Jesus Christ is the radiance of the glory of God, the superior Son of God, the great High Priest, and the Mediator of a better covenant—revealing himself to us again and again for our encouragement, our hope, and our perseverance. In this series of 52 sermons from the book of Hebrews, John Piper exhorts us to run the race in the presence of Christ the King. These messages challenge us to stir each other up to live well and to die well by faith, which is the assurance of things hoped for and the evidence of things unseen. Volume 3: Let us Press On to Maturity (Heb 6:1-3); When Is Saving Repentance Impossible? (Heb 6: 4-8); The Full Assurance of Hope to the End (Heb 6: 9-12); When Does God Swear? (Heb 6:13-18); Hope Anchored in Heaven (Heb 6: 19-20); From Mechizedek to Eternal Savior (Heb 7:1-25); Our High Priest is the Son of God Perfect Forever (Heb 7:26 - 8:5)

I was expecting a lecture series teaching Hebrews. What I got was a sermon series teaching Hebrews. Not what I wanted but find for what it was This sermon series was delivered by John Piper over 2 years back in the mid to late 90's and sometimes the production values reflect this; especially if you are listening in a car.
