Q4. Christ, our High Priest

[royk]

Jesus is my perfect high priest, tempted in everyway, but remained sinless. He was the pure Holy offering to pay for the sins of humanity. No other sacrifice  would work. And this was/is God's plan, He foreknew all humans who would believe and would/will be saved, and Jesus is the only High Priest who is capable of shedding Him own blood and the propitiation for all human sin. All Glory to the Lamb that was slain. Jesus as a high priest meets our needs, truly holy, blameless, pure, set apart from sinners, exalted above the heavens. Unlike the other high priests, he does not offer sacrifices, for our sins daily, or weekly. He sacrificed His Holy life for all our sins, once for all, when he offered himself. The law imperfect appointed human high priests; but the oath, which came after the law, appointed the Son, who was/is/and will be perfect forever."

Q4. (Hebrews 7:26-28) How is Jesus described in verse 26?
Jesus is holy, blameless, pure, set apart from sinners, exalted above the heavens. 

How does Jesus differ from human high priests?

Jesus is without sin, he took on our sin and was sinless. He was perfect and his sacrifice was once and for all a human priest must sacrifice daily. For his own sins and then for the peoples. 

What about Jesus' role as High Priest gives you special confidence?

It gives me comfort and confidence because I know that I am forgiven. A with that forgiveness I am loved.
