QUESTIONS FOR DISCUSSION AT HOME OR IN GOSPEL COMMUNITY GROUPS
Sermon manuscript available at emmausrbc.org
- If the Levitical priests mediated between God and man under the Old Covenant, why does 1 Timothy 2:5 say, “For there is one God, and there is one mediator between God and men, the man Christ Jesus…”?
- Why must we say that the priesthood of Old was good? What were its limitations?
- How did the priests of Old point forward to Christ’s greater work of mediation when they ministered, 1) at the altar of sacrifice, 2) at the altar of incense, and 3) in the Holy of Holies once per year?
- Why did Christ come in the order of Melchizedek, and not in the line of Levi and Aaron? See Hebrews 7.
- How might you apply this teaching to your life in thought, word, and deed?
