                                                                             TWO MOUNTAINS                                                              7-22-18
                                                                                  Hebrews 12:18-29
I.      Mount Sinai                                                                                              Hebrews 12:18-22, Exodus 19:16
                                                                                                                        Deuteronomy 4:11-13                                        
        A.  The Israelites thought  it was terrifying.  Verse 12:20 is quoted from Deuteronomy 5:23-24
Deuteronomy 5:23-24  (NKJV)  ²³ “So it was, when you heard the voice from the midst of the darkness, while the mountain was burning with fire, that you came near to me, all the heads of your tribes and your elders. ²⁴ And you said: ‘Surely the Lord our God has shown us His glory and His greatness, and we have heard His voice from the midst of the fire. We have seen this day that God speaks with man; yet he still lives.”
Exodus 19:12-13  (NKJV) ¹² You shall set bounds for the people all around, saying, ‘Take heed to yourselves that you do not go up to the mountain or touch its base. Whoever touches the mountain shall surely be put to death. ¹³ Not a hand shall touch him, but he shall surely be stoned or shot with an arrow; whether man or beast, he shall not live.’ When the trumpet sounds long, they shall come near the mountain.”
Exodus 19:19  (NKJV) ¹⁹ And when the blast of the trumpet sounded long and became louder and louder, Moses spoke, and God answered him by voice.
 
        B.  Even Moses was terrified:  Verse 12:20 was quoted from Deuteronomy 9:19
Deuteronomy 9:19  (NKJV) ¹⁹ For I was afraid of the anger and hot displeasure with which the Lordwas angry with you, to destroy you. But the Lord listened to me at that time also.
 
II.    Mount Zion                                                                                                Hebrews 12:23-29
Galatians 3:10-12  (NKJV)  ¹⁰ For as many as are of the works of the law are under the curse; for it is written, “Cursed is everyone who does not continue in all things which are written in the book of the law, to do them.” ¹¹ But that no one is ^[a]justified by the law in the sight of God is evident, for “the just shall live by faith.” ¹² Yet the law is not of faith, but “the man who does them shall live by them.”
 
         A.  Zion                                                                                                     Isaiah 46:13
Psalm 132:13-14  (NKJV) ¹³ For the Lord has chosen Zion; He has desired it for His ^[a]dwelling place:
¹⁴ “This is My resting place forever; Here I will dwell, for I have desired it.
Zechariah 2:10  (NKJV) ¹⁰ “Sing and rejoice, O daughter of Zion! For behold, I am coming and I will dwell in your midst,” says the Lord.
        B.  Heavenly City                                                                                        Revelation 21:1-22:5
Revelation 21:1 -2; 10 (NKJV)  Now I saw a new heaven and a new earth, for the first heaven and the first earth had passed away. Also there was no more sea. ² Then I, ^[a]John, saw the holy city, New Jerusalem, coming down out of heaven from God, prepared as a bride adorned for her husband. ¹⁰ And he carried me away in the Spirit to a great and high mountain, and showed me the ^[a]great city, the ^[b]holy Jerusalem, descending out of heaven from God,
 
III.   Warnings                                                                                                   Hebrews 12:25
        A.  Verse 27 is a quote from Haggai 2:6
Haggai 2:6  (NKJV) ⁶ “For thus says the Lord of hosts: ‘Once more (it is a little while) I will shake heaven and earth, the sea and dry land;
2 Peter 3:10-13  (NKJV) ¹⁰ But the day of the Lord will come as a thief in the night, in which the heavens will pass away with a great noise, and the elements will melt with fervent heat; both the earth and the works that are in it will be ^[a]burned up. ¹¹ Therefore, since all these things will be dissolved, what manner of persons ought you to be in holy conduct and godliness, ¹² looking for and hastening the coming of the day of God, because of which the heavens will be dissolved, being on fire, and the elements will melt with fervent heat? ¹³ Nevertheless we, according to His promise, look for new heavens and a new earth in which righteousness dwells.
 
        B.  Hope                                                                                                    I Peter 1:3-5, I John 4:8

THE HARVEST                                                     3-4-18
WHY WITNESS?                                                                                              Mark 16:15, 2 Corinthians 1:17
                                                                                                                        2 Timothy 4:1,2
1 Thessalonians 2:4  (NKJV) ⁴ But as we have been approved by God to be entrusted with the gospel, even so we speak, not as pleasing men, but God who tests our hearts.
 
GOD TELLS US TO                                                                                              Jeremiah 20:9, Acts 4:20
1 Corinthians 9:16  (NKJV) ¹⁶ For if I preach the gospel, I have nothing to boast of, for necessity is laid upon me; yes, woe is me if I do not preach the gospel!
Matthew 4:19  (NKJV)  ¹⁹ Then He said to them, “Follow Me, and I will make you fishers of men.”
 
