Eternal Scars : The Great High Priest After The Order Of Melchizedek And Th
$19.98
The Lord has Sworn and Will Not Change His Mind: “You Are a Priest Forever After the Order of Melchizedek.” (Psalm 110:4) A mysterious passage. A radical truth. The author of the book of Hebrews proclaims, “This hope we have as an anchor of the soul, a hope both sure and steadfast and one which enters within the veil, where Jesus has entered as a forerunner for us, having become a high priest forever according to the order of Melchizedek” (Hebrews 6:9-10). Why is this hope such an anchor of the soul? And why is understanding the pre-eminent Priest after the “order of Melchizedek” of unparalleled significance in the life of the believer? Because wrapped in this ministry of the Messiah is your eternal salvation and your eternal relationship with Jesus Christ. You will never know your Lord in any other way. He will always be the Great High Priest. The reformer Martin Luther went so far as to state: “There is a great and rich fountain in this verse which speaks of Christ as ‘a Priest forever’ or ‘an eternal Priest’; indeed, it is a treasure, the source of all Christian doctrine, understanding,wisdom, and comfort. There is no single passage in Scripture which expresses this so richly or completely.” When Jesus was raised from the dead, all was restored except His scars from the cross. These Eternal Scars proclaim Him as the Great High Priest after the order of Melchizedek. This book explores the “story behind the scars” and the rich significance of understanding Jesus as our eternal High Priest.

Jesus Study Guide (Student/Study Guide)
$12.99In this six-session video Bible study (DVD/digital downloads sold separately), bestselling author Max Lucado explores the life and character of Jesus, helping participants become more familiar with the man at the center of the greatest story ever told. As Max explains in this study, for thirty-three years Jesus felt everything that we have ever felt: weakness, weariness, rejections. He got colds. His feelings got hurt. His feet grew tired. His head ached.
To think of Jesus in such terms almost seems irreverent. It is much easier to keep the humanity out of the incarnation. Clean up the manure from around the manger. Wipe the sweat out of his eyes. Pretend he never snored or hit his thumb with a hammer. There is something about keeping Jesus divine that keeps him distant, packaged, and predictable.
But we have to remember that by Jesus becoming human, God made it possible for us to see him and hear his voice. If we want to know what matters to God, all we need to do is look in the Bible to see what matters to Jesus. If we want to know what God is doing in our world, we need only ponder the words of Jesus. By learning more about the person Jesus was and is, we come to understand more clearly the people we were created to be.
Jesus will inspire group members to spend time at the foot of the cross and search the heart of the one who would rather die for them than live without them.
Designed for use with the Jesus Video Study (sold separately).
