Humanity of Christ

Since then we have a great high priest who has passed through the heavens, Jesus, the Son of God, let us hold fast our confession. 15For we do not have a high priest who is unable to sympathize with our weaknesses, but one who in every respect has been tempted as we are, yet without sin. 16 Let us then with confidence draw

near to the throne of grace, that we may receive mercy and find grace to help in time of need.

Hebrews 4:14-16Since then we have a great high priest who has passed through the heavens, Jesus, the Son of God, let us hold fast our confession. 15For we do not have a high priest who is unable to sympathize with our weaknesses, but one who in every respect has been tempted as we are, yet without sin. 16 Let us then with confidence draw

in Him.

Reason #3

The Saving Reason

Before the mountains were born, Or Thou didst give birth to the earth and the world, Even from everlasting

to everlasting, Thou art God.

Psalm 90:2 Before the mountains were born, Or Thou didst give

birth to the earth and the world, Even from everlasting to everlasting, Thou art God.

Isaiah 40:28Do you not know? Have you not heard? The

Everlasting God, the LORD, the Creator of the ends of the earth Does not become weary or tired. His

understanding is inscrutable.

the earth Does not become weary or tired. His understanding is inscrutable.

who, although He existed in the form of God, did not regard equality with God a thing to be grasped, but emptied Himself, taking the form of a bond-servant, and being made in the likeness of men. And being

found in appearance as a man, He humbled Himself by becoming obedient to the point of death, even death

on a cross.

Philippians 2:6-8who, although He existed in the form of God, did not regard equality with God a thing to be grasped, but emptied Himself, taking the form of a bond-servant, and being made in the likeness of men. And being

found in appearance as a man, He humbled Himself by becoming obedient to the point of death, even death

on a cross.

  For it was fitting that we should have such a high priest, holy, innocent, undefiled, separated from sinners

and exalted above the heavens; who does not need daily, like those high priests, to offer up sacrifices, first for His own sins, and then for the sins of the people, because this He did once for all when He offered up

Himself.

Hebrews 7:26-27  For it was fitting that we should have such a high

priest, holy, innocent, undefiled, separated from sinners and exalted above the heavens; who does not need

daily, like those high priests, to offer up sacrifices, first for His own sins, and then for the sins of the people, because this He did once for all when He offered up

Himself.
