NOT ASHAMED TO CALL US BRETHREN
*Heb.

*Introduction:* Brief tie-In with last lesson (esp.

As a result of Christ’s becoming flesh, we find that three great blessings are ours:
*I.
We Are His Brethren (vv.
11-13).*
A.
We are */sanctified/* by his blood.
1.
“To make clean, to purify, to make holy.”
2. “To consecrate; to set apart from a common to a sacred use.”
3. See 1 Cor.
1:30
B.
Quotation from 0.T.

Ps.
22:22 (v.12).
2. 2 Sam.
22:3 (v.

*II.
He Destroyed Satan’s Stronghold (14,15).*
A.
See Mt. 12:29

When Christ came, judgment upon Satan was imminent.
2. Luke 10:1-17, notice v.18: “I beheld Satan fall as lightning from heaven.”
3. Rev.

By overcoming death, Christ broke Satan’s power!
1.
He is the “firstfruits” from the grave.
(1 Cor.
15:23)
2. He is the “firstborn from the dead.”
(Col.
1:18)
3. The use of the word “first” implies that others are to follow!
C.
Fear of death is a bondage from which we are released by Christ’s resurrection! 1 Cor.
15:55-57
III.
By Becoming a Man (Abraham’s Seed), He is Qualified to Be a Faithful and Merciful High Priest.
A.
A resurrection of the argument begun in v. 9, concerning the seeming contradiction between Christ’s being superior to angels, but being made “a little lower” than the angels.
1.
Necessary, that a proper sacrifice could be offered (Heb 9:22).
2. Necessary, that he be “perfected through sufferings” (v.9).
3. Necessary, that he is able to be a faithful and merciful high priest.
*Conclusion:* What a friend we have in Jesus!
With Paul, we exclaim: “O the depth of the riches both of the wisdom and knowledge of God! How unsearchable are his judgments, and his ways past finding out!” (Rom.
11:33).
