JESUS, OUR GREAT HIGH PRIEST<\/h3>\n\n\n

Jesus is our Great High Priest. He is well acquainted with all of our “weaknesses” because he has experienced them too. Therefore, we can pray with boldness in the name of Jesus, knowing that He sympathizes and will represent us before the Father. Jesus has opened the way for us, so that we can receive mercy and grace from God. He is our Great Advocate and Perfect Sacrifice because He became like us, yet without sin. We can pray knowing that he hears and understands us.<\/span><\/div>\n<\/div>\n
