Hebrews 4:15 For we have not an high priest which cannot be touched with the feeling of our infirmities; but was in all points tempted like as we are… I. THE CHRISTIAN'S WANTS. 1. Pardon. 2. Strength. II. THE CHRISTIAN'S PRIVILEGE. We may obtain all we require. 1. We may approach the throne of grace. 2. Boldly, not with a feeling of terror, but as unto a loving God, a reconciled Father. III. THE CHRISTIAN'S ENCOURAGEMENTS. We need an advocate. Christ is the sinner's Advocate. We need an experienced advocate — Jesus was a tempted and experienced Saviour. We need a compassionate advocate — Jesus was an experienced, and therefore a compassionate Advocate. (H. M. Villiers, M. A.) Parallel Verses KJV: For we have not an 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. |
