Jesus, The Great High Priest


  "Jesus answered, 'I am the way and the truth and the life. 
No one comes to the Father except through me.'" (John 14:6)



"As, when king Uzziah would offer incense without a priest, God was angry with him, and struck him with leprosy (II Chron. 26:20); so, when we come to God, without Christ, in the hope of his mediation, we offer up incense without a priest; and what can we expect but to meet with rebukes..."

From Thomas Watson in A BODY OF PRACTICAL DIVINITY
