The author of Hebrews reminds his audience that the Old Testament forms and rituals are no longer needed because of Christ's work on the cross. One piece of formalism that the church tries to hold onto is the concept of a ?sacred space? such as a sanctuary. A discussion follows on other ways the church historically and presently tries to maintain Old Testament forms. When the church tries to maintain these forms, it is promoting that Christ's work on the cross was not sufficient.
