Hebrews 7:25-26
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.
For it was indeed fitting that we should have such a high priest, holy, innocent, unstained, separated from sinners, and exalted above the heavens. (ESV)
by Leota Stevens
The Bible declares that the power of the priesthood of Jesus knows no earthly limitations. Christ is higher than the heavens and able to save to the uttermost those who come to him. Does your view of the savior-priest conform to this expression of God’s Word?
