The Gospel Conference Series


Gene presented The Gospel According to Moses at the first annual Shenandoah Valley Bible Conference held April 21-23, 2017 in Winchester, Virginia.
This series is intended to demonstrate that the Gospel message, focusing on the Person and work of Jesus Christ, is the central message of the entire Bible. The coming of the Messiah and His saving work of redemption is presented throughout the Old Testament through direct prophetic statements, as well as using types and shadows. New Testament authors repeatedly refer to Old Testament expectations of the coming of the Savior—the Lord Jesus Christ.

Hebrews 32

Hebrews 32



Heb 5:1-14


Jesus is our Mediator


Three Majestic qualities of Jesus


-Greatness of the Person (ch 1-7)


-Greatness of His work (ch 8-10)


-People of the High Priest (ch 11-13)


 


Heb 5:1-4


 


There are requirements to become a high priest. Each one is appointed by God. Our appointment came when we became believers (every believer is a priest 1PE 2:5-9, an ambassador 2CO 5:14-21, and have a ministry 1CO 12:4-7). Each one is oriented to his purpose, on behalf of men on things pertaining to God, leading his people in prayer as well as giving instruction. He has an obligation to identify with the people, to be able to deal gently. He had to be honest with God and himself, and compassionate toward others.


Jesus has to fulfill these qualifications. He is the perfect Mediator because He is God and Man - someone who is equal to both parties. 


 


Heb 5:5-10


How is Jesus qualified to identify with the people? Job 9:32-33


He did not glorify Himself by claiming the High Priest position on His own.


Appointed=Divine ordination. He was ordained by God Himself PHI 2:5-11


Even in the miracles were performed in the power of the Spirit of God. He lived in total faith. Heb 2:14-15 heb 4:15 Jesus was made High Priest on resurrection day, He became something He wasn’t before. acts 13:33


His preparation for priesthood: why does He sympathize with the broken and weary? What did it cost Him? A great deal.


His prayers won’t force us to do anything, we have to choose to be obedience, to follow, to surrender, and that’s when the impact of His prayers for our life will impact history.
