We are diving into a new study in the book of Hebrews. Now we don’t actually know the author of this book, many believe it was Paul, but the writing style is a little different than his other writings. Some think it could Barnabas and there are other possible authors, but this book focusses on the deity of Jesus, and how He is above every created being. He is our High Priest and is sitting at the right hand of the Father interceding and overseeing the New Covenant of which He alone established. In our study this morning, we will look at how the role of a prophet has changed.

In this study we will look at three points.

1: Yes or no, nothing else needed

2: The power and need of prayer

3: Supporting one another in truth and love

We will see how God does not overlook the sin of the rich oppressors in the world and justice will come in His timing. We will also look at how we as believers are to persevere, and walk in faith.

In this study we will look at the fact that as believers, it is not my will but His will that we should be seeking to follow.

We will be looking at our actions or works. Are they done through wisdom that comes with humility and meekness, or are they from our fleshly nature which is full of bitterness and pride?

We are going to look at one of the smallest parts of our being, but in some ways the most dangerous. The untamed tongue.

We will be looking at faith and works which flow out from a merciful heart. So I begin this message with a question. Is it faith vs. works or faith with works? I believe we can answer this question as we go through this study.

We will look at how we are to look at and receive those in the body of Christ. We will also look at mercy and being merciful.
