Choice 5: Hebrews 1–2. Jesus Christ Is Greater than Angels

1.    Refer to “Epistle to the Hebrews” in the Bible Dictionary (pp. 746–47). Read the first paragraph and the “Analysis of Hebrews,” number 1–5. Make a list of what Jesus Christ is superior to.

• The apostles

• Angels

• Moses

• His own word is superior. 

• High priests of the law of Moses

 

2.    Read Hebrews 1. Make a list of three truths Paul taught about the Savior Jesus Christ.

• Christ is the heir of all things. 

• Christ made the worlds

• Christ is better than the angels.

3.    Read Hebrews 2:7–18; 4:13–16; Alma 7:11–15; Doctrine and Covenants 122:8. In writing describe how these scriptures explain reasons the Son of God came to earth to experience mortality.
Christ was given the opportunity to come to this Earth to destroy the devil and that He would be able to pay for our sins.  He came to this earth so that he could fulfill his word that He said he would take the pains and sickness of the people.He also did this so we could learn to repent for our sins and keep the commandments. Its also is important to read these scriptures because the last verse in D&C shows that we need to remember that we are not greater than Jesus. The way it is phrased in a question makes you ponder what your ideas are.
