The world has changed. I feel it in the water, I feel
it in the earth, a smell it in the air.
Much that once was is lost for none now live who remember?
It seemed I know what that's from.
Lord of the Rings. We got 1.
Awesome. Alright.
Here's another one. It was the best of times.
It was the worst of times. It was the age of wisdom.
It was the age of foolishness but now that one Tell it to
cities. All right, last one everybody
better get this one a long time ago in a galaxy far.
Far away. We got that Star Wars.
No, I love that nice. I don't even like Star Wars so I
think was a good joke. All right, I couldn't get into
it, but anyways, those are a few of many, like epic opening lines
to either like a movie or a book, write in any good story or
any good book or a speech will seek to draw you in immediately.
And capture your attention from the very first lines, right?
If you do any studying on like speaking, you'll somehow
inevitably end up like at a TED talk because, you know, they're
like that's like the epitome, like this 20 minute talk, right?
A TED Talk. And the speaker seeks to like,
hook the audience in 30 seconds or less.
I don't know what the stats are. You have, like so much time to
draw them in and so they start with something epic and I think
we miss it in our context, but the author of the book of
Hebrews does a masterful job in the opening lines.
Of his sermon, which is what I believe this is, and we'll look
at that. In just a moment, he says, long
ago. God spoke to our ancestors by
the prophets at different times and in different ways.
In these last days, he has spoken to us by his son and I
would place these opening lines up there with the others.
I read earlier. As as the speaker begins this
eloquent book by drawing Us in and he immediately gets to the
heart of his message while rooting it in their ancient
history and it's beautiful. And as we go through the book,
we're going to get to see a lot of eloquence come through.
It's a very well-written book. But as beautiful and eloquent,
as these words are what they are seeking to point us to is even
more magnificent. And so, my prayer for us is We
Begin. This series is that we will be
captured by much more than eloquent words on a page.
I want us to be captured by the final and Living Word, the Son
of God, Jesus, the Messiah because that is who the book of
Who's is all about. So good morning again, church is
always, it's a joy to be gathered with you.
As I said earlier, my name is Joel and I get to serve as one
of the pastor's here but more importantly than that.
I get to just be a member here at who Heating and get to be a
part of what God is doing in our midst, As We join God in his
mission of redeeming the world. Through seemingly ordinary.
Local church has gathered all around the world that have been
for the last two thousand years. And so I'm grateful to be a
part. So, like, Said we are beginning.
This new series in the book of Hebrews, this book is Rich, it
is saturated with the explicit gospel, message of Jesus work,
both in the world around us and in our hearts and in our lives.
And if you've been with new Eden for any length of time, you
know, that we believe every book of the scripture ultimately
points us to Jesus, but sometimes that path to seeing.
Jesus can feel like mining the depths of the ocean to find a
lost treasure, right? And there's something glorious
about that. Something like it's a beautiful
journey to go on. And we see that through
different books, like maybe Jonah, or Daniel, some of the
books we've been through. But then you have books, like
Hebrews and it is impossible to miss, it's like, it, just
reaches up and slaps you in the face.
Clearly stating what is true? And Hebrews is actually a great
way for us to even understand how do we interpret the Old
Testament because Hebrews draws on so much old Estimate
scripture. And so I am excited for us to
enter this journey together as we work through the text both
now. And in future weeks, we'll be
using the csb version of the scriptures.
You're welcome to bring whatever you're most comfortable with.
Did you read the csb Kelly? Or did I miss something?
Okay, I felt like something was off on that, but maybe I missed
it. So I was looking at the screen
or maybe we put the ESV in the screen.
I don't know, something was different, but anyways, so you
are welcome to bring though, whatever as Sarah Beth mentioned
earlier, we do. Do have the csb scripture
notebooks for purchase on the welcome table and that's what
this is. So you can see them, they can
just be a helpful tool for you. Again, if money is an issue,
just take one and we'll always have the verses on the screens
behind me. So, today we're covering, what
is the intro to the book? And that is verses 1 through 3
of chapter 1. Before we start unpacking, those
few verses, I do want to take a few minutes.
We do this. Every time we go into a book and
we just say hey what's the context?
What is going on? In this book so we can all be on
the same page. So a little bit about Hebrews,
anytime you study a book of the Bible, one of the first
questions you need to ask is what kind of literature is it.
You don't interpret poetry the same way.
