The people who first read Hebrews were women and men who likely comprised a house church in ancient Rome. Years prior, the entire Christian community had been expelled from Rome. Now, they live in the city subject to ridicule, threats, imprisonment, and poverty. Every day they're faced with the question, "Do you want Jesus and His Kingdom or a comfortable life in the empire?" We're asked a similar question every day as Kingdom citizens living within America. The lie inherent in some forms of American Christianity today is that we can have both. But, the experience of the early church demonstrates we cannot conform our faith in Jesus to the empire and still take hold of the Kingdom. So, what do we do when we're faced with this choice? The author of Hebrews encourages us to lift our eyes to heaven and remember God's promises. This week, Pastor Dennis Allan walks through Hebrews 8:7-13 and offers a prophetic sermon that speaks to Christians seeking to faithfully follow Jesus in America today.
