*The Law had a Flaw!
*Law wasn’t bad, but it was useless because all it can do is point out sin. The Law cannot fix people.
*Law used priests, that were flawed, to make sacrifices that, ultimately, couldn’t save.
*Law did not allow for any priest that was NOT descended from Aaron.
Summary of Hebrews Chap 7
*Melchizedek is the Man!
*He’s a foreshadow of Jesus – an example of God inserting Himself into human affairs.
*He’s a man who is BOTH a Priest and a King – just like Jesus.
*He’s from a priestly order that does not depend on genealogy – just like Jesus.
*He was chosen by God – just like Jesus.
*He was greater than Abraham & Aaron – so he was outside of the law.
