Session 02 New Testament Overview - Hebrews: The Bridge Between the Old and ...John Brooks
Session 02 New Testament Survey Class
Hebrews: The Bridge Between the Old and the New
Based on material from:
Capital Hill Baptist Church
525 A Street, NE
Washington, DC 20002
Let's look today at the attitude of Christ toward sin in three ways:
Toward sin which has separated man from God.
Toward sin which will result in eternal damnation.
And toward sin which nailed Christ to the cross.
Many, when trying to understand Christ tend to look only at His life on this earth.
However, to truly understand the attitude of Christ one must go back much farther.
Christ, as Deity, is eternal.

In Jude 17-23 Jude shifts from piling up examples of false teachers from the Old Testament to a series of practical exhortations that flow from apostolic instruction. He preserves for us what may well have been part of the apostolic catechism for the first generation of Christ-followers. In these instructions Jude exhorts the believer to deal with 3 different groups of people: scoffers who are "devoid of the Spirit", believers who have come under the influence of scoffers and believers who are so entrenched in false teaching that they need rescue and pose some real spiritual risk for the rescuer. In all of this Jude emphasizes Jesus' call to rescue straying sheep, leaving the 99 safely behind and pursuing the 1.

Homily: The Solemnity of the Most Holy Trinity Sunday 2024.docxJames Knipper
Countless volumes have been written trying to explain the mystery of three persons in one true God, leaving us to resort to metaphors such as the three-leaf clover to try to comprehend the Divinity. Many of us grew up with the quintessential pyramidal Trinity structure of God at the top and Son and Spirit in opposite corners. But what if we looked at this ‘mystery’ from a different perspective? What if we shifted our language of God as a being towards the concept of God as love? What if we focused more on the relationship within the Trinity versus the persons of the Trinity? What if stopped looking at God as a noun…and instead considered God as a verb? Check it out…
The Book of Joshua is the sixth book in the Hebrew Bible and the Old Testament, and is the first book of the Deuteronomistic history, the story of Israel from the conquest of Canaan to the Babylonian exile.

1. THE HUMANITY OF JESUS
Mark 14:32-16:8
Easter Sunday
April 20, 2014
FIRST BAPTIST CHURCH
JACKSON, MISSISSIPPI
USA
2. FBCJ April Memory Verse
Galatians 2:20 NIV
I have been crucified with Christ and I no longer live,
but Christ lives in me. The life I now live in the body, I
live by faith in the Son of God, who loved me and gave
himself for me.
3. CLASS 2014 MEMORY VERSE
1 Corinthians 10:31 NIV
So whether you eat or drink or whatever you do, do it
all for the glory of God.
4. What’s the number one thing?
http://ts4.mm.bing.net/th?id=HN.608004121792417659&pid=1.7
5. QUESTIONS FOR TODAY’S LESSON
1. How can Jesus be God and also man while on
earth?
2. Why is the humanity of Jesus important?
3. Was Jesus capable of sinning while on earth?
4. What was the relationship of God and Jesus
while he was on earth?
5. What was the proof that Jesus’ life and death
were an acceptable sacrifice for our sins?
6. God’s Word
• Every detail fits and prophecy fulfilled
• Like a Puzzle – the more pieces you put
together, the clearer the picture becomes
• Imagine the thrill of the apostles and early
believers (Jewish) of discovering fulfilled
prophecy
• Holy Spirit instructed and directed
7. Easter begins with Christmas!
Luke 2:8-11 NIV
8 And there were shepherds living out in the fields
nearby, keeping watch over their flocks at night.
9 An angel of the Lord appeared to them, and the
glory of the Lord shone around them, and they
were terrified. 10 But the angel said to them, “Do
not be afraid. I bring you good news that will cause
great joy for all the people. 11 Today in the town of
David a Savior has been born to you; he is the
Messiah, the Lord.
8. Angels announce the dual nature of
Jesus (Human & GOD))
• “…a Savior has been born…”
– Natural birth
– Savior in human form
• “…he is the Messiah, the Lord.”
– He is God
– He is the Lord
9. Fully Human and Fully God
• This is confusing – the math does not work
for human minds
• Not 50/50 or alternating
– Gnosticism in 1 John5:6
• 100% Human and 100% God
• Council of Chalcedon in 451 AD
– In perfect unity, without mixture, separation,
confusion or division
• Not even going to scratch the surface today!
10. Theological Term = Incarnation
God becoming human
• Latin term “incarnito” = taking on flesh.
• Term surfaced about 300 AD.
