Appointed by God – Hebrews 5:1-11
The source of salvation designated by God
Designated mediator – credentials for confident access:
- Messiah (5:1-4) – calling of compassion
Must be called by God…Christ also did not take on glory
Jesus’ humanity, humility & greater sympathy
- Melchizedek (5:5-10) – calling comparison
You are a priest forever, in the order of Melchizedek
Jesus’ High Priestly hands, heart & greater source
- Maturity (5:9-11) – calling confirmed
Once made perfect…hard to explain because…
Jesus’ higher honor & greater sacrifice
