3381 | Is Jesus Gods son? | Heb 1:5 | Emmaus | 71073 | ||
Jim, While I understand the emphasis on the blood scarifices of the OT and of Jesus, I am rather sceptical of any emphasis on the "blood type" issue, which is purely speculative. The Father does not and did not have a "blood type" to give to the Son Incarnate since the Father is spirit. In a sense all blood types come from God since God created man and his blood with all its types. Emmaus |

3382 | Is Jesus Gods son? | Heb 1:5 | Emmaus | 71092 | ||
Pastor Glenn, To have a human nature is not the same thing as having a fallen human nature. The Divine Son took on a sinless human nature, not a fallen human nature. Truly He was born of the seed of a woman, Gen 3:15, but not the seed of a man, rather by the power of the Holy Spirit. I will resist the temptation to get into the whole concept of the Immaculate Conception of Mary as it may apply here, having already run that guantlet before. :-) The corrupted or sinful human nature tends toward sin even without temptation, whereas even Adam and Eve in the sinless state of their human natures did not tend naturally toward sin, but were subject to temptation. It was giving into that temptation that corrupted their previously undefiled human nature. In the same manner Jesus was subject to temptation but did not give in to it. Emmaus |

perrin, "what did Jesus Christ do as a mediator between man and God?" Rom 3:25 whom God displayed publicly as a propitiation in His blood through faith. This was to demonstrate His righteousness, because in the forbearance of God He passed over the sins previously committed; Heb 2:17 Therefore, He had to be made like His brethren in all things, so that He might become a merciful and faithful high priest in things pertaining to God, to make propitiation for the sins of the people. 1 John 2:2 and He Himself is the propitiation for our sins; and not for ours only, but also for those of the whole world. 1 John 4:10 In this is love, not that we loved God, but that He loved us and sent His Son to be the propitiation for our sins.

3385 | Explain Rest in ver 1 to 12 | Heb 4:8 | Emmaus | 83909 | ||
eaglei35, Think of "rest" as in "Rest in Peace" that is rest in the Peace of Christ, who said "My peace I give you" and "abide in me." This passage, Hebrews 3:1 through 4:12 refers back to the children of Israel in the desert, who had seen God's miracles which redeemed them from slavery in Egypt and yet they still rebelled, disobeyed and did not believe in His promise. God did not allow that generation to cross the Jordan and enter into His rest in the Promised Land. See Numbers 12;7; Numbers 14:1-35; Psalm 95:11; Genesis 2:2; Psalm 95:11; Psalm 95:7-8. They are all being reference in this pasage of Hebrews 3:1 through 4:12. Jesus Christ is our Sabbath and our rest. The word sabbath means rest. After Jesus had completed his work of salvation on Good Friday, he "rested" in the tomb on the Sabbath. We rest in Him and his salvific work on the cross. Hebrews 4:1 says to us in warning, using the Israelites as an example: "Therefore, while the promise of entering into his rest remains, let us fear lest any of you be judged to have failed to reach it."

I believe Heb 4:12-13 is referring to not just to the written word of God, but in a deeper sense to Jesus himself,the living Word of God. " No creature is concealed from Him...to whom we must render an account. See John 1:1 and Rev 1:6. The written Word comes forth from the Living Word, Jesus. |

3387 | EXPLAIN HEBREWS 4:12 WHAT DOES IT MEAN? | Heb 4:12 | Emmaus | 32667 | ||
ELILIZ, The Greek word translated as "word" is "logos," the same word used to describe Jesus in John 1. He is the word of God. This is made clear in verse 13 where the personal pronoun he is used indicating a person. The written word can not analyse the thoughts and intentions of our hearts. That requires an all knowing person. Which does not mean that you cannot also say that verse 12 can also apply to scripture. But it does seem to indicate that the primary meaning is Jesus. Emmaus. |

