Hebrews 1:1-4
Holy Bible. New Living Translation copyright © 1996, 2004 by Tyndale Charitable Trust.

Jesus Christ Is God’s Son

1 Long ago God spoke many times and in many ways to our ancestors through the prophets. 2 And now in these final days, he has spoken to us through his Son. God promised everything to the Son as an inheritance, and through the Son he created the universe. 3 The Son radiates God’s own glory and expresses the very character of God, and he sustains everything by the mighty power of his command. When he had cleansed us from our sins, he sat down in the place of honor at the right hand of the majestic God in heaven. 4 This shows that the Son is far greater than the angels, just as the name God gave him is greater than their names.


We live in a society surrounded by references to quality. There is great emphasis on the quality of the products on which we are willing to spend our hard earned income. I can remember as a child, shopping for toys, if it said ‘Made in China’, it was not going to last very long. Low quality. When we buy our cars, quality … service record … resale value … are the emphasis and why the American auto industry almost went bankrupt.

Throughout the book of Hebrews, we find references to the superiority of Christ. He is better than the angels … Moses … the Levitical priesthood. He offers a better covenant … sanctuary … sacrifice. He provides the power to live a better life.

Looking for quality in your spiritual life? There is nothing better than Jesus Christ!
