Better Than The Priests

For centuries the priests were the gatekeepers of atonement and salvation. Many saw them as the doorway to eternity and the means by which one could have any connection to God whatsoever. The author of Hebrews shows us in chapters 4 through 8 that the old Levitical priesthood is no longer useful and has been replaced by Christ himself. Christ is our great high priest who offers the sacrifice of himself continuously before the throne of God.
