Hebrews 4.12-16

Posted: 02 Nov 2006 @ 00:00

12The word of God is living and active, sharper than any two-edged swordpiercing until it divides soul from spirit, joints from marrow; it is able tjudge the thoughts and intentions of the heart. 13And before him no creature ihidden, but all are naked and laid bare to the eyes of the one to whom we musrender an account.14Since, then, we have a great high priest who has passed through thheavens, Jesus, the Son of God, let us hold fast to our confession. 15For we dnot have a high priest who is unable to sympathize with our weaknesses, but whave one who in every respect has been tested as we are, yet without sin. 16Leus therefore approach the throne of grace with boldness, so that we may receivmercy and find grace to help in time of need.
