Through the Bible with Les Feldick
LESSON 1 * PART 3 * BOOK 46
Hebrews 1:1-10
It’s amazing how simple the Word of God really is. Hebrews 1:2a
So we’re well acquainted to what it is to be an heir, but you see the Triune God again, the Father, Son, and the Spirit, have in unison made the Son the Heir of everything. Verse 5:
Philippians 2:5
"Let this mind be in you, which was also in Christ Jesus: 6. Who, being in the form of God,…" Remember what the Scripture says in John 1:1?
John 1:1
"In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God." So this same Jesus, the Word in John 1:2, the Christ:
Philippians 2:6-7
Now verse 8:
Philippians 2:8
"And being found in fashion as a man, he humbled himself, (Rome didn’t humble Him, the Jewish leaders didn’t humble Him, but rather He humbled Himself,) and became obedient unto death, even the death of the cross."
Well was that in agreement in the mind of Christ? 9. Wherefore (because of His total obedience to the plan of the Triune God,) God also hath highly exalted him,…" God Himself has exalted Him.
Philippians 2:9b
Philippians 2:10a
"That at the name of Jesus every knee…" Philippians 2:10-11
11. And that every tongue should confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father."
We as believers are also called heirs, and we’ll find that in Romans chapter 8. Romans 8:16-17a
"The Spirit itself beareth witness with our spirit, that we are the children of God: (you don’t have to wonder if you are one of God’s children if you have believed Paul’s Gospel in your heart for Salvation) 17. And if children, then heirs; (just like in an earthly family. So we’re) heirs of God, and joint-heirs with Christ;…"
Now let’s come back to Hebrews again to chapter 1. So God:
Hebrews 1:2
"Hath in these last days spoken unto us by his Son, (we covered the last part of the verse in our first program) whom he hath appointed heir of all things, by whom also he made the worlds;" Our Lord Jesus Christ created everything! Now let’s move on into verse 3. Hebrews 1:3a
"Who (speaking of Son) being the brightness of his glory,…"
Whose glory? The Godhead. The whole Triune God! Here is just that little window in Matthew chapter 17.
Matthew 17:1-2
Now coming back to Hebrews chapter 1. Hebrews 1:3a
Now I think sometimes people get the wrong idea from Genesis where it says, "God created man in His image." Now you want to remember at the time of the creation, God had never appeared in human form so far as we know from Scripture. In His mind, will, and emotion." That’s where Adam was in God’s image.
It’s invisible. God the Spirit also has mind, will and emotions. And we know God the Son has mind, will, and emotions. So man was literally created an invisible creation, patterned after the invisible Spirit God. But in order for man to function in creation, we know God put the invisible man into a visible body.
"Matter, time, and space!" So God took this invisible part of us and placed it in a body. Hebrews 1:3a
"(The Son) Who being the brightness of his glory, and the express image of his person, and upholding all things by the word of his power,…"
Everything in the universe is held together by the power of the Word of Christ! Now reading on in verse 3. Hebrews 1:3b
On the cross, and in resurrection power. Hebrews 1:5
"For unto which of the angels said he (God) at any time, Thou art my Son, this day have I begotten thee?" That’s never been spoken to anybody but the Son. We have to realize and understand that all the power of the Godhead was released when God raised Christ from the dead. And let’s just begin at verse 7.
Psalm 2:7
"I will declare the decree: the LORD hath said unto me, Thou art my Son; this day have I begotten thee." Let’s go to Acts, chapter 13, and that’s where we have to let Scripture speak. God hath fulfilled the same unto us their children, in that he hath raised up Jesus again; as it is also written in the second psalm, Thou art my Son, this day have I begotten thee." Now here is where we get the Scriptural definition of the only begotten Son of God.
Acts 13:34
The only begotten Son was when He was raised from the dead.
Romans 1:3-4
"Concerning his Son Jesus Christ our Lord, which was made of the seed of David according to the flesh; (here it comes in verse 4). And declared to be the Son of God with power according to the spirit of holiness, (and how was that power executed?) by the resurrection from the dead:"
Always remember when Paul speaks of the power of God unto Salvation, what is he referring to? The power of His resurrection! Romans 10:9
"That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved.
