Clarification – oops

In an earlier post I mixed up 2 different verses from the Bible and paraphrased them. Later I realized I should have split them up. While both are true and what I posted is true they are really 2 separate Bible books and verses.

The 1st part of what I quoted is from Paul's letter number 2 to Timothy verse 1:12. The apostle Paul is making it clear to Timothy that is not what we believe but "whom we believe". It is a personal attachment between Christ and the believer that saves. Knowing things in your head is not enough as is a personal connection.

The 2nd verse would be in Hebrews 7:25. It is speaking of Christ as our high priest and representative in the heavens. Because of this he is able to perform as our high priest and save.