You might interpret apocalyptic literature or a historical
narrative is so we have to ask what kind of literature is
Hebrews. So I think the best lens to read
Hebrews through is as a sermon, okay?
Commentators are in agreement that this book would have been
passed around as other Epistles. Whistles and letters were in the
early church, but most commentators also believe that
Hebrews was primarily written first and foremost, as a sermon
as a homily, something like that.
And many of the churches would have orators who were gifted
that would come up and they would read the letter as a
sermon. If you look at it you kind of
see that he did. There's no pleasantries.
There's no self-introduction he just goes right into intro in
what he's going to talk about. He's setting the stage for what
he's going to communicate through the Of the message.
And so some people say the intros one through four of the
csb has a divided that way. Some say it's 1 through 3 we're
kind of taking it one through three but that's the intro to
this sermon. If it were to be read by one of
these orators, it would take about 45 to 50 minutes which is
so if we read through the whole thing, we joked about, that's
what we're just going to do this week is just read through the
whole thing, we're not but about 45 to 50 minutes tournament.
So that makes sense. So what type of literature it is
we generally a sermon you can Also look at it as a letter, but
the next question we typically ask is well, who wrote it,
right? That's important for us to know
who's the author of this sermon and the reality is we have no
idea. Like there are not many books of
the Bible where there's like not strong opinions about who wrote
it, but this is like one of them every cut, there's no
commentator. Who's like, I got it figured out
and that tells you that we don't know early on.
There were some traditions that said it was Paul.
At this point there I had a hard time finding I think I've found
one or two. Blind biblical scholarship that
still think that Paul wrote this.
So most people don't think it was Paul best guesses range.
Anywhere from the biblical characters of Apollo's to Luke
to Barnabas everywhere in between, we really don't know.
And so what I think that tells us is it's not that important,
the third Century scholar origin.
I think he said it best. He said, as to who wrote the
epistle referencing Hebrews, he says only, God knows the truth,
okay? And it doesn't really matter.
The focal point is not on the character who wrote it, but the
character of the one he writes about.
So even though we don't know who wrote it, there are a few
helpful things to note about who it was written to.
So we don't get the audience, the intended audience explicitly
stated in the book, but we get Clues all throughout that.
Tell us a general idea. And so the main thing that we
need to understand for context is that the intended audience
would have been people who were very familiar with and at one
time, Embedded within Judaism, they understood very well.
The, the author assumes that these people understand the old
Covenant sacrificial system that they have a deep knowledge of
all these things. And so that tells us the
predominant makeup of the receiving audience were Jewish
converts who have been converted to Christianity, and it could
have included some Gentiles who had been converted to Judaism
previously and then converted to Christianity.
But there is an Option that they understand the old Covenant
system and we'll be looking back at that quite a bit throughout
the book. Okay?
And then we got to look at why it was written.
We can see as we go through it will see that.
The purpose of this book was to encourage and cultivate Faith,
among these people who were facing forms of persecution.
Now clearly because he says it explicitly, this persecution had
not yet elevated to the point of death but most likely it was
still very real. It included things like economic
loss, being cut off from the community being ostracized from
family, being mocked and other forms of just cultural pressures
from all sides. I think it's important for us to
understand that conversion to Christianity.
During this culture was not just trading one religion for another
see, when Jesus came on the scene, his claims are so radical
that it basically angered everybody.
Okay. if you then begin to follow this Jesus, you were
placed in the crosshairs of both the ruling Empire, and the
ruling religious Elite, the claim that Jesus alone was King
angered, the Civil leaders of the day and the claim that Jesus
alone was Savior and not the law and rules not regulations that
angered, the religious leaders of the day Specifically, we need
to understand that some of the leaders of Judaism held
political power and Sway and they would use it to persecute
the early church. We even see that with the
Apostle Paul before he was converted.
Okay? And so that's some of what's
going on. And so our preacher is writing
this message to the worn-out beat up people of God who are
saying is following Jesus, really worth it.
Like we hear these big men magnificent things about Jesus
having Things underneath his feet but it doesn't really look
like it. That's not the reality staring
me in the face. And so the writer of Hebrews
wants to give this heavenly glimpse of what's going on.
