The Holiest of All By Andrew Murray

with Melchizedek that the fulness of power and blessing comes,
the blessing that abideth continually. It is as the soul no
longer ever again seeks the foundation, but resting on it and it
alone, is built up into Christ Jesus, the perfected and exalted
One, that it will be delivered from its feebleness, and know the
power of the heavenly life. The more we consider and adore
our blessed King-Priest, our Melchizedek, the stronger will our
confidence become that from His throne in heaven He will, in
divine power, Himself apply to us all the blessed fruits of His
atonement, and make a life in God s presence and nearness our
daily experience.
7. When He had effected the cleansing of our sins God be praised for our Aaron!
Glory be to the Lamb that was /He slain sat down on the right hand of the Majesty on high
!
Goaf be praised for our Melchizedek ! Glory to the Lamb in the midst of the throne ! The Holiest
is now opened, with our great High Priest to bring us in and keep us there.
2. The effecting the cleansing of sins by Jesus preceded the sitting on the throne. But the
application in us in power follows. This is the reason why we are here first taught about the
High Priest in heaven, then in chap. viii. about the heavenly sanctuary, and after that in chap. ix.
about the power of the blood in heaven, and from heaven in us. It is only in the knowledge of
Jesus in heaven we shall know the full power of the cleansing blood.
3. Wherefore, holy brethren, partakers of a heavenly calling, consider Jesus on the throne in
heaven!
The worship and the fellowship of a heavenly Christ makes heavenly Christians.
