Better Than All the Rest

Hebrews 7

December 18, 2005
Speaker: Tony Griffies

The Ultimate High Priest

Melchizedek and Jesus

"You are a priest forever, in the order of Melchizedek." - Psalm 110:4

Jesus - The Ultimate High Priest

  • Because of His Permanence
    • Now there have been many of those priests, since death prevented them from continuing in office; but because Jesus lives forever, he has a permanent priesthood. Therefore he is able to save completely those who come to God through him, because he always lives to intercede for them. - Hebrews 7:23-25
  • Because of His Purity
    • Such a high priest meets our need--one who is holy, blameless, pure, set apart from sinners, exalted above the heavens. - Hebrews 7:26
  • Because of His Perfected Work
    • The point of what we are saying is this: We do have such a high priest, who sat down at the right hand of the throne of the Majesty in heaven... - Hebrews 8:1
