For Us

Hebrews 9:24 KJV
For Christ is not entered into the holy places made with hands, which are the figures of the true; but into heaven itself, now to appear in the presence of God for us:

The first thought that struck me is how much more there is to the Word of God than is found in the four gospels. Those three and one half years are first of all foretold in the pages of the Old Testament and then built upon in the New. What a powerful and wonderful gift is the Word of God.

Now the Bible says Christ appears in the presence of God. His service on earth through, His work being finished, He is now in the presence (the Bible says in other places at the right hand of the Father) and the Word says He appears there for us.

I can't imagine a more gracious message.
He left heaven for us
He died at Calvary for us
He appears in the presence of God for us and
He ever liveth to make intercession to God for us
Rejoice!
