Read Hebrews 10:1-18
“We all drive wrecked cars we want to make look good… They are still wrecked!" ~Asil Treblig
Why Christ came:
1. The Old Testament sacrifices were insufficient. (vv.1-4)

· Restricted results.
What Christ did:
2. Christ offered an all sufficient sacrifice. (vv.5-10)
· He became the God-man.
· He was obedient unto death.
· He made us holy.
Where Christ is:
3. Seated at the right hand of God. (vv.11-18)
· He rested from His work.
· We can now rest in His work.
