Hb7

Jesus is the "guarantee of a better covenant". He is the high priest forever. "He is always able to save those who come to God through Him, since He always lives to intercede for them."

Think about what is being said here. Jesus is our representative before God. He is our lawyer. He is the one who is presenting our case to God. Not on our merits, but rather on His! We stand before God because of what He did for us, not because of anything we did for ourselves.

He died once for all! His sacrificial death did away with our need to continue the practice of priestly sacrificing to atone for sins. He was the perfect sacrifice. He is the Lamb of God who truly takes away our sins.

Good news today.
