MADE THE OFFERING!!!"
But Fifthly, Notice "WHO" it PERFECTS: He says~ "FOR BY 'ONE' OFFERING HE HATH 'PERFECTED' FOR EVER THEM!" Question: "WHO" is the "THEM" of verse 14? Answer: it's All 'those' Described in verse 17~ "AND 'THEIR' SINS & INIQUITIES WILL I REMEMBER 'NO' MORE!" It's All 'Those' Who verse 16 Says~ "THUS SAITH THE LORD, I WILL 'PUT' MY LAWS INTO 'THEIR' HEARTS, AND IN 'THEIR' MINDS WILL I WRITE THEM!" Beloved Saints, 'Every' Single One of Us Who Are "BORN OF GOD" are the "THEM" of verse 14!
But sixthly, Finally, Notice Our "POSITIONAL SANCTIFICATION!" He writes~ "FOR BY 'ONE' OFFERING HE HATH 'PERFECTED' FOR EVER 'THEM' THAT 'ARE' SANCTIFIED!" Oh Glory! Don't 'Miss' this Incredible 'Truth' Believer: The "WORD OF GOD" Boldly 'Proclaims' Here, that Certain 'Individuals' in This World, Have Been "PLACED" Into a "POSITION" of "PERFECT SANCTIFICATION" Before GOD!!! That is, that 'We' Have Been "TOTALLY" Cleansed 'From' Sin, Baptized (HOLY SPIRIT) "Into" JESUS CHRIST, and Eternally 'Written' Into the "LAMB'S BOOK OF LIFE!!!" Now, Do Not 'Confuse' this "POSITIONAL" Sanctification with Your "PRACTICAL" Sanctification! They're Spelled Different! Listen, a 'Lack' of "Practical" Sanctification Will 'Cause Doubt' of One's 'Positional' Sanctification, even though it is "IRREVOCABLE!!!" Listen, verse 10 says~ "BY THE WHICH 'WILL' (GOD'S) WE 'ARE SANCTIFIED' THROUGH THE 'OFFERING' OF THE BODY OF JESUS CHRIST 'ONCE' FOR ALL!" Ok Question: is Paul Speaking of "Practical" or "Positional" Sanctification Here in verse 10? Answer: He's 'Clearly' Speaking of Our "Positional" Sanctification Because He is 'Pointing' to the "Sacrifice" of the 'CROSS' Which You & I Had "Nothing" to Do With! So, in verse 14, Paul Uses the "PRESENT 'POSSESSIVE' TENSE" when 'speaking' of Our Sanctification, and 'If' You Can Grab "Hold" of This One 'Truth' I Guarantee that it Will "Transform Your Christian Life!" So My 'Word' today Dear One is this: 'Realize' the Perfection of Your "Eternal Position" In CHRIST JESUS, and 'Live' Your Daily Life in Suitable 'Congruity' to "Who" You Truly 'Are' In "HIM!!!" Blessings to All, and Shalom...
