Discuss Hebrews 1 Page 11

"The doctrine of Jesus Christ is the word of the heavenly Father. The doctrine of the Son and the testimony of the Holy Spirit is above (excels) all the teachings of the prophets, and it contains all that is necessary and conducive to salvation.

Nor can the will of the heavenly Father be found anywhere so clearly as in the words of Jesus Christ, by whom he has in these last days spoken, made known his will, and fully expressed it; hence all that is contrary, or not conformable, to the words of Christ, is not God's word or will; for "no other foundation can be laid, than that is laid, which is Jesus Christ"

1 Cor.3:11.

Originally written in German by Dietrich Phillip on his writing titled "The True Knowledge of God"

Supporting scriptures to this small part of his text are as follows:

Hebrews 1:2

John 7:16

John 3:11

John 8:28

John 12:49

John 14:10;24

Galatians 1:8-9

Matthew 4:4

Matthew 11:29

Probably you've heard that Jesus is God incarnate, i.e. God come in the flesh. We believe in the one God, the Creator of all things, the Holy One of Israel. Beside Him there is no other god. God in His Eternal Existence reveals Himself to man as the Word of God & the Spirit of God. And this God in His Fullness (i.e. His Deity) we read in 1 John 5:7: "For there are three that bear record in heaven, the Father, the Word, and the Holy Ghost: and these three are one." John 1:1 "In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God."

In Galatians 4:4, 5: "But when the fulness of the time was come, God sent forth his Son, made of a woman, made under the law, to redeem them that were under the law, that we might receive the adoption of sons." So, God Himself by His Word came to His people. You remember how God had given his words to Israel by the mouth of the prophets?

Those days have now finished for God did something new: ( Hebrews 1:1-3), "God, who at sundry times and in divers manners spake in time past unto the fathers by the prophets, hath in these last days spoken unto us by his Son, whom he hath appointed heir of all things, by whom also he made the worlds; Who being the brightness of his glory, and the EXPRESS IMAGE OF HIS PERSON, and upholding all things by the word of his power, when he had by himself purged our sins, sat down on the right hand of the Majesty on high".

God, the Word, was made man & He would be called Immanuel ( Isaiah 7:14) & "Behold, a virgin shall be with child, and shall bring forth a son, and they shall call his name Emmanuel, which being interpreted is, God with us. ( Matthew 1:23). "And she shall bring forth a son, and thou shalt call his name JESUS: for he shall save his people from their sins." ( Matthew 1:21).

Not only did God appoint His Son (His Word in the Flesh) to bring His Message, but also to give His Life for our sins. As Thomas finally exclaimed, "My Lord and my God" & he wasn't rebuked by Jesus.

Jane, I cannot think of any specific instance of an angel doing a healing work on behalf of God. The only one that comes close is in John chapter 5 verses 1-4: the angel that stirred the waters at the pool at Bethesda. Did your Pastor refer to this, or how did he support his message about the healing work of angels?

As a side note, Raphael, the 'archangel' is not accepted by mainstream Christians, but this 'angel' is mentioned in some apocryphal books of Judaism, Catholicism, eastern Orthodox, LDS, & Islam. But I doubt whether your Pastor was inclined to any of these. Yet, as he correctly quoted, Hebrews 1:13-14 does speak of angels who are involved & interested in our human lives to minister to us and also observe our worship ( 1 Corinthians 11:3-10).

We believe that it is God Who gives healing, just as His Son did while He walked on Earth. And this healing to us is ministered by His Spirit Who indwells every child of God & unites with our human spirit: not only bearing witness with our spirit that we belong to Him ( Romans 8:16), but also affecting our whole being to align us with the Will & Purposes of God in our lives. So whenever we sin or choose to go outside the Will of God, the Spirit checks us to draw us back, but sadly many persist in their wilfulness & thereby become estranged & grieve the Heart of God.

Your heart speaks love and truth Bless you. I know you will tell others about him and what he means to you.

Our jesus is greater than everything!

