Hebrews 4:14-16
Today we come to The Lord’s Table to remember. “Do we really understand the significance of
this ordinance of worship?” The writer
of Hebrews shares important information for anyone who has received salvation
through Christ about who Jesus really is.
The depth of any religious
experience is directly related to the level of understanding of
the worshipper.

to temptation can know the full intensity of it.
The presence of
Jesus, our great and compassionate high priest, assures us of God's mercy
and grace.
