Hebrews 10:11-25
In contrast to that religion which repeats itself endlessly, claiming to tie us to the cycles and rhythms of this Created world yet unable to deal decisively with sin, Jesus Christ has made and is himself the one, perfect sacrifice. Only as we are united to him are we drawn into God’s life here on earth as well as heaven. On this Commitment Sunday, we reflect on money as one example of an earthly power claiming to order our lives that must be placed in submission under Christ’s feet. God takes what we bring, our gifts of money, repentance, holiness, faith, and unites them to his Son, who alone is the perfect gift from the Father to us and from us back to God.
