world to come, about which we are speaking.

But there is a place where someone has  testified:

“What is man that You are mindful of Him, the

son of man that You care for him?

You made him a little lower than the angels;

You crowned him with glory and honor

and put everything under his feet.”

In putting everything under him, God left

nothing that is not subject to him.

Yet at present we do not see everything

subject to him. But we see Jesus, Who was made

a little lower than the angels, now crowned

with glory and honor because He suffered death,

so that by the grace of God He might taste death

for everyone.

In bringing many sons to glory, it was fitting that

God, for Whom and through Whom everything

exists, should make the author of their salvation

perfect through suffering. Both the One Who makes

men holy and those who are made holy are from

the same family. So Jesus is not ashamed to call

them brothers.

He says,

“I will declare Your name to My brothers.

In the presence of the congregation I will sing

Your praises.”

And again,

“I will put my trust in Him.”

And again He says,

“Here am I, and the children God has given Me.”

Since the children have flesh and blood,

He too shared in their humanity so that by

His death He might destroy him who holds

the power of death- that is, the devil-

and free those who all their lives were held in

slavery by their fear of death. For surely

it is not angels He helps, but Abraham’s descendants.

For this reason He had to be made like His brothers

in every way, in order that he might become a

merciful and faithful high priest in service to God,

and that He might make atonement for the sins of

the people. Because He Himself suffered when He was

tempted, He is able to help those who are being tempted.

(Hebrews 2.5-18).

HALLELUJAH! THANK YOU LORD JESUS FOREVERMORE!

the exact representation of His being,

sustaining all things by His powerful word.

After He had provided purification for sins,

He sat down at the right hand of the Majesty

in heaven. So he became as much superior to

the angels as the name He has inherited is

superior to theirs.

For to which of the angels did God ever say,

“You are My Son;

today I have become Your Father”?

Or again,

“I will be His Father, and He will be My Son”?

And again, when God Brings His firstborn into

the world, He says,

“Let all God’s angels worship Him.”

In speaking of the angels He says,

“He makes His angels winds,

His servants flames of fire.”

But about the Son He says,

“Your throne, O God, will last for

ever and ever,

and righteousness will be the

scepter of Your kingdom.

You have loved righteousness and

hated wickedness;

therefore God, Your God, has

set You above Your companions

by anointing You with the oil of joy.”

(Hebrews 1.3-9).

HALLELUJAH! THANK YOU LORD JESUS FOREVERMORE!

need for life and godliness through our

knowledge of Him Who called us by His

own  glory and goodness. Through these

He has given us His very great and

precious promises, so that through them

you may participate in the divine nature

and escape the corruption in the world

caused by evil desires.

For this reason, make every effort to add

to your faith goodness, and to goodness,

knowledge; and to knowledge, self-control;

and to self-control, perseverance; and to

perseverance, godliness; and to godliness,

brotherly kindness; and to brotherly kindness,

love.

For if you possess these qualities in

increasing measure, they will keep

you from being ineffective and

unproductive in your knowledge of our

Lord Jesus Christ.

But if anyone does not have them, 

he is nearsighted and blind,

and  has forgotten that he has been 

cleansed from  past sins.

(II. Peter 1.3-9).

HALLELUJAH! THANK YOU LORD JESUS FOREVERMORE!

whatever gift he has received to serve others, faithfully administering

God’s grace in its various forms.

If anyone speaks, he should do it as one speaking the very words of God.

If anyone serves, he should do it with the strength God provides, so that

in all things God may be praised through Jesus Christ. To Him be the glory

and the power for ever and ever. Amen!
