Ben Grisez - Good Friday - Matthew 26.6-13

Ben Grisez - Hebrews 8:1-13 A New Covenant
Calvary Chapel Sydney
Through Jesus Christ God established a new covenant and rendered the old covenant obsolete as a means of finding favour with God. With Jesus as our High Priest seated and ministering in heaven, by faith in Him we have forgiveness of sin, a relationship with God, and our lawless deeds God remembers no more. This new covenant can only be received by those who are born again, new creations by God's grace.

Ben Grisez - Hebrews 7:1-28 Christ's Unchangeable Priesthood

By an oath God declared Jesus as high priest according to the order of Melchizedek and gave Him an unchangeable priesthood.

Ben Grisez - Luke 20:45-21:4 - The Giving God
Calvary Chapel Sydney
Jesus contrasted the scribes who sought what they could gain with a poor widow who gave God all. In light of God giving Himself for us, we ought to first give ourselves to God as living sacrifices for His glory. It is more blessed to give than to receive.

Ben Grisez - Hosea 6:1-11 Mercy and Sacrifice
Calvary Chapel Sydney
Whilst Israel placed great emphasis on offering sacrifices to God, their sin and lack of mercy revealed they did not know Him. Obedience is better than sacrifice, yet the sacrifices of a broken heart God will not despise. God has shown us mercy continually, even by sending His Son Jesus Christ as a sacrifice for sin so we can be saved.

Ben Grisez - Hosea 4:11-5:15 Open To God
Calvary Chapel Sydney
God's people thought their sacrifices made them acceptable before God, but because they were in sin without repentance He withdrew Himself from them. God knew in their affliction they would seek Him, and He would patiently wait for them to seek Him in repentance. Jesus stands at the door and knocks, and may we quickly rise and open our hearts to Him