3391 | Cup Passed? | Heb 4:15 | Emmaus | 118081 | ||
angelsm, "Jesus, knowing that He was the sacrifice, asked if the cup could be passed from Him......why?" Becasue as a true man He dreaded death and suffereing just as we do. he did not suppress his human emotions with his divine will. Rather "he was tempted like us in all thing, but was without sin." (Hebrews 2:18; 4:15) Jesus Himself taught us to pray to the Father, "lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil. Sometimes "lead us not into tempatation is translated as "put us not to the test.." in mathew 6:13. This was also Satan's last and most powerful temptation of Jesus, "the hour of darkness."(Luke 22:53) You will recall that after the temptation in the desert at the beginning of Jesus' ministry, the "the devil departed from him until an opportune time."(Luke 4:13). But Jesus submits Himself to the will of the Father does not take "the cup" away, but sends and angels to "strengthen Him." (Luke 22:42-42) Emmaus |

3392 | CHRISTIAN SUFFERING | Heb 5:8 | Emmaus | 120460 | ||
Immortal, Heb 5:8 Although He was a Son, He learned obedience from the things which He suffered. Rom 8:16-18 The Spirit Himself testifies with our spirit that we are children of God, and if children, heirs also, heirs of God and fellow heirs with Christ, if indeed we suffer with Him so that we may also be glorified with Him. For I consider that the sufferings of this present time are not worthy to be compared with the glory that is to be revealed to us. Emmaus |

3393 | How does being under the law prepare us? | Heb 5:11 | Emmaus | 127020 | ||
In ancient times, a son, before he came of age, was placed under the authority of a tutor who taught him and discilined him until he was ready to take a place of authority in the family. This is reflected somewhat I think in statements about Jesus in Luke 2:51-52 and Hebrews 5:11. He learned obedience by the things He suffered. Even in the military you are first taught to obey before you are ever given authority to command obedience. Emmaus |

Rosatiffany, Heb 6:1 "Therefore leaving the elementary teaching about the Christ, let us press on to maturity, not laying again a foundation of repentance from dead works and of faith toward God, Heb 6:2 of instruction about washings and laying on of hands, and the resurrectionn of the dead and eternal judgment." Washings is baptism, laying on of hands is in Acts refers the gift of the Holy Spirit being called down or the ordaining of ministers by the Apostles. The resurrection of the dead in Christ. In other words, let's move on from the basics that beginnig disciples are taught and move into the deeper waters of the mystery of salvation in Christ Jesus. Which is where Hebrews is headed after this passage. Emmaus |

See Hebrews 9:14 and Hebrews 9:10; Mark 7:4; Acts 6:6; 8:17; 13:3;19:6 "Instruction about baptisms: not simply about Christian baptism but about the difference between it and similar Jewish rites, such as proselyte baptism, John's baptism, and the washings of the Qumran sectaries. Laying on of hands: in Acts 8:17; 19:6 this rite effects the infusion of the holy Spirit; in Acts 6:6; 13:3; 1 Tim 4:14; 5:22; 2 Tim 1:6 it is a means of conferring some ministry or mission in the early Christian community."

Mommapbs, Avoiding the hypocritical works of the Pharisees. Matt 23:23 "Woe to you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites!

3397 | What is a repentance from dead works? | Heb 6:1 | Emmaus | 133548 | ||
Mommapbs, I think this is something we must all gard against in many ways. We tend not to think about sins of omission as much as we do trying to avoid sins of comission. Like the rich man, we thing we are doing fine if we do not abuse the beggar at our door, but we still sin by ignoring his need. The rich man never bothered Lazaraus. Ever heard the phrase, "he won't hurt you, but he won't help you either" used to describe someone? Makes me think of Jesus says, "because you are neither hot nor cold, I will spew you out." |

Laua, The laying on of hands refers to two things in the New Testament: the infusion of the Holy Spirit by laying on of hands, Acts 19:5-6; Acts 8:14-17; 2 Cor 1:21-22; Eph 1:13; Heb 6:2; and ordination to ministry in the Church.