FAITH BY HEARING THE WORD                                                                          Ephesians 1:13, Psalm 119:130
                                                                                                                                       1 Peter 1:23
Romans 10:17  (NKJV) ¹⁷ So then faith comes by hearing, and hearing by the word of God.
John 5:24 (NKJV) ²⁴ “Most assuredly, I say to you, he who hears My word and believes in Him who sent Me has everlasting life, and shall not come into judgment, but has passed from death into life.
 
IT GLORIFIES GOD WHEN WE WITNESS                                                              John 16:13,14
John 15:8  (NKJV) ⁸ By this My Father is glorified, that you bear much fruit; so you will be My disciples.
Acts 1:8  (NKJV) ⁸ But you shall receive power when the Holy Spirit has come upon you; and you shall be witnesses to Me in Jerusalem, and in all Judea and Samaria, and to the end of the earth.”
 
REWARDS FOR THOSE WHO WITNESS                                                               Daniel 12:3
Proverbs 11:30  (NKJV) ³⁰ The fruit of the righteous is a tree of life, And he who wins souls is wise.
1 Thessalonians 2:19  (NKJV) ¹⁹ For what is our hope, or joy, or crown of rejoicing? Is it not even you in the presence of our Lord Jesus Christ at His coming?
 
WHO SHOULD?                                                                                                 2 Corinthians 3:12
2 Corinthians 4:3-6  (NKJV) ³ But even if our gospel is veiled, it is veiled to those who are perishing, ⁴ whose minds the god of this age has blinded, who do not believe, lest the light of the gospel of the glory of Christ, who is the image of God, should shine on them. ⁵ For we do not preach ourselves, but Christ Jesus the Lord, and ourselves your bondservants for Jesus’ sake. ⁶ For it is the God who commanded light to shine out of darkness, who has shone in our hearts to give the light of the knowledge of the glory of God in the face of Jesus Christ.
 
THE GREAT COMMISSION                                                                                 Mark 16:15-18, Luke 24:46-48
Matthew 28:16  (NKJV) ¹⁶ Then the eleven disciples went away into Galilee, to the mountain which Jesus had appointed for them.
John 17:18  (NKJV) ¹⁸ As You sent Me into the world, I also have sent them into the world.
John 20:21 (NKJV) ²¹ So Jesus said to them again, “Peace to you! As the Father has sent Me, I also send you.”
Acts 1:8 (NKJV) ⁸ But you shall receive power when the Holy Spirit has come upon you; and you shall be witnesses to Me^[ in Jerusalem, and in all Judea and Samaria, and to the end of the earth.”
Isaiah 6:1- 8  (NKJV)  6 In the year that King Uzziah died, I saw the Lord sitting on a throne, high and lifted up, and the train of His robe filled the temple. ² Above it stood seraphim; each one had six wings: with two he covered his face, with two he covered his feet, and with two he flew. ³ And one cried to another and said: “Holy, holy, holy is the Lord of hosts;
The whole earth is full of His glory!” ⁴ And the posts of the door were shaken by the voice of him who cried out, and the house was filled with smoke. ⁵ So I said: “Woe is me, for I am undone! Because I am a man of unclean lips,
And I dwell in the midst of a people of unclean lips; For my eyes have seen the King, The Lord of hosts.” ⁶ Then one of the seraphim flew to me, having in his hand a live coal which he had taken with the tongs from the altar. ⁷ And he touched my mouth with it, and said: “Behold, this has touched your lips; Your iniquity is taken away, And your sin purged.” ⁸ Also I heard the voice of the Lord, saying: “Whom shall I send, And who will go for Us?” Then I said, “Here am I! Send me.”

WHY WITNESS?                                                                                              Mark 16:15, 2 Corinthians 1:17
                                                                                                                        2 Timothy 4:1,2
1 Thessalonians 2:4  (NKJV) ⁴ But as we have been approved by God to be entrusted with the gospel, even so we speak, not as pleasing men, but God who tests our hearts.
 
GOD TELLS US TO                                                                                              Jeremiah 20:9, Acts 4:20
1 Corinthians 9:16  (NKJV) ¹⁶ For if I preach the gospel, I have nothing to boast of, for necessity is laid upon me; yes, woe is me if I do not preach the gospel!
Matthew 4:19  (NKJV)  ¹⁹ Then He said to them, “Follow Me, and I will make you fishers of men.”
 
FAITH BY HEARING THE WORD                                                                          Ephesians 1:13, Psalm 119:130
                                                                                                                                       1 Peter 1:23
Romans 10:17  (NKJV) ¹⁷ So then faith comes by hearing, and hearing by the word of God.
John 5:24 (NKJV) ²⁴ “Most assuredly, I say to you, he who hears My word and believes in Him who sent Me has everlasting life, and shall not come into judgment, but has passed from death into life.
 
