What is a Priest
A priest served as a mediator between God and his people.
Because of our sin, there is now an obstacle that prevents us from reaching God.
We no longer need to go through a priest to get to God.
Jesus is able to relate to us
Jesus is able to relate to us
Heb 4:15-
We have a tendency to think that people are not able to relate to us.
That our problems and issues are isolated to only us.
When we think about God, we tend to extend that even more.
How could God who is perfect understand me?
How could God who is perfect love me?
How could God who is perfect forgive me?
There is no temptation Jesus cannot relate to us
Jesus knows what it is like to be misunderstood by your parents
Jesus knows what it is like to lose a friend
Jesus knows what it is like to be betrayed
Jesus knows what it is like to slandered, bullied, and gossiped about
Jesus knows what it is like to be anxious
And He has conquered every one of these temptations by not sinning.
Application
Run to God in every problem
“Your worst days are never so bad that you are beyond the reach of God’s grace.”
Jerry Bridges
We look to Jesus when we face struggles, because in Him we find hope.
We see an end to temptations and suffering.
We also find mercy and grace.
We don’t find try harder, do this, do that.
But I understand, and there is forgiveness and blessing in Christ.
Jesus Intercedes for us
One of the chief responsibilities of the priests is to make intercession for the people.
They would go before the alter in the Temple and offer sacrifice for the sins of the people.
They would stand between the guilt of the people and the holiness of God.
Jesus does this perfectly.
The priests were not sinless.
Jesus does this constantly
Application
Confess our sins
Jesus gave his life for us
The priests would make these sacrifices as an Atonement, a reconciling of the guilt of a person’s sins with the holiness of God.
These sacrifices were a substitute for the people.
Jesus became the perfect sacrifice for us.
A sacrifice without blemish, without sin, someone who had walked in our shoes and was fully innocent.
Someone who was our perfect substitute and willingly gave his life as a ransom for sinners.
Through this Jesus atoned for our sins of everyone who trusts in Him, reconciling them with God and securing an eternal redemption.
Application
Have confidence and assurance in your salvation
Live out your new life in Christ
Live holy lives
Do not doubt the promises of Jesus
Love, care, and encourage one another
