JESUS IS OUR HIGH PRIIEST

Ps 110:4  The LORD hath sworn, and will not repent, Thou art a priest for ever after the order of Melchizedek. (KJV)

Heb 6:20  where Jesus has gone as a forerunner on our behalf, having become a high priest forever after the order of Melchizedek. (ESV)

Heb 7:23  The former priests were many in number, because they were prevented by death from continuing in office,
Heb 7:24  but he holds his priesthood permanently, because he continues forever.

Heb 7:27  He has no need, like those high priests, to offer sacrifices daily, first for his own sins and then for those of the people, since he did this once for all when he offered up himself.

Heb 9:12  he entered once for all into the holy places, not by means of the blood of goats and calves but by means of his own blood, thus securing an eternal redemption.

Heb 9:14  how much more will the blood of Christ, who through the eternal Spirit offered himself without blemish to God, purify our conscience from dead works to serve the living God.

Heb 10:12  But when Christ had offered for all time a single sacrifice for sins, he sat down at the right hand of God,

What Kind of High priest is He?

He is able to save to the uttermost

Heb 7:25  Consequently, he is able to save to the uttermost those who draw near to God through him, since he always lives to make intercession for them.

Merciful and Faithful High Priest

Heb 2:17  Therefore he had to be made like his brothers in every respect, so that he might become a merciful and faithful high priest in the service of God, to make propitiation for the sins of the people.

High Priest of our confession

Heb 3:1  Therefore, holy brothers, you who share in a heavenly calling, consider Jesus, the apostle and high priest of our confession,

High priest who can sympathize with our weakness – SYMPATHETIC BECAUSE OF HIS OWN SUFFERINGS

Heb 4:15  For we do not have a high priest who is unable to sympathize with our weaknesses, but one who in every respect has been tempted as we are, yet without sin.

Divinely appointed

He is for ever

He is the author and finisher of our faith

He is with Whom Father is well pleased

JESUS IS OUR MEDIATOR

1Ti 2:5  For there is one God, and there is one mediator between God and men, the man Christ Jesus,

Because of what He has done

Because of who He is (God and Man)

Col 1:22  he has now reconciled in his body of flesh by his death, in order to present you holy and blameless and above reproach before him,

JESUS IS OURINTERCESSOR

Heb 7:25  Consequently, he is able to save to the uttermost those who draw near to God through him, since he always lives to make intercession for them.

Christ Prays for us because we have an adversary who decided to destroy us

Christ prayers for us in heaven because we do not know how to pray

His Holy Spirit Intercedes for us in earth

Christ presents our prayers to the Father.

JESUS IS OUR ADVOCATE

1Jn 2:1  My little children, I am writing these things to you so that you may not sin. But if anyone does sin, we have an advocate with the Father, Jesus Christ the righteous.

The moment we confess our sin, He takes up our case before the Father

JESUS IS OUR SUERTY  (GUARANTOR _esv)

Heb 7:22  This makes Jesus the guarantor of a better covenant.
