The Definition of the word Priest
The Definition of the word Priest
Priest
A priest was the one ordained to represent the people and present sacrifices from the people and himself to God for the atonement of sin and fulfillment of the laws
11 Under the old covenant, the priest stands and ministers before the altar day after day, offering the same sacrifices again and again, which can never take away sins.
12 But our High Priest offered himself to God as a single sacrifice for sins, good for all time. Then he sat down in the place of honor at God’s right hand.
Jesus Christ , God’s Son is our High Priest!
Our High Priest moved right from earth into heaven."
Our High Priest is seated before the very throne of God;
Our High Priest is in the very presence of God Himself. That’s Our High Priest!
Our High Priest ministers in the very presence of God Himself. That’s Our High Priest!
Our High Priest, is able to sympathize with thing we go through! That’s Our High Priest!
Our High Priest is able to actually feel every experience that we experience—no matter how painful. That’s Our High Priest!
Our High Priest, not only feels for us, He feels right along with us. That’s Our High Priest!
Our High Priest is sympathetic - That’s Our High Priest!
Our High Priest meets our every need and carries us through all the sufferings of this life. - That’s Our High Priest!
17 For this reason Jesus had to be made like his brothers and sisters in every way so he could be their merciful and faithful high priest in service to God. Then Jesus could die in their place to take away their sins.
That’s Our High Priest!
Our High Priest came to earth to deliver and save you and me from sin, death, and condemnation. - That’s Our High Priest!

9 For in Christ lives all the fullness of God in a human body.
3 The Son radiates God’s own glory and expresses the very character of God, and he sustains everything by the mighty power of his command. When he had cleansed us from our sins, he sat down in the place of honor at the right hand of the majestic God in heaven.
1 Here is the point of what we are saying: We have a high priest who sits on the right side of God’s throne in heaven.
How Great Is Our High Priest
Here is my point is this:
Because of Jesus - stay true to your confession of him as your Lord and Savior
Jesus Christ is the only one who can save.
He is the only one that passed into heaven.
If you wan to go to heaven, you must confess Jesus Christ and hold fast to our confession.
You must be genuine, because Jesus is genuine!
Jesus is the way to to enter heaven and live with God for eternity
I Give Honor To Our Great High Priest!
But God didn’t stop there

20 I pray that the God of peace will give you every good thing you need so you can do what he wants. God raised from the dead our Lord Jesus, the Great Shepherd of the sheep, because of the blood of his death. His blood began the eternal agreement that God made with his people. I pray that God will do in us what pleases him, through Jesus Christ, and to him be glory forever and ever. Amen.
