Summary

Jesus Christ did not come to start a new religion. He didn’t come to start the best religion. He came to end religion. Every religion has its extremists. Religion causes an enormous amount of conflict and strife in this world. What are we going to do about it? To embrace Jesus Christ is to end religion, is to move away from all religion. There are two things Hebrews 8 tells us: 1) Jesus came to end all religion and, 2) therefore, Jesus came to give us a radical new covenant relationship with God. This sermon was preached by Dr. Timothy Keller at Redeemer Presbyterian Church on March 13, 2005. Series: Christ: Our Treasury (The Book of Hebrews). Scripture: Hebrews 8:1-2; 7-13.

0:50.7	We do have such a high priest who sat down at the right hand of the throne of the majesty in heaven
0:55.2	and who serves in the sanctuary the true tabernacle set up by the Lord, not by man. For if there had
1:02.7	been nothing wrong with that first covenant, no place would have been sought for another. But God found
1:08.6	fault with the people and said, The time is coming, declares the Lord,
