HEBREWS 1
“God has spoken to us!” What a tremendous statement, and what a great responsibility it brings to you if you have heard His voice through His Word: “See that you do not refuse Him who speaks” (12:25). What you do with the Word of God determines what you will enjoy of God’s will and claim of your inheritance.
Jesus Christ is the Father’s last word. In Him, divine revelation is seen and heard in its fullness; and in Him, God’s revelation is complete. When we see Him, we see the Father (John 14:1–11). Through Christ, we understand where everything came from, where it is going, what keeps it going, and why it is here.
We also understand what He has done for us. He died for us! Today He is enthroned in glory, ministering to us and for us (13:20–21). He wants to mature us and teach us how to walk by faith. One day He will defeat all His enemies and bring in His righteous kingdom.
With a Savior like that, why look for a substitute?

Jesus is greater than the angels because He is the eternal Son of God Whom the angels worship and serve. Angels serve God’s people (Heb. 1:14), even though we may not recognize them (
“Other men had the threads of truth; but Christ took the threads, and wove them into a glorious robe, put it on, and came forth clothed with every truth of God.”
