DISCUSSION GUIDE 1.Compare/contrast the qualifications of an earthly high priest and Jesus the ultimate High Priest.

(v. 14a) Of the earth (v. 14c) Sons of men (v. 15) Sinful (v. 5:1) Appointed by men (v. 5:1d) Offers gifts & sacrifices From the heavens Son of God Tempted in all things without sin Appointed by God Is The gift and sacrifice Earthly High PriestJesus our High Priest

(v. 5:2) Beset with weakness (v. 5:4-6) Receives honor by being called (v. 5:7) Tried to live in piety (v. 5:8-9) Sacrificed other things (v. 5:10) Designated by men Never succumbed to weakness Gave honor to His Father who appointed Him Is piety Sacrificed Himself for the salvation of others Designated by God Earthly High PriestJesus our High Priest

DISCUSSION GUIDE 2.How can you have confidence that you can find grace in a time of need? (v. 4:16) a. Holding fast through prayer. b. Holding fast to the promise of forgiveness.

DISCUSSION GUIDE 3.Do you pray with confidence or doubt? If doubt, how can this change? a. Claim the promises of Scripture. b. Record requests and answers. c. Pray often not just when you have great needs.

DISCUSSION GUIDE 4.What is the significance of the writer of Hebrews quoting (Psalm 2:7) in (v. 5)? Paul explained the meaning of this quote in (Acts 13:33-34). This does not refer to Jesus being born but to Jesus being resurrected. He is the only High Priest that died and was resurrected

DISCUSSION GUIDE 5.Jesus is our High Priest “forever”, how should this impact your daily living?

DISCUSSION GUIDE 6. What is the significance of Jesus being from the order of Melchizedek? (vs. 6,10) a. Melchizedek is the only priest who was also a king.

DISCUSSION GUIDE 6. What is the significance of Jesus being from the order of Melchizedek? (vs. 6,10) b. As far as the Old Testament record Melchizedek did not die. (see Heb. 7:1-5) Of course he died at some point but we have no record of it. c. Jesus is seen as a heavenly High Priest because He did not belong to the tribe of Levi which is the earthly priest line.

F L E S H I NG O U T Y O U R FAITH 7.What does the phrase “being made perfect” in (v. 9) imply? The word perfect means “complete.” Jesus is our complete, perfect sacrifice and gives eternal life

F L E S H I NG O U T Y O U R FAITH 8. Does the phrase in (v. 9) “them that obey Him” suggest that one can lose his salvation through disobedience? Absolutely not! It means “to trust God” to put your faith in Christ

F L E S H I NG O U T Y O U R FAITH 9. What adjustments do you need to make to “hold fast” in the forgiveness provided by the Great High Priest?

F L E S H I NG O U T Y O U R FAITH Step 1Stay Near to Christ Step 2Live with confidence in God’s grace Step 3Accept His mercy Step 4Claim the promise that He is there for you Praise Him for His promise to be there for you. Holding Fast in Forgiveness