• Definition: Refers to God in one of the modes
of His existence as Trinity, without any way
ceasing to be God, has revealed Himself to
humanity by becoming human.
11. Incarnation
John 1:14 NIV
14 The Word became flesh and made his dwelling
among us. We have seen his glory, the glory of the
one and only Son, who came from the Father, full of
grace and truth.
• As the ‘God-man’, He mediates God to humans
• As the ‘man-God’, He represents Humans to God
12. The Deity of Jesus
• Present at creation
John 1:1-3 NIV
1 In the beginning was the Word, and the Word
was with God, and the Word was God. 2 He was
with God in the beginning. 3 Through him all
things were made; without him nothing was
made that has been made.
13. The Deity of Jesus
• Only “Begotten” Son – Unique; one and only
John 3:16 NIV
16 For God so loved the world that he gave his one
and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not
perish but have eternal life.
Isaiah 9:6a NIV
6a For to us a child is born, to us a son is given,
14. The Deity of Jesus
• Everything in His hands
John 3:35-36 NIV
35 The Father loves the Son and has placed
everything in his hands. 36 Whoever believes in
the Son has eternal life, but whoever rejects the
Son will not see life, for God’s wrath remains on
them.
15. Relationship of God and Jesus
While On Earth
• Subordinate (not inferior relationship)
– Under the authority and leadership
• Jesus was equal in essence, but different in role and
function
John 14:28 NIV
28 ….for the Father is greater than I.
Matthew 24:36 NIV
36 But about that day or hour no one knows, not even the
angels in heaven, nor the Son, but only the Father.
16. Jesus as God’s Son on Earth
• Never lost His deity – Never stopped being God
• He emptied himself of His prerogatives:
– His Glory and His privileges
Philippians 2:6
6 Who, being in very nature God, did not consider equality
with God something to be used to his own advantage;
7 rather, he made himself nothing by taking the very
nature of a servant, being made in human likeness. 8 And
being found in appearance as a man, he humbled himself
by becoming obedient to death — even death on a cross!
17. “God things” Jesus did on earth
• Forgave sins – Matthew 9:6
• Raised the dead – John 11:43-44
• Healing – John 9:6-7
• Controlled nature: walk on water, calm
storms, created food, water to wine
• Read minds
• Knew Future
• Potential to call down angels
18. “ALL AUTHORITY”
• “All authority” came after His Resurrection
Matthew 28:16-18 NIV
16 Then the eleven disciples went to Galilee, to
the mountain where Jesus had told them to go.
17 When they saw him, they worshiped him; but
some doubted. 18 Then Jesus came to them and
said, “All authority in heaven and on earth has
been given to me.”
19. Jesus as Fully Human
• Physical birth, growth and development
• Fatigue – John 4:6
• Sleep – Matthew 8:24
• Food (eat) & body functions– Matthew 4:2
• Emotions
– Joy – John 15:11
– Sorrow (wept) – Matthew 26:37
– Loneliness & Abandonment – Matt 26:38; Mark 15:34
• Experienced death – Mark 15:37
21. Jesus and Temptation
Matthew 4:1-3 NIV
1 Then Jesus was led by the Spirit into the
wilderness to be tempted by the devil. 2 After
fasting forty days and forty nights, he was
hungry. 3 The tempter came to him and said, …
22. Jesus and Temptation
Hebrews 4:15 NIV
15 For we do not have a high priest who is unable
to empathize with our weaknesses, but we have
one who has been tempted in every way, just as
we are —yet he did not sin.
23. Jesus and Temptation
• We (humans) are born with a “sin nature” that
was inherited from Adam (2 earthly parents)
• Sin nature = inward desire or inclination for sin
Romans 5:12 NIV
12 Therefore, just as sin entered the world
through one man, and death through sin, and in
this way death came to all people, because all
sinned —
24. Jesus and Temptation
• Jesus was not born with a “sin nature”
– (1 earthly parent and 1 heavenly parent)
• Jesus had the nature of Adam before sinning
– Called the “Second or last Adam”
• Jesus had the: (1) CHOICE & (2) ABILITY to sin
25. THE TEMPTATION OF JESUS
• In order for us to be saved, Jesus had to
succeed where Adam failed.
• Where Adam as a man broke God’s covenant,
Jesus as a man had to keep God’s covenant if
we were to be redeemed.
• Like Adam, Jesus was tempted to disbelieve
God’s Word.
• Jesus never gave in to Satan’s lies.
27. WHY IS THE HUMANITY OF CHRIST
IMPORTANT?
