Part I

Hebrews 4:14-5:10: 14Seeing then that we have a great high priest, that is passed

into the heavens, Jesus the Son of God, let us hold fast our profession. 15For we

have not an high priest which cannot be touched with the feeling of our

infirmities; but was in all points tempted like as we are, yet without sin. 16Let us

therefore come boldly unto the throne of grace, that we may obtain mercy, and

find grace to help in time of need….1For every high priest taken from among

men is ordained for men in things pertaining to God, that he may offer both gifts

and sacrifices for sins: 2Who can have compassion on the ignorant, and on them

that are out of the way; for that he himself also is compassed with infirmity. 3And

by reason hereof he ought, as for the people, so also for himself, to offer for sins.

4And no man taketh this honour unto himself, but he that is called of God, as

was Aaron. 5So also Christ glorified not himself to be made an high priest; but

he that said unto him, Thou art my Son, to day have I begotten thee. 6As he saith

also in another place, Thou art a priest for ever after the order of Melchisedec.

7Who in the days of his flesh, when he had offered up prayers and supplications

with strong crying and tears unto him that was able to save him from death, and

was heard in that he feared; 8Though he were a Son, yet learned he obedience

by the things which he suffered; 9And being made perfect, he became the author

of eternal salvation unto all them that obey him; 10Called of God an high priest

after the order of Melchisedec.
