Jesus didn’t just cover our sins; He obtained eternal redemption with the only sacrifice that could truly save. In this message, “Redemption Obtained” from Hebrews 9:11–14, Pastor Ryan Skolrud shows how Christ, our great High Priest, entered the greater heavenly tabernacle “once for all” by His own blood, securing a complete and everlasting redemption that the Old Testament sacrifices could only foreshadow. You’ll see how Jesus fulfills the imagery of the Day of Atonement and the scapegoat, what Scripture means by “penal substitutionary atonement,” and how the blood of Christ not only satisfies God’s justice but also cleanses our consciences from dead works so we can serve the living God with confidence and joy.
This sermon will help you wrestle honestly with the reality of sin, hell, and God’s holiness, while holding out the sure hope that heaven is not for “good people,” but for forgiven people who know they are not good enough and trust entirely in Jesus’ finished work. Whether you’re questioning how a loving God can have wrath, wondering if you’ve done enough to be saved, or longing for assurance that your debt is truly paid, you’ll be invited to turn from self-reliance and submit your life to the Lamb of God who takes away the sin of the world.
