Hebrews 7:25–Jesus Is Able To Save

Hebrews 7:25–"Consequently, He is able to save to the uttermost those who draw near to God through Him, since He always lives to make intercession for them."

The book of Hebrews is brimming with theology of the highest measure.  Much of the book deals with the concept of Jesus as High Priest who, having offered Himself as a perfect sacrifice, now sits at the right hand of the throne of God making intercession for those who draw to Him in faith.  That is the gist and girth of this verse, that Jesus does save those who draw near to God through Him.  Moreover, Jesus is able to do this by virtue of His identity as the Christ, the Savior of the world who died as a sacrificial atonement.  For this reason we should always praise Jesus' name for who He is and what He does!
