VIII. MAIN BODY:
A. Perfection is not attainable under the Law
"Now if perfection (a perfect fellowship between God and the worshiper) had been attainable by the Levitical priesthood—for under it the people were given the Law"
Perfection means completion, or fulfilment of the plan and purpose of God. GOD's Plan was brought to completion and fulfilment only in the LORD JESUS CHRIST.
Hebrews 7:18-19 (Amplified Bible)
7:18 So a previous physical regulation and command is cancelled because of its weakness and ineffectiveness and uselessness—
7:19 For the Law never made anything perfect—but instead a better hope is introduced through which we [now] come close to God.
Hebrews 8:7 (Amplified Bible)
8:7 For if that first covenant had been without defect, there would have been no room for another one or an attempt to institute another one.
Galatians 2:21 (Amplified Bible)
2:21 [Therefore, I do not treat God’s gracious gift as something of minor importance and defeat its very purpose]; I do not set aside and invalidate and frustrate and nullify the grace (unmerited favor) of God. For if justification (righteousness, acquittal from guilt) comes through [observing the ritual of] the Law, then Christ (the Messiah) died groundlessly and to no purpose and in vain. [His death was then wholly superfluous.]
B. Perfection in the order of Melchizedek
"why was it further necessary that there should arise another and different kind of Priest, one after the order of Melchizedek, rather than one appointed after the order and rank of Aaron?"
Hebrews 6:20 (Amplified Bible)
6:20 Where Jesus has entered in for us [in advance], a Forerunner having become a High Priest forever after the order (with the rank) of Melchizedek.
Psalms 110:4 (Amplified Bible)
110:4 The Lord has sworn and will not revoke or change it: You are a priest forever, after the manner and order of Melchizedek.
Hebrews 5:6 (Amplified Bible)
5:6 As He says also in another place, You are a Priest [appointed] forever after the order (with the rank) of Melchizedek.
IX. CONCLUSION:
I am perfect in everything thru CHRIST's Grace. GOD has put together, provided me everything I need to please Him. I give the LORD JESUS CHRIST the most pleasure by living out His plans for me on the earth.
Hebrews 13:21 (The Message)
13:21 Now put you together, provide you with everything you need to please him, Make us into what gives him most pleasure, by means of the sacrifice of Jesus, the Messiah. All glory to Jesus forever and always! Oh, yes, yes, yes.
