Once For All (Hebrews 7:26-28)
Bob Schultz, April 3, 2016Part of the Book of Hebrews series, preached at a Sunday Morning service
This week we conclude our study of Hebrews 7 by comparing and contrasting again the high priestly ministry of Jesus with the priests of the Old Testament. Specifically, the writer emphasizes the sinless character of Christ, His once for all sacrifice, and His permanent ministry.
Hebrews 7:26–28 (Listen)
26 For it was indeed fitting that we should have such a high priest, holy, innocent, unstained, separated from sinners, and exalted above the heavens. 27 He has no need, like those high priests, to offer sacrifices daily, first for his own sins and then for those of the people, since he did this once for all when he offered up himself. 28 For the law appoints men in their weakness as high priests, but the word of the oath, which came later than the law, appoints a Son who has been made perfect forever.
