Opening up Hebrews

The letter to the Hebrews is a challenging document for our multi-faith age with its stress on the uniqueness of Jesus Christ in his person and work. In its call to come to Jesus 'outside the camp' it reminds us of the need for sacrifice in the Christian church.

Yet it is full of the assurance of hope in Christ. In its context and in its relevance for today Hebrews brings a special word to all who are in danger of losing heart or choosing the easy way in life. This book comes with a spiritual health warning!
