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."

<strong>The</strong>se are indeed the spiritual blessings in the heavenlies<br />

with which God hath blessed us in Christ and which, as High<br />

Priest, Christ dispenses. He brings us to the Father, and we<br />

learn to know that He blesses and keeps us. In Him, the Son,<br />

God's face shines upon us, and the grace <strong>of</strong> our Lord Jesus<br />

Christ is our portion. In Him God lifts up His countenance<br />

upon us, and, <strong>by</strong> the Holy Spirit, gives His peace unto our<br />

hearts.<br />

Christ the High Priest makes every part <strong>of</strong> this blessing<br />

a divine reality, a living experience in the power <strong>of</strong> a life that<br />

abides continually.<br />

Christ gives us the blessing, we give Him the tithes. <strong>The</strong><br />

Our<br />

place all that we have at His disposal, the more we in very deed<br />

forsake all for His sake, the richer will our experience be <strong>of</strong> the<br />

fulness and the power which our High Priest can bless.<br />

Without dispute the less is blessed <strong>of</strong> the better.<br />

This is<br />

<strong>The</strong> more we know <strong>of</strong> that better name which<br />

Jesus has received, and have our hearts filled<br />

with His glory, the<br />

lower we shall bow, the less we shall become in our own eyes ;<br />

and there<strong>by</strong> the fitter and the more willing to be blessed.<br />

And the more ready, too, to render Him not only the tithes, but<br />

the whole <strong>of</strong> all we are and possess, x'\s in our spiritual life<br />

this tw<strong>of</strong>old relation to our great High Priest is maintained,<br />

and a deep faith and dependence on His divine fulness <strong>of</strong><br />

blessing is cultivated, along with an absolute surrender to His<br />

disposal and service, the mighty power <strong>of</strong> His priesthood will<br />

be revealed in our hearts. And we shall see with ever-increas-
