—Hebrews 2:14-18
by: Nick Kersten.
To the mostly Jewish audience of Hebrews, the acknowledgement that Jesus frees us from the sin and death associated with the Law must have been quite a shock—and a relief. Today, we are blessed by having a Savior who was tempted like we were, but who also stood up under that temptation to offer himself as a perfect sacrifice. Now, because the Spirit of God dwells with us, we also are free to stand up against temptation and live free from the burden of guilt that comes with sin.