Scattered throughout the book are various warnings against
apostasy and walking away from the faith and those contain,
some of the more difficult passages that we will walk
through. But it's interesting that the
main tact taken is not to call the listeners of this message to
just hang in there. It was a pull yourself up by
your bootstraps. Just get it figured out, rather
the resounding and repeating message that we see is that
Jesus is better. so if the purpose is to encourage these
weary Saints, then the method used by this author is to
proclaim the glories of Jesus and set A Feast for them to come
sit at Jesus has finally and completely done the work that
was needed for salvation and he is trustworthy, you can rest in
him and throw your life on his care.
And so, simply put the main theme of This Book Is that Jesus
is better. He is greater than fill in the
blank. He is superior.
Okay? That's what our graphic means.
That's the greater than sign like that is cute.
All right, I can put it on a mug.
Go to merchants of the app if you want one.
Aw, somebody said all, look at that.
Now I'm going to drink out of it.
There's my commercial. But it's beautiful right over
and over and over like it is just this flood where we see the
Magnificent glory and beauty of Jesus.
And the purpose of this is so that whatever hardships The
world may afford, whatever persecutions might lay in store,
whatever Temptations crouched at our door, Jesus is bigger and
better and truer than anything else that this world or any
religion has to offer. Through the book will see that.
Jesus is better than the angels will see that.
He is the true human, the true Adam.
He's better than the prophet Moses.
He's the place of true and final rest.
He is the Fulfillment of The Promise Land.
He is the true high priest. He's the mediator of a new and
better Covenant, and he's the final sacrifice for sin and will
see so much more. And so all of this would have
encouraged them. But it also holds incredible
relevance for you. And for me, as we get tired on
our journey of following Jesus as we get weary and worn out and
we Face pressures of the day, the promise of the perseverance
of the Saints is rooted in the finished work of Christ on our
behalf. We live in a world with
pressures from both a religious legalistic culture and also a
licentious God denying culture. And so we're at these crosshairs
and the message of Hebrews is that in the midst of all, All of
this, the better way is Jesus, everything begins and ends with
him, and there is nothing worth more in all the Earth.
So that's a little bit of context for the book of Hebrews.
So, what we're going to do for the rest of our time is, look at
these first three verses of Hebrews chapter 1, again they
stand as the introduction to the text and so they're going to
contain some high-level thoughts and ideas and Concepts that he
will. Unpack throughout the rest of
the book. And so we're going to kind of
stay up high level with him. Basically I want to give you
just what the text is which is a flood of magnificent truth about
Jesus and as we work through the book will begin to mind the
depths of what these truths mean in our lives and in the world
around us. So, since it's so good, I want
to read it one more time for us. Long ago.
God spoke to our ancestors by the prophets at different times
and in different ways. In these last days, he has
spoken to us by his son. God has appointed him, heir of
all things and made the universe through him.
The son is the radiance of God's glory and the exact expression
of his nature sustaining. All Things by his powerful word
after making purification for sins, he sat down at the right
hand of the Majesty on high. So we're going to break this
passage down into three different points.
The first of which is this the word of the Sun, the word of the
sun, Hebrews doesn't mention that the son is Jesus.
He will in chapter two but it's assumed.
And we just came through the Advent season where we spent
time, dwelling on the longing for the promised one who would
come right? We sat and we waited in that
through the prophets, the people of God, Her glimpses of a
messiah of a Son of God, who would come, they had even seen
revelations in times past. They'd even heard the audible
voice of God. They had experienced
Deliverance, but all of that was only a shadow.
It was a glimpse a foretaste, that was pointing forward to the
real thing which was when God himself would come in flesh.
And the person of Jesus Christ. And the word of this son is, is
4 and above better than any word of the profits from the past.
Because it is the Eternal Word, the logos the now, the word now
made flesh John 1, in the beginning, was the word and the
Word was with God and the Word was God, and then later in the
in the book, the word became flesh.
And dwelt Among Us, this eternal word that had existed with the
father became flesh. When the preacher of Hebrews
says, in these last days, he simply referencing the Advent of
Christ. Paul says that this way in
Galatians chapter 4, he says, when the time came to
completion, God sent his son. The word of the sun is here.
Explicitly clear, it has arrived and it's good news.
So, the word of the sun is not only better than the prophets.
We also see that it is final, this is it, we're not looking
for more Revelation in the sense that there's something better.
The greatest Revelation is here, Jesus is it?
We don't need to look any further as the Apostle Peter
says he says, these are things that Angels long to look into
and inquired about us as what is this Plan of Salvation?
