By His Goodness And Grace

 The Cross secured God's earthly land and kingdom promises, which will be brought to all at the right time, and the Cross won the spiritual battle which the Church has been engaged in for over 2000 years, which will be ultimately fulfilled at Christ's return. 
 By His Goodness And Grace, God purposed to use the Church as the instrument to secure better promises for Israel (heavenly, as well as earthly promises) just as He used Israel as His instrument to bring the glorious gospel of redemption through their Jewish Messiah to the Gentiles.
 May we take note of the emphasis Hebrews places on the supremacy and importance of Christ, which has set us free from the curse of the Law. Let us rejoice that the life-giving power of the Spirit through union with Christ Jesus, has set us free from the power of sin and death.
since God had planned something better for us so that only together with us would they be made perfect.

Our United Prayer:
Heavenly Father, Your plan of salvation for believers is most wonderful. Thank You that Christ's sacrifice of Himself on the Cross of Calvary has enabled men and women of faith, both Old and New Testament saints, to be justified by faith and receive the forgiveness of sin and life everlasting. Whether trusting in the future Redeemer or looking back and trusting the risen Savior, the Cross paid it all, past, present, and future. Thank You for all who have trusted Your Word, both pre and post-Cross believers. In Jesus' name we Pray, AMEN.
