The qualifications for Christ's priesthood -- Hebrews 5:7-9: Jesus Christ, while in the flesh subjected Himself to hunger, temptation, bleeding and dying Jesus. God could have saved Jesus from dying. But, what would have become of us if He had. In the days of His flesh Christ offered up prayers to God, joined with strong crying and tear.

Christ was God's Son and by His suffering He learned obedience. There are two ways of learning obedience: (1) You learn it by comprehension of mind, and (2) You learn it by experience. Christ has now been "made perfect, and he became the author of eternal salvation unto all them that obey him." (Hebrews 5:9)

God's desire is for every person to obey Him and become Christians. Let all come to Jesus in faith (Hebrews 11:6), repentance (Acts 17:30-31), confession (Matthew 10:32-33), baptism for forgiveness of sins (Acts 2:38) and then live a Christian life (1 Peter 2:9). If you are not yet a Christian, it is my earnest prayer that you will heed the call of our risen Lord thought His glorious and powerful gospel while you still have life and opportunity. Christ gave His blood to make your salvation possible. Lean obedience NOW before it is too late!
