Bible Study For 8/23/2014
Study of the Book of Hebrews Chapter 1 (Jesus) Bible Study
[Note to Blog Readers: Expositor Notes are In Bold Italic Font]
Many Churches and many souls are heading for hell, due to the fact that they do not want to teach, or Preach on the Cross. They would rather call it old fashion and cover it and say that the Cross is the thing of the past. The Churches is changing to suit the sins of the world and to suit the Churches sins, so they don't offend no one. I love what Gaberial Swaggart had said in his Sermon last Sunday night, "I am offender and looking for toes to step on and its going to hurt". Friends, without the Cross in your life, there is no Life in Heaven. If Jesus Christ didn't die on the Cross for your sins, you then wouldn't be able to make it to Heaven. Thank God for the New Covenant. The only thing that the Mosaic Law does, is reveal's peoples sins, it does not offer up Salvation, only leads to hell. There was Grace offered up back then, Thank God for what His Son did for us at Calvary, Amen? The Holy Spirit will not Work in the Lives of those who is living in the bondage's of sin and to those who rejects the Cross, they will not be Saved, unless they repent to God and turn away from that foolishness and stops what they are saying and doing. They are leading others to hell by false doctrine, which is produced by Satan. Many Churches are allowing Satan to take over the Church Services, by Covering the Cross and for allowing demonic music into the Church services. I have seen a video posting, not to long ago of an youth conference on Facebook. They had the lights turned down, but had stage lighting on and house lights on in the back of the auditorium. People on the stage was singing Praise songs, but in Rock, slash, rap beats to it, with Jesus slap't to it. They had the audience waving their hands up and down, like they were trying to slap flies, in mid air and had heads bobbing up and down, almost head banging. That surely will give a person a neck injury for sure. I thought I was watching a rock concert. If the Church your going to is allowing this craziness into Church Worship?, if the music in your Church sounds like the world?, then it is of the world and not of God. Worship music is to be played to Worship God, to Honor God and to Edify God and be Praise Worthy. Rock, Rap, Metal, Contemporary music, is not Christian and does not Glorify God.It demonic and it allow's demonic spirits to be present. We need to get back to the Cross, we need to continue to Preach on the Cross and about what Jesus Christ did for us on that Cross, we need to Edify, Glorify and continue to giving Him Praises once again, and repent and turn away from sin and the world, so we can be Saved. Sin will keep you out of Heaven, rejecting the Cross, also rejects Jesus Christ and Him Crucified and will keep the Preachers from going to Heaven, or just loose some rewards in Heaven. I am fired up, Glory to God. Lets get started with this study.
Hebrews 1:1-14 (KJV)
1 God, Who at sundry times and in divers manners (refers to the many and varied ways) spoke in time past unto the fathers by the Prophets (refers to Old Testament Times), 2 Has in these last days (the dispensation of Grace, which is the Church Age) spoken unto us by His Son (speaks of the Incarnation), Whom He has appointed Heir of all things (through the means of the Cross), by Whom also He made the worlds (proclaims His Deity, as the previous phrase of Him being the “Heir of all things” proclaims His Humanity); 3 Who being the brightness of His Glory (the radiance of God’s Glory), and the express Image of His Person (the exact reproduction), and upholding all things by the Word of His Power (carries the meaning of Jesus not only sustaining the weight of the universe, but also maintaining its coherence and carrying on its development), when He had by Himself purged our sins (which He did at the Cross, dealing with sin regarding its cause, its power, and its guilt), sat down on the Right Hand of the Majesty on high (speaks of the Finished Work of Christ, and that the Sacrifice was accepted by the Father);

