PASSAGE: Jesus the Great High Priest, Warning Against Falling Away
MEMORY VERSE: "For you created my inmost being, you knit me together in my mother's womb. I praise you for I am fearfully and wonderfully made; your works are wonderful, I know that full well." Psalm 139:13-14
NOTES: (4:15) "For we do not have a high priest who is unable to sympathize with our weaknesses, but we have one who has been tempted in every way, just as we are--yet was without sin. Let us then approach the throne of grace with confidence, so that we may receive mercy and find grace to help us in our time of need."
(v.2) "[High priest] is able to deal gently with those who are ignorant and are going astray, since he himself is subject to weakness."
(v.4) "No one takes his honor upon himself; he must be called by God, just as Aaron was."
(v.7) "During the days of Jesus' life on earth, he offered up prayers and petitions with loud cries and tears to the one who could save him from death, and he was heard because of his reverent submission."
(v.8) "Although he was a son, he learned obedience from what he suffered and, once made perfect, he became the source of eternal salvation for all who obey him and was designated by God to be high priest in the order of Melchizedek."
(v.13) "Anyone who lives on milk, being still an infant, is not acquainted with the teaching about righteousness. But solid food is for the mature, who by constant use have trained themselves to distinguish good from evil."
ACT OF LOVE: Today, my mom came home with a whole bunch of groceries and things to bring to China (she's leaving on Friday!). I offered to help her take some stuff up and pack for her trip to CHINA. Please pray for her & my extended family when you can!
