The Blueprint Is in Heaven | Hebrews 9:1-2a

We usually have a difficult time believing that God works in the present. It’s easier to believe that God has worked in the past, isn’t it? It’s easier to say that God has worked in ways that are identifiable after the fact – but not now in the present moment. What say you?
Why settle for the field rep when you can deal with the owner? Why settle for the outpost when you can walk right into headquarters?

Christianity is neither an addition to Judaism nor does it adorn Judaism. To the contrary, Christianity is a new order. Essentiality, Judaism gives us the symbols while Jesus gives us the substance. If you’re looking for spiritual, life-changing power, then cease clinging to the symbols and open your life to the substance.
Did Jesus have a twin? Is it possible that Jesus slipped in and out of a fleshly covering many times in Scripture, now you see Him – now you don’t? Is it really essential to see Jesus as the unique, one of a kind Son of God, or has He appeared many times in history? The answer might change your life.
The movement of history and the advance of technology have not, and cannot, invalidate or discount the Bible’s relevancy to the circumstances and dilemmas of anyone who has been created in God’s image. The disposition of the Bible is constantly up-to-date. It touches every present moment and speaks to that moment with power and relevancy.
