Christ Today: Our High Priest

Last week Christians remembered the historical events of the crucifixion and resurrection of Jesus Christ.

But what if you could see Christ today? What would you see? We find an answer in Revelation 1: 12-16. In this passage the apostle John records what he saw when he had an encounter with Christ on the island of Patmos.

John tells us that he saw Jesus “clothed in a robe reaching to the feet, and girded across His chest with a golden sash.”

The long robe is a sign of authority and dignity. It was standard dress for kings, princes, judges, and prophets. When you add the golden sash you describe the clothing of an Old Testament High Priest.

That’s what Christ is for His church. He is our High Priest always making intercession on our behalf before the throne of God.

Christ is the only mediator between God and man. He is our High Priest.
