Jesus our Mediating King and High Priest

On Palm Sunday, Interim Pastor Chris Meads preaches about the present implications of Jesus' resurrection and how it assures eternal salvation. He explains that while the old priestly system could not permanently deal with sin, Jesus now serves as the forever high priest. His death on the cross justifies believers, but His ongoing life and eternal intercession secure their sanctification, perseverance, and complete redemption. Christ always lives to pray for those who draw near to God through Him, guaranteeing their faith will reach its intended fulfillment. Meads encourages the congregation to rely on their living, interceding Savior rather than themselves as He holds up their relationship with God.
