​“We have such a high priest, one who is seated at the right hand of the throne of the Majesty in the heavens, a minister in the sanctuary and the true tent that the Lord, and not any mortal, has set up. For every high priest is appointed to offer gifts and sacrifices; hence it is necessary for this priest also to have something to offer.”
​
   -   First Reading, Hebrews 7: 25 - 8:6

​​The world has seen many religions and priests, but it doesn’t even remember their names, and nothing is left of them. People used to throw their hands up in prayer and preach passionate sermons, but no one really cares about them any longer. It is easy to proclaim a new religion now and we see them all the time, the new gods, new ideologies, new systems. They don’t last long and fall into oblivion like many before. Jesus Christ is the only true priest of the One God. Jesus Christ is not only the priest but also the sacrifice. His sacrifice lasts and will continue as long as we need to be rescued from death. When you see the priest at the altar celebrating the Holy Mass think of Jesus Christ who is our eternal Priest.