IT GLORIFIES GOD WHEN WE WITNESS                                                              John 16:13,14
John 15:8  (NKJV) ⁸ By this My Father is glorified, that you bear much fruit; so you will be My disciples.
Acts 1:8  (NKJV) ⁸ But you shall receive power when the Holy Spirit has come upon you; and you shall be witnesses to Me in Jerusalem, and in all Judea and Samaria, and to the end of the earth.”
 
REWARDS FOR THOSE WHO WITNESS                                                               Daniel 12:3
Proverbs 11:30  (NKJV) ³⁰ The fruit of the righteous is a tree of life, And he who wins souls is wise.
1 Thessalonians 2:19  (NKJV) ¹⁹ For what is our hope, or joy, or crown of rejoicing? Is it not even you in the presence of our Lord Jesus Christ at His coming?
 
WHO SHOULD?                                                                                                 2 Corinthians 3:12
2 Corinthians 4:3-6  (NKJV) ³ But even if our gospel is veiled, it is veiled to those who are perishing, ⁴ whose minds the god of this age has blinded, who do not believe, lest the light of the gospel of the glory of Christ, who is the image of God, should shine on them. ⁵ For we do not preach ourselves, but Christ Jesus the Lord, and ourselves your bondservants for Jesus’ sake. ⁶ For it is the God who commanded light to shine out of darkness, who has shone in our hearts to give the light of the knowledge of the glory of God in the face of Jesus Christ.
 
THE GREAT COMMISSION                                                                                 Mark 16:15-18, Luke 24:46-48
Matthew 28:16  (NKJV) ¹⁶ Then the eleven disciples went away into Galilee, to the mountain which Jesus had appointed for them.
John 17:18  (NKJV) ¹⁸ As You sent Me into the world, I also have sent them into the world.
John 20:21 (NKJV) ²¹ So Jesus said to them again, “Peace to you! As the Father has sent Me, I also send you.”
Acts 1:8 (NKJV) ⁸ But you shall receive power when the Holy Spirit has come upon you; and you shall be witnesses to Me^[ in Jerusalem, and in all Judea and Samaria, and to the end of the earth.”
Isaiah 6:1- 8  (NKJV)  6 In the year that King Uzziah died, I saw the Lord sitting on a throne, high and lifted up, and the train of His robe filled the temple. ² Above it stood seraphim; each one had six wings: with two he covered his face, with two he covered his feet, and with two he flew. ³ And one cried to another and said: “Holy, holy, holy is the Lord of hosts;
The whole earth is full of His glory!” ⁴ And the posts of the door were shaken by the voice of him who cried out, and the house was filled with smoke. ⁵ So I said: “Woe is me, for I am undone! Because I am a man of unclean lips,
And I dwell in the midst of a people of unclean lips; For my eyes have seen the King, The Lord of hosts.” ⁶ Then one of the seraphim flew to me, having in his hand a live coal which he had taken with the tongs from the altar. ⁷ And he touched my mouth with it, and said: “Behold, this has touched your lips; Your iniquity is taken away, And your sin purged.” ⁸ Also I heard the voice of the Lord, saying: “Whom shall I send, And who will go for Us?” Then I said, “Here am I! Send me.”

STILL BETTER THAN. . . 1-28-18

JESUS SUPERIOR TO:



Father's and Prophets

Hebrews 1:1-2 (NKJV) 1 God, who at various times and in various ways spoke in time past to the fathers by the prophets, 2 has in these last days spoken to us by His Son, whom He has appointed heir of all things, through whom also He made the worlds;



Angels

Hebrews 1:4 (NKJV) 4 having become so much better than the angels, as He has by inheritance obtained a more excellent name than they.





Moses



Hebrews 3:3 (NKJV) 3 For this One has been counted worthy of more glory than Moses, inasmuch as He who built the house has more honor than the house.



Better Than Rest



Hebrews 4:1 (NKJV) Therefore, since a promise remains of entering His rest, let us fear lest any of you seem to have come short of it. 9 There remains therefore a rest for the people of God. 10 For he who has entered His rest has himself also ceased from his works as God did from His.







Who better to understand us than any earthly priest?



Hebrews 4:15-16 (NKJV) 15 For we do not have a High Priest who cannot sympathize with our weaknesses, but was in all points tempted as we are, yet without sin. 16 Let us therefore come boldly to the throne of grace, that we may obtain mercy and find grace to help in time of need.









I. Jesus is superior to the Priesthood of Aaron. Hebrews 7:1-3, 23 - 28













II. Jesus is superior to the tabernacle. Hebrews 8:1-6

Hebrews 9:2-3; 6-7; 11-12; 13-14
