The High Priest

     In Hebrews chapter 5, the author wrote: 

     "Although he (Jesus) was a son, he learned obedience from what he suffered and, once made perfect, he became the source of eternal salvation ... a high priest in the order of Melchizedek. 

Another Warning

     Chapter 6: "It is impossible for those who have once been enlightened...if they fall away, to be brought back to repentance, because they are crucifying the Son of God all over again."

Promise to Abraham 

     "When God made his promise to Abraham, since there was no one greater for him to swear by, he swore by himself, 'I will surely bless you and give you many descendants.'" 

     "Because God wanted to make the unchanging nature of his purpose very clear to the heirs of what was promised, he confirmed it with an oath." 

     The author wrote: "We have this hope as an anchor for the soul, firm and secure. It enters the inner sanctuary behind the curtain, where Jesus, who went before us, has entered on our behalf. He has become a high priest, forever."
