Four Splendid Typologies of Christ - High Priest - Part III

Through the intercession of our High Priest, we are judicially represented in the highest court of all—before the throne of God Almighty. Standing at the throne, each of us is examined by the Father, every deed in our life exposed. In effect, we are asked the question: “What did you do with My Son Jesus?” In other words: “Did you believe enough to invite Him into your life?” Understand that our Creator does not ask this question in hopes of punishing us; rather, He does so more along the lines of: “Please, tell Me that you believe in My Son. Tell Me that your mind and heart are open to Him, because if this is so, then I can call upon Him this very moment to make things right in your case. I so desire for that to happen—I want the record to be set straight so that we can move forward with an eternal relationship!” What a wonderful concept—our High Priest standing before the throne of the God Most High, interceding on our behalf. In turn, God declares us to be forgiven of our sins and justified in the strictest sense of the Law, all because our High Priest was able to offer the perfect sacrifice—Himself. Thus, we see the workings of our Creator in ways beyond our comprehension. Yet, one day, we will actually stand before the throne of our heavenly Father, and we will know love like we never have before. We will comprehend completely the price that was paid for our sin. In that moment, we will fully experience the blessings of our Father’s grace and mercy. Viewing things from the eternal perspective, all of our struggles in life and all of the trials we endured will make sense, and we will finally be home!