Put your Trust in God

do not be anxious

do not worry

What does it mean to be careful of nothing

Just a question The devil will deceive any one he can because to him we are not just a number but we are used for him and his demons to live with in our shells lights or would I say soles if we allow this or I we choice to fight it with in our minds of what choices we make What if a person of a young age of not understanding the bible or Gods word through being blind folded by there sins of being under the wing of the devil from when they where first born carrying many soles of those who have passed before them as a time capual l for the future to be carried with visions that of the past and the future be showed at such a young age and remembered for a reason for the future and as the person got older and keepet away from the people in the world and adapted to a world of a different connection with visions and trasmitions of a frequency that others do not understand that in her life others have tried to wreak every thing she try's to succeed in because there is a force of darkness with in them that she can see but they can not she knows what its trying to do but sometimes gets angry because she knows the truth and it follows her through pother people and also in music that she listens to some times she can not watch tv or listen to music and had to be on her own for years because of this would you think there is a reason for this or is she just above the system and know more than the average human is she the only one going through this what is your thoughts of this

Milissa

you are absolutely correct, this is the day God commanded us to keep. God, Jesus said remember the sabbath day to keep it holy. Remember Millisa in Iasiah 8:16 how He told him to seal up His law. He also knew who his disciples were going to be. He had mentioned "my disciples". It is this day that He Himself ordained, sanctified, blessed, and hallowed. He Himself is currently doing this in heaven, because he rested from all of His work (creation). Hebrews 4 is very plain and distinct, of what God is telling us what and how to keep, His holy day, as our creator redeemer, and king, all at the same time.

:)

Jesus in his human nature was the Son of God, he came as the Word, which in the beginning was with God, and was God, and became flesh. John Chapter 1.

Jesus was the first born and own Son of the almighty Father and living God. John 1:14; Col 1:15; Romans 8:32; Hebrews 1:8.

I believe with this confession of faith from times past: that Christ in his divine nature he is the Word, in this nature he would be the wisdom of God, the truth and the light, the firstborn of God's creatures, the brightness of the eternal light, the image of the invisible God the Father, as an immaculate reflection of divine purity and an express image of his divinity who in the beginning was with the Father in divine form, glory and purity.

John 1:3; John 14 1-12; Col 1:15; Heb 1:3; Rom 8:29; 1 Cor 1:29.

Two natures each with different names!

By Love.

Jesus is not God, He is the Son of God, this is the start of being a witness unto him, where to start... 1 John 4:9-15, Ephesians 1:19-20, Luke 18:18-19, 1 John 5:1-11, John 5:17-47, Hebrews 10:12, John 6:38, Matthew 16:13-17, Romans 1:9, 1 Corinthians 3:23, John ch 14, John 10:36-38, Matthew 24:36, John 8:54, John 10:17-18, Hebrews 1:1-9, Matthew 27:46, Mark 14:36, Matthew 10:40, Revelations 3:21, Mark 12:35-39, 1 Corinthians 8:5-6, Matthew 20:23, Revelations 1:1, 1 Thessalonians 1:10, 1 Timothy 2:5, John 1:18

Msg i found u key fact its coincidence that the 1 commandment that is specifically centered on god right to our worship is the commandment the whole world seems to have forgotten song imagine if every single week the whole world had continued to observe gods sabbath to cease ordinary activities and worship god as the creator what are the odds (nevereven)read this word backwards reverce that would have been ready to adopt alternate theories of human ovrigins why is the theory of evolution such a hot topic why are both sides of the debate it because they echo the two sides portrayed in the final eveents described by the book of revelation 13 m he provides compelling alternatives to the worship of the true one creator god even forcing people to worship his false system when gentle persuasion fails on the other side there is the final warning message in reverlation 14n that goes to the whole world pbleading with humanity i hope u get this message and may god be with you all

Hebrews 1:8

But unto the Son he saith, Thy throne, O God, is ever and ever: a sceptre of righteousness is the sceptre of thy kingdom.

Hebrews 1:10

And, Thou, Lord, in the beginning hast laid the foundation of the earth; and the heavens are the works of thine hands:

Carleton

Darlene,

There are many verses that prove Jesus is God. John 1:1 states that Jesus is God. In Hebrews 1:8, Jesus is called God. Jesus Himself claimed to be God. Jesus also said before Abraham was, "I am," the name God used. Jesus also said I and my Father are ONE. Jesus said "if you have seen me, you have seen the Father. I agree that there is only one God, but that one God consists of God the Father, God the Son, and God the Holy Spirit, all three being God.

Andrew Kingsley Raj

How is Jesus God?

God is God.

Jesus is the SON of God.



When Jesus called His Father "God" He was referring to Psalms 22, which He was teaching to the people present there. He was not complaining.

Jesus was NEVER forsaken by God.

What do we do with all Scripture that speaks of BOTH the Father and the Son? Matthew 11:27, 16:27, Mark 8:38, 13:32, Luke 1:32, John 3:35, Galatians 4:6, Hebrews 1:5, 1 John 4:14, etc. etc. etc.)

Scripture does not say "In the name of the Father, the Father, and the Holy Ghost." Matthew 28:19

God is Spirit. There are MANY scriptures on God being seen. If you read it slowly, you will see the description is in imagery.

Go get some pen & paper and write down these scriptures; then you can read them and picture God in your heart when you pray.

