Why is Jesus our high priest significant?

Answered in 1 source

Jesus, as our high priest, secures eternal salvation and intercedes for us before God.

The significance of Christ as our high priest lies in His unique ability to mediate between God and humanity. Unlike the Levitical priests who offered sacrifices regularly, Jesus entered the heavenly sanctuary once for all, as detailed in Hebrews 6:20. His sacrificial death and ongoing intercession ensure that believers have eternal access to God. This role not only signifies the completion of the sacrificial system but also provides believers with a confident assurance of their standing before God, reinforcing the certainty of their salvation.
