People may cheer for the same team year after year, despite a consistent losing record. You may applaud their consistency, but the fact is, they never taste victory. Today Dr. John speaks of the Priesthood of Jesus, after the order of Melchizedek, doing what the priesthood of Aaron could never do. The superior has surpassed the inferior. The eternal replaces the temporal. Why does it matter? Because only in Jesus is victory assured.Jesus, Our High Priest: A priest stands as intercessor between God and humanity. The priest offers prayers, sacrifices, and makes intercessions on behalf of the people. They act as mediators between the human and Divine. It becomes readily obvious why Jesus is described as the Ultimate Priest. In this 10-mesage series, Dr. John walks us through Hebrews chapters 5-7 and describes the priestly office Jesus performs on our behalf. Listen, not just for understanding, but for praise and gratitude to Jesus who still serves on our behalf.
