Hebrews 3
Welcome to Hebrews 3! Verse one reads, "Therefore, holy brothers, who share in the heavenly calling, fix your thoughts on Jesus, the apostle and high priest whom we confess." (NIV) In this verse, what do you think the word apostle means? Second, if Jesus is our perfect high priest, in what ways is he also a perfect apostle?

Hebrews 2
Welcome to Hebrews chapter two!
In Hebrews chapter 2 it says that Jesus was made a little lower than the angels (vs 7 & 9). Doesn't that contradict what we learned in Chapter 1? What am I missing?
It's a good question...any opinions before I answer?

Hebrews 1
Welcome to our new series, "Faithful Words Fulfilled". This series will take us through the book of Hebrews. This New Testament book uses more material from the Old Testament than any other, hence the title of our series. You'll notice in our reading plan (available at www.fourseasonschurch.org) that there is some extra credit reading each week. If you tackle these assignments, you will have read through the book of Leviticus in addition to Hebrews when we are finished. Why Leviticus? Because Hebrews seeks to present Christ as superior to the old Levitical sacrificial system. Reading one will certainly help you understand the other. There is a wealth of wonderful insights in Hebrews and I'm excited to be studying it together. May God bless us all as we spend time in His Word.

Thessalonian Thinking
We did not have a formal reading plan for this week. Instead we are simply reading through I Thessalonians. This short letter has some great advice for churches. What stands out to you?
