"Jesus Is Our High Priest"

 "Here is the main point: We have a High Priest who sat down in the place of honor beside the throne of the majestic God in heaven. There he ministers in the heavenly Tabernacle, the true place of worship that was build be the Lord and not by human hands. 

 "And since every high priest is required to offer gifts and sacrifices, our High Priest must make an offering, too. If he were here on earth, he would not even be a priest, since there already are priests who offer gifts required by the law. They serve a system of worship that is only a copy, a shadow of the real one in heaven. For when Moses was getting ready to build the Tabernacle, God gave him this warning: "Be sure that you make everything according to the pattern I have shown you here on the mountain."

 "But now Jesus, our High Priest, has been given a ministry that is far superior to the old priesthood, for he is the one who mediates for us a far better covenant with God, based on better promises." (Hebrews 8:1-6 NLT)

  "For I reckon that the sufferings of this present time are not worthy to be compared with the glory which shall be revealed in us. For the earnest expectation of the creature waiteth for the manifestation of the sons of God. For the creature was made subject to vanity, not willingly, but by reason of him who hath subjected the same in hope; because the creature itself also shall be delivered from the bondage of corruption into the glorious liberty of the children of God." (Romans 8:18-21 KJV) 

 Just because we are frail and sometimes fail to overcome the temptations of our flesh, we are still able to be covered by the grace which has been freely given by God. Surprisingly, the grace, which was excepted, when we first believed, does not fade or go away! I have said it more than once, and I will say it again: If you have been redeemed and are a child of God, you will remain a child of God for all eternity! That is the promise of that exceeds all other promises...

"Blessed be the God and Father of the Lord Jesus Christ, which according to his abundant mercy hath begotten us again unto a lively hope by the resurrection of Jesus Christ from the dead, to an inheritance incorruptible, and undefiled, and that fadeth not away, reserved in heaven for you, who are kept be the power of God through faith unto salvation ready to be revealed in the last time." (1 Peter 1:3-5 KJV)
