Jesus IS Better Than….
The book of Hebrews gives us some clues into just how much better Jesus is than anything! Check these scriptures out:
Hebrews 1:4 – Jesus is much BETTER than angels!
Hebrews 6:9 – Jesus has BETTER things concerning us! Knowing this gives us the confidence to endure to the end with a joyful expectation! Holding onto the Gospel and to our relationship with our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ!
Hebrews 7:7 – Jesus is our great grace-dispensing priest-King who desires to shower us with blessings! Jesus’s priesthood is far BETTER than the Levitical priesthood!!
Hebrews 7:19 – Jesus brought in a BETTER hope, by which we can draw near to God at any time!
Hebrews 8:6 – Jesus put into effect a BETTER covenant with BETTER promises!
Hebrews 9:23 – Jesus, once and for all, entered into the Heavenly temple for us and purified the temple and all its vessels with His own blood! His sacrifice was far BETTER than any earthly sacrifice!!
Hebrews 10:34 – We can rejoice always and allow the Fruit of the Spirit (Gal. 5:22-23) to flow actively through us (Love, joy, peace…) knowing that no matter what, what we have in Heaven is far BETTER and more enduring than anything we ever had or have in this earthly life;
Hebrews 11:16 – Jesus has prepared a Heavenly country for us — BETTER than any earthly country — for those who desire it!
Hebrews 11:35 – Jesus offers us a BETTER resurrection! We have a living hope!!
Hebrews 11:40 – What we have today because of Jesus is BETTER than anything the Old Testament saints had; and
Hebrews 12:24 – The blood of Jesus speaks of BETTER things than the blood of Abel’s. It speaks of complete forgiveness! Reconciliation to the Father! Redemption! Justification! Righteousness! and so much more!
Springtime is a wonderful season to reflect on our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ. For it is during this season that we celebrate His death, burial, and resurrection! One day we will see Him return for us the same way He left this earth (Acts 1:11): in the clouds! Isn’t that exciting!
