But this man, after he had offered one sacrifice for sins for ever, sat down on the right hand of God
I want to tell you about a man who was no ordinary man. This man was the world’s greatest carpenter, a true Masterbuilder, yet He never owned a home nor had a place to lay His head. This man was the greatest Teacher ever born of woman; yet He had no earthly, man-made degree. He taught perfectly from the heart, for His heart was perfect. This man was the most successful Advocate that ever represented the guilty. He endured the penalty of the Law for the guilty ones whom He represented and never lost a case. His clients are always justified. (Titus 3:7) This man was the greatest Physician to ever live. He cured all who came to Him, never requiring insurance or payment but always providing assurance and relief for His patients.
Obviously this man was no ordinary man, He was the God-man, and being such, He was the ONLY MAN who could put away sin by the sacrifice of Himself. (Hebrews 9:26) All men deserve God’s wrath and eternal condemnation, for that is “the due reward for our deeds, BUT THIS MAN hath done nothing amiss.” (Luke 23:41) No man can sacrifice or offer God anything that will take away their sin, BUT THIS MAN, the God-man, “by one offering He hath perfected for ever them that are sanctified.” (Hebrews 10:14) “BUT THIS MAN, after He had offered ONE sacrifice for sins for ever, sat down on the right hand of God.” I thank God for this man, for this man was God!
