Primitive Christianity Revived, Again
Below is an excerpt of a reflection by ESR student Josh Seligman on a message delivered in worship on November 8, 2012:
In today's programmed worship service at ESR, Michael Sherman preached from Hebrews 10 about sacrifice. Michael argued that Jesus' death on the cross was the final sacrifice and that God no longer desires Christians to sacrifice, but rather to give of ourselves willingly.
This resurfaced some questions I have been asking since being in seminary: What was and is the meaning of Jesus' death on the cross? How did or does Jesus' death save us? What does it mean for Christians to sacrifice? Perhaps exploring the very word "sacrifice" will help.
