Devotional: Hebrews 2:5-13

Today’s passage: Hebrews 2:5-13

Helpful thoughts:

  • It is right for us to me amazed by God’s love toward mankind!
    • God did not give dominion over the earth to angels, but to man.
    • God did not provide a sacrifice to redeem fallen angels, Christ came to redeem sinful man.
    • God will not put all things under angels’ feet, but Christ’s (The God-Man), who was made “lower than the angels” to save us from our sin.
  • God’s perfect justice required the sufferings of Jesus.  Jesus tasted death on our behalf. (Romans 3:26)
  • Jesus did not call the disciples (Or His followers) “brothers” or “brethren” until after the resurrection (Matthew 28:10).  After His death, burial and resurrection all the work had been done and vindicated which “sanctified” or set apart His people and united us to Him.
    • We have been set apart from our sin, and set apart to service!

Questions to consider:

  1. How does the beginning of verse 10 remind us of God’s place in the universe?  Does He exist for us or do we exist for Him?  Is there a single person on earth who will not answer to Him?  What does the world need to hear?
  2. How does a passage like this help us not to take the Gospel for granted?  What did Christ go through for our salvation and for the glory of God?
  3. How could this great explanation of God’s love given to us stir up in us a love for Him and a desire and ability to show love to others?
