Hebrews 1-3:6 Jesus is best!

1:1-4 Statements about Christ:

God speaks through Him

He was appointed heir of all things by the Father

Through Him God made the universe

He is the radiance of God's glory

He is the exact representation of His being

He sustains all things by His powerful word

He provided purification for sins

He sat at the right hand of the Majesty in heaven.

 

Jesus is proved to be superior:

He is the Father's Son

God demands we worship Him

His throne will last forever

He has been set above His companions

His years will never end

Jesus is better than any angel!

2:1-4. If Jesus is so important, we need to stay close to Him. His message is binding and we will receive punishment if we drift from it.

We were created to be willing subjects before Jesus. Jesus took that path humbling Himself so that we could be reconciled to Him.

As Christians, we are to fix our eyes on Jesus - apostle and High Priest.

Jesus is better than Moses - Jesus was faithful to the One who appointed Him, He built the house, He is son of the house,
