Hebrews 10:5 (KJV) Wherefore when he cometh into the world, he saith, Sacrifice and offering thou wouldest not, but a body hast thou prepared me: Why? For what reason did Jesus come into the world? Jesus came in a body because burnt offerings and sacrifices for sin God was not pleased.
Hebrews 10:6 (KJV) In burnt offerings and sacrifices for sin thou hast had no pleasure. Well what are we to do? What should we expect? How will we know?
Hebrews 10:7 (KJV) Then said I, Lo, I come (in the volume of the book it is written of me,) to do thy will, O God. A book? What does this book talk about? Do you think that this book could be the Bible? I think so and here’s why I say that; (the book it is written of me) The Old Testament is filled with shadows of Jesus Christ. When we come into the New Testament and began to read about Jesus Christ, He steps out onto the pages and we read of Him in a body. That is what our Bible is all about, God’s love for mankind, His creation. Jesus Christ coming into this world to redeem mankind from Adam’s sinful act which in return made us sinners; we had no choice. Here’s why Genesis 1:11 (KJV) And God said, Let the earth bring forth grass, the herb yielding seed, and the fruit tree yielding fruit after his kind, whose seed is in itself, upon the earth: and it was so. That’s simple enough, plant green beans and you don’t have to wonder what is going to grow. Plant corn you get corn, so it is, every seed yielding fruit after his kind. When Adam and Eve had their children they were born after they had sinned against God. Therefore they were born not only as humans but sinners; they had no choice. Then we read of Cain killing his brother Abel. Why? Because of the sin problem. The same reason we do what we do knowing it is wrong, sin. But there’s a Book called the Bible and it’s written on our behalf. The reason we have so many problems in our lives is that we may not be taking the time to read and understand our Bibles. How much better would this world be if we had love one for another? But that’s not going to happen. How do I know that? Because we can’t even have love within our own families. Why is that? Sin! What an opportunity we have, Adam and Eve sinned and that was not our fault. God agreed, then God fixed the problem by sending His son Jesus Christ to pay the sin debt. This gives you and I a door out. But how can we know? There is a book, an instruction book if you will. All we have to do is follow the instructions. Now how simple can that be? Then said Jesus
John 10:9 (KJV) I am the door: by me if any man enter in, he shall be saved, and shall go in and out, and find pasture. It’s all in the book; yes the one over there on that table.
