Hebrews: The True and Better - Hebrews 4.14-16

Jobey McGinty

Paying attention to the “small words” in the bible is of critical importance for us. Whether it is “and” or “but” or “if,” all of these make a huge difference in understanding what the Lord is telling us. And in Hebrews, we see a lot of these, and in particular we see a lot of two important phrases: Because, and Therefore. Because we have a “great High Priest” who entered into the heavens on our behalf, we then therefore should hold firmly to the confession of our faith in Him. And this great High Priest actually comes alongside of us and empowers us to hold firmly to the saving truth of the Gospel.
