Deep dives

Jesus is a High Priest After the Order of Melchizedek

The author discusses Jesus as a high priest after the order of Melchizedek, emphasizing his superiority over the earthly Levitical priesthood. The author contrasts the limitations of the earthly high priests, who themselves need reconciliation and sacrifices for their own sins, with Jesus as the great high priest who offers intercession for the people. Jesus, in his human experience, knows what it is like to cry out in strong tears and suffering, making him the perfect mediator. The author encourages the audience to move beyond the basics of the Christian creed, represented as milk, and delve into the meaty substance of Jesus as the high priest after the order of Melchizedek. This entails leaving the principles of the doctrine of Christ and progressing towards the principles of perfection. The author assures that by doing so, the audience can anchor their souls with the hope of entering the heavenly holy of holies, where Jesus has already entered.
