“主起了誓,决不后悔,你是永远为祭司。”既是起誓立的,耶稣就作了更美之约的中保。……这位既是永远常存的,他祭司的职任就长久不更换。 凡靠着他进到神面前的人,他都能拯救到底;因为他是长远活着,替他们祈求。
希伯来书 7:21b-22, 24-25
耶稣是我们的保证。祂是神的誓言,我们法律上的担保,就是与神新的约定将会应验。我们能有确信、把握、并倚靠耶稣的能力来洁净我们、且吸引我们靠近神。耶稣说……
你所做的,没有什么可以使你与我对你的爱隔离。不要继续在你的罪中,但要强烈地恨恶它。我的爱就像一把锋利的刀,切掉腐烂,保存好的果子……
1001 JESUS is our SURETY
JESUS is our SURETY. He is God’s pledge, our legal assurance that the new agreement with God will be fulfilled. We can have confidence, certainty, and depend on the ability of Jesus to cleanse us and draw us close to God. JESUS says…
Nothing you have ever done can separate you from My love for you. Do not continue in your sin, but hate it with passion. My love is like a sharp knife which cuts away the rottenness to release and preserve the good fruit…
“….The Lord sware and will not repent, Thou art a priest for ever after the order of Mel-chis-ed-ed: By so much was Jesus made a surety of a better testament… because he continueth ever, hath an unchangeable priesthood. Wherefore he is able also to save them to the uttermost that come unto God by him, seeing he ever liveth to make intercession for them.”
Hebrews 7:21b-22, 24-25, KJV
