Jesus is faithful, worthy of great honor, and sovereign.  Moses was faithful as a servant in God's house, but Messiah is faithful as a Son over God's house.

Hebrews 3: 2-6 provides three attributes about Jesus.  Jesus is an apostle and high priest.  He is worthy of great honor.  Jesus is faithful.  He gives us the hope and courage and a means of finding our standing in God's house.

This week we talked about fixing our thoughts on Jesus.  This passage urges us to strive to focus on Him and be like Him.  If we want to grow in own spirit, we need to walk in His steps.  If you are a Christian, you have been called by God and your soul saved by your faith in Jesus Christ.

1John was written to the saints, the saved people.  The purpose was to call believers to fellowship with God and other believers.  How do we fellowship?  By loving one another.  If you are Christ love one another.  John repeats the commandment we were given, and in that obedience, we will find joy, rest and peace.

Because of His Incarnation, Jesus takes actions that demonstrate His superiority to angels.  He suffered death so that by the grace of God he might taste death for everyone-Hebrews 2:9.  He defeated the devil and served as the atonement for the sins of the people.  Because of Jesus suffering, he is able to aid the those who are tempted.

We as Christians have eye witness accounts according to scripture that Jesus died, was buried, and was raised on the third day.  He appeared not only to the disciples  but also to more than five hundred brethren.  He explained to them the prophets and how God's word foretold his coming.   The whole Old Testament points toward Christ's life, death and resurrection.  When we receive the gospel in our hearts, we can fully submit to Him.  He is life changing, and today by the grace of God we can submit to salvation and the Lordship of Jesus Christ.

We must always pay close attention to avoid walking away from the faith and becoming a "Charles Templeton".  The Old Covenant Law was spoken through angels and was certain.  Binding laws with just penalties and punishments were spoken through Moses, angels, and prophets.  The New Covenant message of salvation, spoken through the Lord, is even more certain.  It was confirmed by the apostles and eye witnesses.  We must cling to Jesus to avoid drifting.

There are two resons we must pay close attention to the gospel so we do not drift away.  We need to avoid docternal drift, moral drift, and practical drift.  Many either fall away or never were in the faith.  Those who truly receive the Word, perservere in their hearts and bring forth fruit in their lives.  Although faith and repentance are gracious gifts of God-however that is to be understood-an individual must himself act in repentance and faith to be saved, for Jesus commanded repentance and belief.

Pastor Allen Reger

When God brought Jesus into the world he said, "Let all God's angels worship him".  God made Jesus superior to the angels.  He is superior because He is the Son of God, the angels worship Him, and the angels serve Him.  We are reminded that angels are ministering spirits, but Jesus' authority is established over ALL of creation.

Pastor Allen Reger

Jesus is supreme because He fulfills three roles as the Son of God.  Jesus is the final revelation by God.  He is the full representation of God.  He is also the finished redeemer with God.  Jesus is the heir of the universe and divine by nature.  He has the radiance of God's glory and is an exact representation of His being.  Jesus shines all that is God.  After he was crucified and raised to purify sin, he sat down at the right hand of God.  In the old testament God spoke through Moses and the prophets, in the final days God spoke through His Son.