And in Christ, it was all revealed first Peter 1:20.
He Jesus was foreknown before the foundation of the world, but
was revealed in these last times for you.
This is the word of God to humanity.
Not only is the word of the sun better than the prophets.
Not only is it final. We also see that it is the word
of this son that created all things.
At the end of verse to our preacher says that God made the
universe through the sun, through him through Jesus.
So our preacher kind of starts with these last days, the Advent
of Christ, the birth of Christ and his his work there and then
he kind of zooms backward to the time of creation and shows us
that the sun had already Ways existed with the father, Jesus
was the speaking word at creation that got this whole
thing started. John 1:3, all things were
created through him and apart from him.
Not one thing was created that has been created Colossians 1.
For everything was created by Him and heaven and on Earth
visible and invisible Thrones dominions, rulers authorities.
He's you name it, all things have been created through him
and for him. The word of this son is powerful
and has created all things, but not only that, the word of this
son sustains, what he created. He is not absent.
Verse 3 were told that the sun is sustaining, All Things by his
powerful word. Now, I'm not sure how you're
wired. I'm the type that loves to get
things going. But I don't like to always
follow through. Okay, I'm a Creator.
You give me an idea. Like you get me excited about
something like, let's go, like I'll create a graphic for it.
I'll create a spreadsheet, but I don't want to maintain that
spreadsheet. Like, let somebody else fill in
the data later, you know, throughout the next couple of
years, right, but that's not. Jesus, like he doesn't just get
started and then back away and say good luck humans.
That's not what he does. He's intimately involved and he
sustaining All Things by his powerful word and so right away
in Hebrews, our author gives us this like like we could preach a
whole sermon on each of these things.
Tells us of the all powerful word of this sun, but as we keep
reading, we see, not only the word of the sun.
We also see the worth of the Sun, we're told at the end of
verse 2, That God has appointed Jesus heir of all things.
We don't in our culture, understand this idea of
inheritance that well but the idea here is that the father and
Trust to the Sun, the very things he created, which is all
things. This begins to tell us that the
worth of this son his value is all-encompassing.
The one who was the rightful Heir was the first born son, and
he was given the father's inheritance.
But this is no like normal inheritance.
This isn't a few thousand dollars.
It's not a car or a house. It is all things like the entire
Cosmos and this son is worth it all.
This book will pull on a ton of Old Testament passages and Psalm
2 is one of those and this is what it says.
I will declare the Lord's decree.
He said to me and this is ultimately fulfilled in Jesus.
You are my son today. I have become your father.
We're going to see that quoted directly in Hebrews next week
and then it goes on. And says, ask of me and I will
make the nation's your inheritance and the ends of the
Earth, your possession. All the Earth is the Lord's and
the fullness thereof. It's why part of our vision is
to see the entire Earth flooded with the glory of God.
He's worth it all. It's his inheritance and he will
have it. So not only is the worth of the
sun, all encompassing the worth of this sun is gloriously
divine. Well, read verse 3, of our text.
We see that the son is the radiance.
This is strong language. The radiance of God's glory. and
the exact not close, but the exact expression of his nature,
The worth of the sun radiates God's glory and displays God's
character because the sun is one with the father and the spirit
each distinct but making up together the Triune God who
rules over all. And if you want to see the glory
of God on full display, you want to see it radiating to the
world. Look at the face of Jesus.
Colossians says it this way, that Jesus Bears, God's image in
that. In Christ, the entire fullness
of God, was pleased to dwell. The worth of this sun reveals
who God is this word expression that we see in the text.
It literally means character and not like we think it does kind
of lead to the idea of character that we think of.
But it's this idea of a wax seal that has been imprinted or
stamped with the image of a ring.
And Jesus is a perfect representation and exact
depiction of who God is, if you want to know who God is, To the
sun that's biblical. He is marvelously glory and
worthy of all praise. You could add up all the wealth
of princes and thieves. You could gather together all
the Holdings of the biggest investors in the world.
You could cash out every bank account from the largest to the
least. You could have assembled in one
place to greatest armies that the Earth has ever known.
You could scour the globe, finding the most rare, Treasures
known to man, and you have not even begun to scratch the
surface of the worth of this son.
He is so far and above and greater than anything that our
minds could even begin to comprehend.
