Hebrews 1: The Superiority of Christ
The Superiority of Christ
Hebrews 1 is about the supremacy of Christ Jesus. It paints a wonderful picture of how He is superior to the angels because of His redemptive work on the cross. Jesus is the exact representation of the Father and was sent to communicate to us the true nature of God. By understanding who Jesus is and what He said, we can know the fullness of God's nature and character.

Jesus is the Expression of God's Love Toward Us (Hebrews 1:1-2)
I was watching a documentary about the deepest parts of the sea. Scientists were studying the life that existed at incredible depths.

Jesus Helps us to Understand God's Nature (Hebrews 1:1-2)
One of the main stumbling points for both Christians and non-believers is reconciling the differences between their view of God in the Old Testament and their idea of who Jesus is in the New. These views can appear to contradict each other unless we understand this important truth: the Old…

Mankind Grew Out of God's Desire for a Family (Hebrews 1:3)

Our Sins are Completely and Eternally Forgiven (Hebrews 1:3)
As humans we still sin. We struggle with it and feel guilty because of it. As such, we rationalize that our sin is an issue with God. This perspective is what fuels this notion that God is upset with us because of sin. Many feel that God is waiting for…
