Gen Z: Hebrews 9
1So like, the first covenant had some serious rules for divine service and a chill spot for worship.
2They built a tabernacle, the first one, with the candlestick, table, and showbread; it was the ultimate sanctuary.
3And behind the second veil, there was the tabernacle known as the Holiest of all; vibes were high.
4It had a golden censer and the ark of the covenant, all decked out in gold, with a pot of manna, Aaron's rizzed-up rod, and the tables of the covenant.
5And over it were the cherubim flexing their glory, covering the mercy seat; we can't spill all the tea on that right now.
6When all this was set up, the priests were always popping off in the first tabernacle, doing God's work.
7But the high priest rolled into the second one solo once a year, not without blood, which he offered for himself and the people's mess-ups.
8The Holy Ghost was signaling that the way to the Holiest wasn't revealed yet, while the first tabernacle was still a thing.
9It was a vibe for that time, where they offered gifts and sacrifices that didn't really perfect the service dude's conscience.
10It was all about food, drinks, and different washings, with carnal rules until the time of reformation hit.
11But Christ came in as the ultimate high priest, bringing all the good vibes to come, in a next-level tabernacle, not made by human hands, fr.
12Not by the blood of goats and calves, but by His own blood, He rolled into the holy place once, securing our eternal redemption, no cap.
13If the blood of bulls and goats, and the ashes of a heifer can cleanse the unclean, that’s pretty lit for the flesh.
14How much more does the blood of Christ, who vibed through the eternal Spirit and offered Himself flawless to God, clean your conscience from dead works to serve the living God?
15For this reason, He’s the goated mediator of the new testament, so through His death, we can get that promise of eternal inheritance, periodt.
16Where there’s a testament, there’s gotta be a death of the testator, that’s just how it goes.
17A testament only pops off after the testator kicks the bucket; while they’re alive, it’s basically sus.
18The first testament didn’t even get dedicated without some blood, that’s facts.
19When Moses dropped all the laws to the people, he took the blood of calves and goats, mixed it with water, scarlet wool, and hyssop, and sprinkled it on the book and all the peeps, fr.
20He said, "This is the blood of the testament that God laid down for you."
21He sprinkled blood on the tabernacle and all the ministry stuff, no cap.
22Basically, everything’s cleaned up by blood; without that, there's no forgiveness, periodt.
23So, it was necessary to purify the heavenly vibes with these sacrifices, but the real deal needs better ones, fr.
24Christ didn’t roll into the man-made holy spots; He’s in heaven now, flexing in God's presence for us.
25He ain't gotta offer himself all the time like the high priest does yearly with that blood, that's sus.
26If that were the case, He would’ve been suffering since day one, but instead, He showed up once to take away sin with His own sacrifice, lit.
27People gotta die once, then it’s judgment time, no cap.
28So, Christ was offered once to carry the sins of many; those looking for Him will see Him again, no sin, just salvation, bet.