Sometimes I'll sit around. I'll just think, like, how much
money is a billion dollars? I don't know if you've ever
tried to like comprehend, like it's a lot more money than you,
probably think it is. One of the things I'll do to
comprehend it is, I'll break it down like how much wealth, you
know, I'll break it down into the our.
So last night I did the math, if someone gave you a thousand
dollars an hour. So think about how much money
you make an hour right now. Okay, not a thousand, I hope
not. If not, we need to talk because
Newton has some neat swing talk about, but if someone gave you a
thousand dollars, an hour, 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, so
365 days out of the Year thousand dollars.
An hour for 100 years you still would not be at a billion
dollars you'd be about 124 million dollars short.
Like that's a lot of money. I'm like how do you even spend
that much money right? But I'm not gonna get into
politics anyways, when I really try to like understand how much
money that is, my brain begins to break, but it's the same way.
If you've ever like had someone explain how far apart, like the
planets are on the stars and they start with.
Like if it was a piece of paper from here. to the Sun and then
you add your just like I don't like and that's nothing. when
compared to the worth of the Sun, His glory radiates and
there is no one who could stand in his presence.
It's like in fact, as I was like pondering on the all powerful
word of the Sun and meditating on the all-encompassing worth of
the sun, I actually begin to wonder how the writer of Hebrews
is taking us to Good News because like the idea of Jesus
might be like all inspiring when we think about his word and his
worth, but in light of who we are, it's actually freaking
terrifying. When we understand like under
the old Covenant, they it was just symbols and types.
These these temples and Tabernacles that represented
God's presence. It wasn't like it represented.
It was a shadow and a type. Even then you couldn't go into
the most holy place. It was one high priest.
Let it go through all these rituals to go just once a year
to offer sacrifice for the people.
The presence of God was unapproachable due to the sin of
man. Big, huge picture.
This image we get right in our opening lines but I loved the
writer. Can't go long without giving us
incredible. Hope we saw the word of the Sun,
the worth of the sun. And the, lastly, we see the work
of the Sun. What did he come?
To do. at the end of verse 3 of Hebrews chapter 1, we read that
after making purification for sins, he sat down at the right
hand of the Majesty on high. It is good news that the son
displaced to us the worth of God, but he did not come just
for that because they're still still a disconnect if we're
Sinners, he came to do a work that could actually Usher us
into the very presence of God through the purification of sin.
We're told right up front in the book is just going to like flood
us with it and unpack it even more.
But the point here is that Jesus came to do a new creation work
in the hearts of Sinners. And To bring Salvation and this
work is specifically accomplishing what the law never
could. This was impossible under the
old Covenant under the old. Covenant sins could be
temporarily covered. They could be momentarily dealt
with But they could not be forgiven once and for all
removed as far as the East is from the west.
But that is the work that Jesus came to accomplish with his
life, death, burial and Resurrection.
This is the purification for sins and Hebrews will unfold
this even more, but the purifying work of the sun came
at Great cost to him self. Jesus willingly became man as
we'll see next week lower than the Angels humbled himself and
took on flesh. Remember one with the Father,
the radiance of God's glory coming as a baby leaving.
A throne of glory and Perfection and trading.
His Royal crown for a life of poverty, homelessness ridicule
and grief. But with his perfect life, he
becomes the complete, sacrifice the perfect sacrifice, as he
completely obeys and surrenders to his father, he is becoming
the perfect spotless Lamb of God, who is here to take away
the sins of the world. And that's where the life of
Jesus was directly headed the entire time to death.
To sacrifice to die and atone for the sins.
Of the world. But he was not willing that any
should perish. And so he set his face like a
flint and took on the fruit of our sin and he takes on himself,
what we the Sinners, the ones who can't even come to the
presence of God, because of our Brokenness.
He takes that on himself as he faces the violent urges of a
broken Humanity. As we'll see later in Hebrews,
he suffers outside the gate so that he might sanctify his
people that's you, if you're in Christ through his own blood and
it is the precious shed, blood of Christ that purifies Sinners
and makes us Saints. If you are in Christ, you are a
saint, you are a new creation. It is who you are through the
blood of Christ. It is not like any of the blood
under the old Covenant. It is once and for all the final
sacrifice, because this work is final.
It's enough. You might think it's not, you
might look at your own sin, and your Brokenness, and think there
is no way, but it is enough. And this work is final.
So while on the cross, he cries out, it is finished, there is
now no need for the continued offering of sacrifices and
rituals and just begging God to forgive us.
