Hb2

Jesus is our merciful and faithful high priest. He has delivered us through faith from the fear of death; the consequence of sin.

Once again, we find ourselves swimming in the deep end of the pool in this book. Notice the truths highlighted in this chapter. First, Satan used to hold the ultimate power card…death! Since we had no way to deal with sin, we were all destined for hell. Jesus has freed us from the fear of death through His sacrificial life! And third, Jesus understands what we are going through as men because He became "like" us.

God's love is constantly on display through all He has made and all He has given to us. God's faithfulness is displayed in the fact that He sent Jesus on a rescue mission to set us free from the ultimate consequence of sin; death. And God's mercy is on display by offering us freedom from His judgement through faith in Jesus.

This chapter warns us to not neglect this amazing opportunity offered by God.
