No Pain No Gain

1. Not looking for the Mark Of the Beast, but instead we have a Great High Priest! (Heb 4:14) – “Seeing 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.”
Instead of waiting for the mark of the Beast, as believers in Jesus Christ we have a High Priest.
That means that He is not only our go between to the Father but also the following verses. Check them out.
2. God knows our pain and our name! (Heb 4:15) – “For 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.”
Jesus, our High Priest can relate to our every temptations yet without sin. Because He overcame we too can overcome!
3. There is “Grace in Place for the Race” to help in time of need! (Heb 4:16) – “Let us therefore come boldly unto the throne of grace, that we may obtain mercy, and find grace to help in time of need.”
Did you notice that our Lord’s throne is a throne of GRACE instead of judgement? As CHRISTians we not only have access but also boldness to enter into His presence.
