Approaching the throne of God…
We come to the book of Hebrews that was written to Jews who had accepted Jesus as the Messiah. As we study through the book a chapter a day we see that the author is addressing a group in danger of slipping back into the traditions of Judaism. The main reason seems to be that they had not put down deep enough roots in the soil of Christianity. We will not know the author of this book for sure this side of heaven since the author purposely did not identify himself in it. But it is a book with broad appeal. It appealed to both the first century Greek mind as well as the Jewish mind. The book of Hebrews presents Jesus Christ as the only way that sinful humanity can come to God… keep drinking of His living water.
