Hebrews 1:12 - Prayer Tents

Hebrews 1

Jesus Christ Is God’s Son

1Long ago God spoke many times and in many ways to our ancestors through the prophets.G2316G4181G2532G4187G2980G3819G3962G1722G43962And 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.G2980G1909G5130G2078G2250G2980G2254G1722G5207G3739G5087G2818G3956G1223G3739G2532G4160G1653The 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.G3739G5607G541G1391G2532G5481G846G5287G5037G5342G3956G4487G846G1411G4160G2512G1223G1438G4160G2512G2257G266G2523G1722G1188G3172G1722G53084This shows that the Son is far greater than the angels, just as the name God gave him is greater than their names.G1096G5118G2909G32G3745G2816G1313G3686G3844G846

The Son Is Greater Than the Angels

5For God never said to any angel what he said to Jesus: "You are my Son. Today I have become your Father

." God also said, "I will be his Father, and he will be my Son."G1063G5101G32G2036G4218G4771G1488G3450G5207G4594G1080G1473G1080G4571G2532G3825G1473G2071G1519G846G3962G2532G846G2071G1519G3427G52076And when he brought his supreme Son into the world, God said

, "Let all of God's angels worship him."G1161G3825G3752G1521G4416G1519G3625G3004G2532G4352G3956G32G2316G4352G8467Regarding the angels, he says, "He sends his angels like the winds, his servants like flames of fire."

G2532G4314G3303G32G3004G4160G846G32G4151G2532G846G3011G5395G44428But to the Son he says, "Your throne, O God, endures forever and ever. You rule with a scepter of justice.G1161G4314G5207G4675G2362G2316G1519G165G165G4464G2118G4464G4675G9329You love justice and hate evil. Therefore, O God, your God has anointed you, pouring out the oil of joy on you more than on anyone else."

G25G1343G2532G3404G458G1223G5124G2316G4675G2316G5548G4571G1637G20G3844G4675G335310He also says to the Son, "In the beginning, Lord, you laid the foundation of the earth and made the heavens with your hands.G2532G4771G2962G2596G746G2311G1093G2532G3772G1526G2041G4675G549511They will perish, but you remain forever. They will wear out like old clothing.G846G622G1161G4771G1265G2532G3956G3822G5613G244012You will fold them up like a cloak and discard them like old clothing. But you are always the same; you will live forever."

G2532G5616G4018G1667G846G1667G2532G236G1161G4771G1488G846G2532G4675G2094G1587G3756G158713And God never said to any of the angels, "Sit in the place of honor at my right hand until I humble your enemies, making them a footstool under your feet."

G1161G4314G5101G32G2046G4218G2521G1537G3450G1188G302G2193G5087G4675G2190G4675G5286G422814Therefore, angels are only servants—spirits sent to care for people who will inherit salvation.G1526G3780G3956G3010G4151G649G1519G1248G1223G3195G2816G4991
