Once For All
Reading Hebrews 10 today. Loved the rich phrase "...the sacrifice of the body of Jesus Christ once for all." It was done only once, as necessary; and it was done for all, not just the supposed righteous or just the Hebrew people. All. Perhaps this could even overlap that concept in Romans about "all creation groaning" and "awaiting" redemption...
I wonder how Judgment is going to go down. The end of this chapter talks about how those who rejected the law of Moses died without mercy on the testimony of two or three witnesses and how much greater a punishment a man deserves if he tramples the Son of God under foot. I wonder if this is conjecture about a scenerio on earth, or one in Heaven on Judgment Day... Will those who have never heard the Gospel be given a chance on that Day to believe?
On another note, since I was listening to the new Zebra album while on the way to work, and I passed two zebras in a field...does that mean anything?
