The Holiest of All by Andrew Murray eBook & audio book

Holiest of All: Meditations on the Book of Hebrews "What teaching is needed to give health and vigor to the Christian life in order that, through all adverse circumstances, it may hold fast from the beginning, firm until the end? The teaching of the epistle of Hebrews is the divine answer to [this question]. In every possible way, it sets before us the truth that only the full and perfect knowledge of who Christ is and what He does for us can bring us to a full and perfect Christian life."

the flesh is. He knows what it costs to conquer it, and how<br />

little we are able to do it. He lives in heaven, able to succour<br />

us ; sympathising with our weaknesses ; bearing gently with<br />

the ignorant and erring; a High Priest on the throne, that we<br />

may boldly draw nigh to find grace for timely help. He lives<br />

in heaven and in our heart, to impart to us His own spirit <strong>of</strong><br />

obedience, so that His priesthood may bring us into the full<br />

enjoyment <strong>of</strong> all He Himself has and is.<br />

7. Heard for His godly fear. Hoiu it becomes me then to pray in humble, holy reuerence,<br />

that I may pray in His spirit, and be heard too for His godly fear. This was the very spirit <strong>of</strong> His<br />

prayer and obedience.<br />

2. He learned obedience through suflfering. Learn to looh upon and to welcome all<br />

suffering as God's message to teach obedience.<br />

3. He learned obedience: This was the path in which Christ was trained for His priesthood.<br />

This is the spirit and the power that filled Him for the throne <strong>of</strong> glory ; the spirit and the<br />

power which alone can lift us there ; the spirit and the power which our great High Priest can impart<br />

to us. Obedience is <strong>of</strong> the very essence <strong>of</strong> salvation. Whether we looh at Christ being<br />

perfected personally, or at the merit that gaue His death its value and saving power, or at the<br />

work wrought in us— obedience, the entrance into the will <strong>of</strong> God, is the very essence <strong>of</strong><br />

salvation.<br />

4. He learned obedience. Jesus was obedience embodied, obedience incarnate, I have only<br />

as much <strong>of</strong> Jesus in me as I have <strong>of</strong> the spirit <strong>of</strong> obedience.
