Hebrews 2:5-9
Hebrews 2:5-9
For it was not to angels that God subjected the world to come, of which we are speaking. It has been testified somewhere, “What is man, that you are mindful of him, or the son of man, that you care for him? You made him for a little while lower than the angels; you have crowned him with glory and honor, putting everything in subjection under his feet.” Now in putting everything in subjection to him, he left nothing outside his control. At present, we do not yet see everything in subjection to him. But we see him who for a little while was made lower than the angels, namely Jesus, crowned with glory and honor because of the suffering of death, so that by the grace of God he might taste death for everyone.
Romans 5:17
For if, because of one man’s trespass, death reigned through that one man, much more will those who receive the abundance of grace and the free gift of righteousness reign in life through the one man Jesus Christ.
Man’s exaltation was Christ’s humiliation.
In Christ, God’s original intention and ultimate intention is achieved.
You can experience salvation in a moment, but you’ll spend a lifetime discovering its significance.
God didn’t just save you FROM, He saved you FOR.
