Does Hebrews 10:26 Mean What It Says? | Responding to Matt McMillen

Does Hebrews 10:26 warn believers or unbelievers? This response to Matt McMillen examines the passage in context, distinguishing persistent, deliberate sin from stumbling and repenting. It considers Messiah's once-for-all sacrifice, why returning to temple worship is not the sin being warned against, and the call to repentance and faithful endurance.

Peoples of the Bible: The Egyptians

Who were the Egyptians, and what does Scripture—and history—actually say about them? From their origin in Mitzraim (Genesis 10:6) to their complex religion, monumental architecture, and repeated intersections with Israel, this teaching explores how YHWH judged Egypt’s gods in the plagues, warned Israel against trusting in Pharaoh, and still promises a future when the nations worship him. We close by connecting Israel’s deliverance from Egypt to our freedom from sin through Yeshua (Romans 6). Show Notes / Outline Origins & Geography: Egypt from Mitzraim; Nile floodplain and grain abundance. Culture & Power: Pharaoh as divine kingship; temples, pyramids, craftsmen. Religion: Amun-Ra, Osiris, Horus; magic and afterlife emphasis; why “judgments on the gods of Egypt” matters (Exodus 12:12). Scripture Intersections: Abraham, Joseph, the Exodus; later kings trusting Egypt and the prophetic rebukes. Prophecy & Hope: Assyria/Babylon era lessons; future worship of YHWH among the nations (Sukkot). Discipleship Application: Don’t “return to Egypt.” Freed from sin, we serve YHWH in righteousness through Yeshua (Romans 6). Challenge: Test everything by the whole Word (1 Thessalonians 5:21) Key Takeaway YHWH alone saves. Israel’s deliverance from Egypt points us to our deliverance from sin through Yeshua—so we must not run back to our “Egypt,” but walk in faithful obedience to his commandments.

Christ's Sacrifice Once for All: Is the Levitical Priesthood Replaced? thumbnail

Christ's Sacrifice Once for All: Is the Levitical Priesthood Replaced?

Christ’s Sacrifice Once for All: Is the Levitical Priesthood Replaced? addresses one of the most misunderstood issues in New Testament theology. Did Yeshua’s once-for-all sacrifice abolish the Levitical priesthood and sacrificial system? Many say yes—but Scripture tells a different story. In this episode, we examine what the Book of Hebrews really says, and how the apostles, prophets, and Yeshua himself viewed the priesthood and sacrifices. We also unpack how animal sacrifices functioned on an earthly level, and how Messiah’s sacrifice functions on a heavenly level—removing any contradiction between them.