ANGELS
4 Being made so much better than the Angels (He was better than the Angels, which refers to the Incarnation, the price paid at Calvary [the reason for the Incarnation], and then His Exaltation as Saviour; as God, Jesus has always been greater than the Angels, but this is speaking of Him here as man), as He has by inheritance obtained a more excellent Name than they. (This refers to what Christ did at the Cross, with the present result being that the inheritance is in His permanent possession.) 5 For unto which of the Angels said He (God the Father) at any time, You are My Son (Son of God), this day have I begotten You? (This speaks of the Incarnation. God never said such of Angels, only of His Son [Ps. 2:7].) And again, I will be to Him a Father, and He shall be to Me a Son? (When uttered, referred to the future tense, but now is past tense. All had to do with Redemption, and all for you and me.) 6 And again, when He (God the Father) brought in the Firstbegotten into the world (refers to Jesus being born of the Virgin Mary), He said, And let all the Angels of God worship Him. (The idea is only Deity can be worshiped. Jesus is God!) 7 And of the Angels He said, Who makes His Angels spirits (the emphasis upon the variableness of the Angelic nature), and His Ministers a flame of fire. (This does not speak of Preachers, as some have suggested, but continues to address itself to Angels.) 8 But unto the Son He said, Your Throne, O God, is for ever and ever (Thrones typify dominion, which in this case can only be occupied by Deity): a sceptre of Righteousness is the sceptre of Your Kingdom (totally unlike any other Kingdom that has ever existed, and was made possible by the Cross). 9 You have loved Righteousness, and hated iniquity (proclaims the True Man, Christ Jesus); therefore God, even Your God, has anointed You with the oil of gladness above Your fellows (refers to the Holy Spirit). 10 And, You, Lord, in the beginning have laid the foundation of the earth (proclaims Jesus the Messiah as the Creator as well!); and the Heavens are the Works of Your Hands (presents the fact that only Deity could do such a thing): 11 They shall perish (means to wax old as a garment); but You remain (Christ is exalted because of the Cross, and will remain thus forever); and they all shall wax old as does a garment (proclaims the fact that there is going to have to be a change regarding the Creation); 12 And as a vesture shall You fold them up, and they shall be changed (changed from one condition to another): but You are the same, and Your years shall not fail (refers to the superiority of the Creator over the Creation). 13 But to which of the Angels said He (God the Father) at any time, Sit on My Right Hand (Angels stand before God; it is a mark of superior dignity that the Son sits), until I make Your enemies Your footstool? (This refers to God rendering all Christ’s enemies utterly powerless, which is carried out by the Cross.) 14 Are they not all Ministering spirits (the function of Angels), sent forth to Minister for them Who shall be heirs of Salvation? (This proclaims that they attend only those who have made Christ their Saviour.)
Psalms 2:7 (KJV)
7 I will declare the decree (the Father gives the Son sovereign power over the Universe): the LORD has said unto Me, You are My Son (the Lord Jesus Christ); this day have I begotten You. (What day? The day this was decreed in Heaven, even before the foundation of the world. It speaks of the Plan of God to redeem humanity, by God becoming Man, and going to the Cross [I Pet. 1:18–20.)

1 Peter 1:18-20 (KJV)
18 Forasmuch as you know that you were not redeemed with corruptible things, as silver and gold (presents the fact that the most precious commodities [silver and gold] could not redeem fallen man), from your vain conversation (vain lifestyle) received by tradition from your fathers (speaks of original sin that is passed on from father to child at conception);

THE CROSS
19 But with the Precious Blood of Christ (presents the payment, which proclaims the poured out Life of Christ on behalf of sinners), as of a Lamb without blemish and without spot (speaks of the lambs offered as substitutes in the Old Jewish economy; the Death of Christ was not an execution or assassination, but rather a Sacrifice; the Offering of Himself presented a Perfect Sacrifice, for He was Perfect in every respect [Ex. 12:5]): 20 Who verily was foreordained before the foundation of the world (refers to the fact that God, in His Omniscience, knew He would create man, man would fall, and man would be redeemed by Christ going to the Cross; this was all done before the Universe was created; this means the Cross of Christ is the Foundation Doctrine of all Doctrine, referring to the fact that all Doctrine must be built upon that Foundation, or else it is specious), but was manifest in these last times for you (refers to the invisible God Who, in the Person of the Son, was made visible to human eyesight by assuming a human body and human limitations),
Exodus 12:5 (KJV)
5 Your lamb shall be without blemish (Christ was without blemish, Who the lamb represented, “holy, harmless, undefiled” — a “lamb without spot” [I Pet. 1:19]), a male of the first year (meant to portray the virile manhood of Christ; in other words, He didn’t die in the throes of old age, but rather in the prime of manhood): you shall take it out from the sheep, or from the goats (the “goats” then represented were different from our goats presently; then they were very similar to the sheep, actually, with their long flowing mane, even more beautiful than the sheep):
