Jesus Christ, Our High Priest: Hebrews 2:14-15 KJV

[Willie White]

Forasmuch then as the children are partakers of flesh and blood, He also himself likewise took part of the same; that through death He might destroy him that had the power of death, that is, the devil; ¹⁵ And deliver them who through fear of death were all their lifetime subject to bondage.

How did Jesus become our High Priest?  Our scripture verses tell us that just as we were of flesh and blood, Jesus became human, made of flesh and blood that was required by God the Father to pay man's sin-debt.  Jesus Christ became flesh and blood but never relinquished His deity; therefore, He was both human and divine.

Jesus Christ is our High Priest because He is God in the second person who was present at the beginning with God; all things that were made were by Him.

Jesus is our High Priest because He was the only One found worthy to pay man's sin-debt; that He did.  Thank You, Jesus, for paying my sin debt.

Jesus became our High Priest being human and divine, He conquered death, hell, and the grave freeing all believers from the fear of death through His sacrificial death on the cross at Calvary.  We, as believers, have been assuring eternal life thanks to Jesus Christ, our Propitiator.  All believers can say, Job; I know that my Redeemer lives.

Jesus is our High Priest, now seated at the Father's right hand, making intercessions for us.