Please just just let me, you know, go and don't don't hurt
me. That's not it.
We come boldly to the throne of grace is what Hebrews tells us
in the cross. God's people receive.
All the Forgiveness they'll ever need.
And we don't like it because it's scandalous.
We want to hold sins over other people's heads because we know
we do the same thing to ourselves, but in the cross we
get it all. All the Forgiveness we need.
There are no more sacrifices to be offered. because the once for
all final sacrifice of the son is complete, Probably one of my
favorite images from Hebrews at least at this point, is we study
there? Probably more but it's this idea
of the son sitting down at the right hand of the Majesty on
high. I mean yes sitting by the father
alludes to his kingship and his place is the rightful Heir
that's a piece of it but it also shows that the work is complete.
The old Covenant, there was no chair in the Tabernacle because
the work of the high priest was never done sin was never finally
done away with. But now in Christ, all sin is
wiped away. And the table is set to offer
salvation for any. Who would come because he beat
sin, he deals with it, he takes on death and he lays in the
Tomb, but on Easter morning he gets back up out of the grave.
Tops on the heads of head of the serpent and says I've done it.
The work is complete. And this Blood pleads, a better
word over us, the word of the sun does, for us, what it did in
the original creation, when he creates all things and he
sustains it. But this time like this big,
huge Cosmos, it is you as the new creation that God has
created, as he rips out your old heart and he gives you a new
heart that actually loves him and Longs for him.
And he not only Jesus doesn't work.
This is how we treat salvation like Jesus.
Got it started and then he backs up and says alright don't screw
it up again. That's not it.
Jesus is there intimately involved working even like
sometimes I'm like do I even want you?
God like do I even desire you and it's like, Jesus is still
working and sanctifying me. Is not backed off.
He is not uninvolved. And so, for those of us in here,
who don't yet know, Jesus, maybe we have an idea because we do
live in a religious culture, we have an idea.
But we don't yet know him, the invitation of Hebrews is to look
to him and live. And what I encourage you and
plead with you, I don't know what it is.
That's a hurdle for you. Giving your life to Christ.
I don't know what that is. I don't know if it's cultural
pressures. I don't know if it's different
beliefs of Christianity. I don't know if it's baggage or
trauma from the past. Those are all real things and we
want to talk about those and wrestle through those, but I
will say this everything else in this world will let you down.
But when we see the worth of Christ and we see the work, he's
done, everything else just begins to fade into the
background. So the call if you don't know,
Christ has to repent and believe the good news of Jesus, his
life, death, burial and Resurrection.
And for those who are the Saints of God, who like we may struggle
with doubts, we may struggle when we look at our lives to
really believe that he is as good as the writer of Hebrews,
says he is, but I want to tell you be encouraged.
It is not about you just hanging on and being faithful enough.
Be encouraged. Your sin has been dealt with.
Yes confess, agree with God, we do confession of sin that simply
agreeing with God, when we are made aware of our standard were
like, Zhang, there it is. I agree with you guys.
That's not good. That is taking my eyes off of
you. But you don't have to grovel and
beg and self-flagellating like begging God, please, let me back
in your good graces as if you could ever learn that.
Anyways, do you think you can earn like like getting into the
Blazing? Brady n't, presence of God, no
we come on grace alone, and that's what he presents.
You can approach the throne boldly anytime you need it.
You don't have a high priest who doesn't understand what it's
like to be tempted. He knows, he gets it.
So don't run back to the old way.
Don't turn back to the law. It has zero value in making you
right with God it served its purpose when it pointed you to
Christ. So now we live under the law of
love the law of Liberty, as Paul calls it.
Their James. I don't know which one the law
of love not of works. The only work that matters is
the work of the true and better one.
Jesus. And so may Our Lives be filled
with three telling this good news to each other.
So we forget Day in day out. I forget like, I don't know if
Jesus is really better than this material thing, or whatever.
Winning a stupid youth basketball game is Jesus really
better than that? Maybe not.
I don't know how can judge me. The point is we forget and we
need each other to remind us. That Jesus is better.
He is better than your worst days.
And he's better than your best. He's better than your poverty
and he's better than your wealth.
He's better than your suffering and he's better than your
happiness. He's better than your failures
and better than your successes so look to him, his Supreme
Beauty and sacrifice and all who look to him will never be
ashamed. All in all Jesus is better.
