In Hebrews Chapter 1, Paul addresses Jewish Believers regarding the deity of Jesus Christ. By observing some of His attributes, Paul outlines God’s plan for reconciling God with man. As we examine these, may God instill within us a deep sense of personal gratitude and humility for the depths to which Christ lowered Himself to know us personally. All things were made by Him and for Him, including you and me.
V2 - He is our Creator
“by whom also he made the worlds;”
V3 - He is our Sustainer
“upholding all things by the word of his power,”
V4a - He is our Redeemer
“he had by himself purged our sins,”
V4b - He is our Mediator
“sat down on the right hand of the Majesty on high;”
LESSON - He made us for Himself. He sustained us until we became followers of Him. He provided the means by which we could come to Him. He now serves as our mediator before The Father, making petition on our behalf. Col. 1:17, 20 “And he is before all things, and BY HIM all things consist. And, having made peace through the blood of his cross, BY HIM to reconcile all things unto himself; BY HIM, I say, whether they be things in earth, or things in heaven.”
