The Bible calls believers to consider Jesus as the apostle and high priest of our profession, reflecting on His sinlessness and sacrificial role.
In Hebrews 3:1, believers are instructed to consider Jesus, who is identified as the apostle and high priest of our profession. This involves a deep contemplation and understanding of His nature and work. The term 'consider' suggests more than a passing thought; it requires perceiving and understanding with both mind and heart. Jesus, being sinless, offers a unique priesthood that fulfills all that the Levitical priests foreshadowed. His sacrifice, completed through His own blood, makes it possible for sinners to be declared not guilty before God.