1. To reveal God to us – Jesus is the revealed reality of God
John 1:18 NIV
18 No one has ever seen God, but the one and only Son, who is
himself God and is in closest relationship with the Father, has
made him known.
John 14:6-7 NIV
6 Jesus answered, “I am the way and the truth and the life. No
one comes to the Father except through me. 7 If you really
know me, you will know my Father as well. From now on, you
do know him and have seen him.”
28. WHY IS THE HUMANITY OF CHRIST
IMPORTANT?
2. Christ’s humanity fits Him to be our Redeemer-
tempted but did not sin.
Hebrews 2:17-18 NIV
17 For this reason he had to be made like them, fully
human in every way, in order that he might become
a merciful and faithful high priest in service to God,
and that he might make atonement for the sins of
the people. 18 Because he himself suffered when he
was tempted, he is able to help those who are
being tempted.
29. WHY IS THE HUMANITY OF CHRIST
IMPORTANT?
3. Christ’s humanity enabled Him to die as our
sacrifice.
Hebrews 2:9 NIV
9 But we do see Jesus, who was made lower than
the angels for a little while, now crowned with
glory and honor because he suffered death, so
that by the grace of God he might taste death
for everyone.
30. WHY IS THE HUMANITY OF CHRIST
IMPORTANT?
4. Christ’s humanity fits Him to be our High
Priest and reconcile us to God.
Hebrews 2:17 NIV
17 For this reason he had to be made like them,
fully human in every way, in order that he might
become a merciful and faithful high priest in
service to God, and that he might make
atonement for the sins of the people.
31. WHY IS THE HUMANITY OF CHRIST
IMPORTANT?
5. The sacrifice of human blood from a sinless human was
required to cover the sins of all.
Hebrews 9:22 NIV
22 In fact, the law requires that nearly everything be cleansed
with blood, and without the shedding of blood there is no
forgiveness.
Leviticus 17:11 NIV
11 For the life of a creature is in the blood, and I have given it
to you to make atonement for yourselves on the altar; it is the
blood that makes atonement for one’s life.
32. WHY IS THE HUMANITY OF CHRIST
IMPORTANT?
6. Christ’s humanity links Him with David and thus the
throne of Israel.
Matthew 1:1 NIV
1 This is the genealogy of Jesus the Messiah the son of David,
the son of Abraham: (Physically related through Mary)
Luke 1:32-33 NIV
32 … The Lord God will give him the throne of his father David,
33 and he will reign over Jacob’s descendants forever; his
kingdom will never end.” (Legally related through Joseph)
33. WHY IS THE HUMANITY OF CHRIST
IMPORTANT?
7. Christ’s humanity enables Him to fulfill scripture.
Isaiah 7:14 NIV
14 Therefore the Lord himself will give you a sign:
The virgin will conceive and give birth to a son, and
will call him Immanuel
• Prophecy about Jesus: 330 prophecies
- Over 100 fulfilled in His first coming
34. Mathematical Analysis
Principles of Probability
Reference: Peter Stoner in Science Speaks
(Moody Press 1963)
Wanted to demonstrate that coincidence is
ruled out by the science of probability
Applied science of probability for 8 prophecies
related to Jesus’ birth
35. Mathematical Analysis
Principles of Probability
• What is the chance that any man might have
lived down to the present time and fulfilled all
eight prophecies?
• 1 in 10¹⁷
• 1 in 100,000,000,000,000,000
36. How many is 10¹⁷?
Silver Dollars Example
• Take 10¹⁷ Silver Dollars and lay them flat on
the state of Texas
• They will cover the state 2 feet deep
• Now, mark one (1) one of these coins and stir
the whole mass
• Blindfold a man, and tell him he can travel the
state and pick up one (1) coin and it must be
the marked coin.
37. How many is 10¹⁷?
Silver Dollars Example
• What chance would the man have of picking
up the marked coin?
• This is the same chance that the prophets
would have had of writing these 8 prophecies
and have them all come true in any one man,
from their day to the present time, providing
they wrote them in their own wisdom.
38. THE RESURRECTION OF CHRIST
What is the proof that Jesus’ life and death were
acceptable to God?
• Our Lord’s resurrection is His vindication!
• If Jesus had stayed dead, it would have proven
that death had a rightful claim over Him.
• By defeating the power of death, Jesus
rendered it powerless over His people.
39. VICTORY IN RESURRECTION
• Because Christ was raised from the dead, we will
be also!
• At our resurrection (Jesus’ 2nd coming), our spirits
will be reunited with perfected bodies, and we
will forever experience the glorified state that the
Lord intended for us from the very beginning!
