Quest for Hope
The Scapegoat 2-19-16
Hebrews 9:11-14
Yesterday, our focus was on surrendering our weakness for Mercy’s Kiss—the power of Christ to conquer sin. Today, in our quest for hope, we will look at two covenant systems referred to in the bible: the old and the new and what makes them different. The old system involved outward cleansing ceremonies through the spilling of animal blood where only a priest could enter; it never brought a cleansing to the people’s conscience. The new system provides a personal Savior—the sacrificial Lamb and the Scapegoat—who enters and does a complete cleansing of the inner person. Someone say, “This is Grace!”
