Scripture: Hebrews 4:13-16, The very reason the Incarnation took place was so Jesus would be our mediator, our intercessor to God the Father. Christ became our merciful and faithful priest, Heb. 2:17. Jesus has bridged the gulf between God and man so we can join Christ and go into the Father's presence. Because of what Christ has done for us, "let us hold fast to our confession". Draw near to God so we may receive mercy and find grace and forgiveness in our time of need.
