Religion to Relationship

In this week's lesson from The Bible series we see in Luke 19:28-48 that a relationship with Jesus brings about things that no amount of religion could ever do. When Jesus enters my life, forgiveness comes to me because he is my high priest.

First he said, “Sacrifices and offerings, burnt offerings and sin offerings you did not desire, nor were you pleased with them”—though they were offered in accordance with the law. Then he said, “Here I am, I have come to do your will.” He sets aside the first to establish the second. And by that will, we have been made holy through the sacrifice of the body of Jesus Christ once for all (Hebrews 10:1–10, NIV).

Jesus came, a high priest above all high priests, and did not offer a bull or lamb as a sacrifice—he offered himself, and He did it for you and me.

Be wise today and always - it's not about religon it's about relationship.