3400 | "Laying on of Hands"? Heb. 6:1-2 | Heb 6:2 | Emmaus | 137950 | ||
beckyleigh, Here is one perspective on your question "The Old Testament suggests and the New Covenant reveals the creative action of the Son and the Spirit,(Cf. Ps 33:6; 104:30; Gen 1:2-3) inseparably one with that of the Father. This creative co-operation is clearly affirmed in the Church's rule of faith: "There exists but one God. . . he is the Father, God, the Creator, the author, the giver of order. He made all things by himself, that is, by his Word and by his Wisdom", "by the Son and the Spirit" who, so to speak, are "his hands".(St. Irenaeus, Adv. haeres. 2,30,9; 4,20,I: PG 7/1,822,1032.) Creation is the common work of the Holy Trinity. " "The hand ( as a symbol of the Holy Spirit). Jesus heals the sick and blesses little children by laying hands on them.(Mk 6:5; 8:23; 10:16) In his name the apostles will do the same. (Cf. Mk 16:18; Acts 5:12; 14:3) Even more pointedly, it is by the Apostles' imposition of hands that the Holy Spirit is given. (Cf. Acts 8:17-19; 13:3; 19:6) The Letter to the Hebrews lists the imposition of hands among the "fundamental elements" of its teaching. (Cf. Heb 6:2) The Church has kept this sign of the all-powerful outpouring of the Holy Spirit in its sacramental epicleses." "From that time on the apostles, in fulfillment of Christ's will, imparted to the newly baptized by the laying on of hands the gift of the Spirit that completes the grace of Baptism. For this reason in the Letter to the Hebrews the doctrine concerning Baptism and the laying on of hands is listed among the first elements of Christian instruction. The imposition of hands is rightly recognized by the Catholic tradition as the origin of the sacrament of Confirmation, which in a certain way perpetuates the grace of Pentecost in the Church."(cf. Acts 8:15-17; 19:5-6; Heb 6:2) "The essential rite of the sacrament follows. In the Latin rite, "the sacrament of Confirmation is conferred through the anointing with chrism on the forehead, which is done by the laying on of the hand, and through the words: 'Accipe signaculum doni Spiritus Sancti' [Be sealed with the Gift of the Holy Spirit.]." In the Eastern Churches of Byzantine rite, after a prayer of epiclesis, the more significant parts of the body are anointed with myron: forehead, eyes, nose, ears, lips, chest, back, hands, and feet. Each anointing is accompanied by the formula SfragiV dwreaV PneumatoV Ā¢Agiou (Signaculum doni Spiritus Sancti): "the seal of the gift of the Holy Spirit."" "The word order in Roman antiquity designated an established civil body, especially a governing body. Ordinatio means incorporation into an ordo. In the Church there are established bodies which Tradition, not without a basis in Sacred Scripture,(Cf. Heb 5:6; 7:11; Ps 110:4) has since ancient times called taxeis (Greek) or ordines. And so the liturgy speaks of the ordo episcoporum, the ordo presbyterorum, the ordo diaconorum,. . . . " "Integration into one of these bodies in the Church was accomplished by a rite called ordinatio, a religious and liturgical act which was a consecration, a blessing or a sacrament. Today the word "ordination" is reserved for the sacramental act which integrates a man into the order of bishops, presbyters, or deacons, and goes beyond a simple election, designation, delegation, or institution by the community, for it confers a gift of the Holy Spirit that permits the exercise of a "sacred power" (sacra potestas) which can come only from Christ himself through his Church. Ordination is also called consecratio, for it is a setting apart and an investiture by Christ himself for his Church. The laying on of hands by the bishop, with the consecratory prayer, constitutes the visible sign of this ordination." Excerpts from The Catechism of the Catholic Church Emmaus |
