BIG IDEA: Christ didn't just cover our past at the altar — He conquered our future for freedom.
THE ALTAR AT THE GATE
- Atonement precedes everything; the altar was always first.
- Christ's once for all offering changes everything about how we live.
THE PERFECT SACRIFICE OFFERED
- Old sacrifices were endless because they were insufficient, a rehearsal not the performance.
- Generations of sacrifice couldn't do what Christ did once, and He sat down to prove it.
FROM FORGIVEN TO FREE
- We don't offer our lives to earn God's acceptance; we offer them because we already have it.
- Freedom in Christ isn't a license to sin; it's the liberty to worship without fear.
