MINISTRY

by     NB

2 Essentials we HAVE for our life here—

The Priesthood of Christ,   above;
The Word of God,   below.

The Priesthood of Christ, at the Father’s right hand, applies to all our infirmities, failure, trials and weakness, but not our flesh.

Our High Priest is full of tenderness and mercy.

For we have not a high priest which cannot be touched with the feeling of our infirmities; but was in all points tempted like as we are, yet without sin.  Let us therefore come boldly unto the throne of grace, that we may obtain mercy, and find grace to help in time of need.  Heb 4:15, 16.

Our High Priest sustains us, according to the blessing which is given us entirely out of the reach of the flesh.

His fitness for this work—

The Word of God.  Heb. 4:12  The believer’s life through this world is the judgment of the flesh by the Word.  Read carefully  2 Tim. 3:16, 17.

All Scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness:  That the man of God may be perfect, thoroughly furnished unto all good works.  2 Tim. 3:16, 17.
