A study from Vince Baker Ministries
What does it mean to be in covenant with God?
Abraham’s story gives the promises a history. Jeremiah speaks to a people who had broken covenant and promises forgiveness and God’s law written on the heart. Hebrews connects that promise to Jesus as mediator. Follow the setting and recipient of each passage before drawing an application for your own life.
What Jesus Accomplished as Mediator
This selection turns often to Jesus, His blood, and what people receive through Him. Hebrews describes Christ entering by His own blood and cleansing the conscience for service. Trace the verbs in the passage and consider how they change the way you approach God in prayer.
Put one quote into practice
Choose one passage and write down who makes the promise, whom it addresses, and what response the text calls for. Give thanks for one feature of God’s character you see there. Carry that gratitude into one commitment you need to keep this week.
