Humanity’s Purpose 6-8b

Humanity’s Failure 8c

Jesus, the Perfect Man 9

Incarnation and Crucifixion: ‘made lower than the angels for a little while’

Exaltation by Death and Resurrection: ‘crowned with glory and honor’

Final Triumph: ‘God has left nothing that is not subject to him’

Implications: ‘But we do see Jesus’

When you see our/your failure, see Jesus instead.
See Jesus crucified, in his grace.
See Jesus crowned, in his glory.

When you see this world’s futility and darkness, see Jesus instead.
See him as the Ruler of the world to come.
See that world already overlapping with this present evil age.

Read Ahead: Hebrews 2:10-3:1