John 1:18, John 6:46, John 5:37

1 John 4:12, 1 John 3:6, 1 John 4:20

1 Timothy 1:17, 1 Timothy 6:16

Luke 1:31-32, Matthew 22, Romans 1:20

Philippians 2, Hebrews 1:1-13,

Colossians 1:15

Deuteronomy 4:12, 15. Exodus 3:6

Exodus 33:20-23

Isaiah 38:11, Isaiah 64:4

Job 9:11, Job 35:14, Job 23:8

This is a ps from me: if you have "pictures of God" (some artist imagined) in your home? You need to get rid of them,

According to Exodus 20. That's not a photograph of God and is considered to be a graven image. Crosses on the wall is ok, but not images.

I have 1 still life painting of a bowl of fruit and a pitcher of water. It makes me think of eating a meal with Jesus.

Mishael

No matter what your question may be,when it comes to righteousness Our Father in heaven will always do the right thing.

Yes he is real

The right hand is the dominant hand for most people. In battle, the right arm would wield the sword or draw the bowstring to shoot the arrow. A king would hold his sceptre in his right hand as a symbol of his power. To be placed at the right hand of the king would signify honor and authority given.

In Genesis 48, Israel placed his right hand of blessing on the head of Joseph's younger son Ephraim while his left hand was on the head of the firstborn son Manasseh. His right hand deliberately conferred a greater blessing on Ephraim.

Jesus Christ is the embodiment of God's right hand of power as Colossians 1 makes evident. He is also elevated to the right hand of God's throne in Heaven as declared in Romans 8:34, Ephesians 1:20, Colossians 3:1, Hebrews 1:3 and elsewhere in the scripture. David trusted the LORD as his Savior and prophetically includes this aspect of the LORD's nature in his psalms.

There were children of God from Adam to christ's death who were in abraham's bossom.

Had christ not died and resurrected, they would remain there in limbo forever.

Abraham's bossom was next door to hell in the heart of the earth, with a huge space, (chasm) separating them.

I believe jesus stood or floated between them and preached the gospel while both sides listened.

The people in hell I don't believe repented. The bible says in revelation that they still cursed God...

Those in abraham's bossom were set free and now are with the Lord in heaven.

Anyone killed for the word of God and for jesus christ, are the souls under the altar in heaven. Rev.

The dead in christ resurrect just before the rapture. And people say the rapture happens before the tribulation.

If that were true, the resurrection of dead in christ would happen first, followed by a rapture.

But that's impossible. because a resurrection happens before the rapture.

When does the bible tell us that the first resurrection happens???

Revelation 20:1-6 says the first resurrection is after the tribulation after the beheadings.

So if nobody is resurrected until after the tribulation, how can a resurrection and rapture happen before the tribulation?? It cant!!

Therefore After the tribulation, Jesus appears in the clouds and the dead in christ rise. Everyone from Adam all the way to the believers from the tribulation.

Then those who are alive and remained from the tribulation, will be caught up and changed together with those who resurrected.

They all meet jesus in air and float to mount of olives. The tribes mourn because they see Jesus descending from the air with ten thousands of his saints. Then the thrones are set up and we rule and reign with Christ for a thousand years.

Hebrews 1:8 says that only jesus is called a son of God. So the Angel's are not sons.

I understand that job calls someone sons of God but its not fallen Angel's.

May God bless all who read this.

god is real

Carlos, your questions: "what does the Bible say happened to the Tree of Knowledge? As an aside, here is another example of allegory. Psalms 104:4, Hebrews 1:7, "Now about the angels He says: "He makes His angels winds, His servants flames of fire."" So, if that is literal, how long were the Angels there protecting the Tree of Life? And if these trees are no longer there, were they cut down? What happened to them? Did more trees of knowledge grow there?"

My answers: we're not told what happened to that tree. The Psalms & Hebrews references: clearly metaphorical, but if one had to insist they were not, I wouldn't dispute it as I can't ascertain any other Scripture to support their view. No idea how long the Angels were protecting the Tree of Life: we're not told. Were they cut down, what happened to them or did more trees of knowledge grow there? No idea, except for Rev 2 & 22 references to the Tree of Life.

My connection of Adam to Christ was purely as two who possessed a sinless nature. Both had the capability to be tempted, one failed, the other passed.

My "assumption that God wanted to shield Adam and Eve from Knowledge of Good and Evil, to keep them innocent". Yes, this is my assumption based on the fact that God said to them that if they ate of the fruit or even touched it, they would die. Of course, they didn't die immediately, but sin entered & they died spiritually & eventually, physically. So, death was the direct product of disobedience & sin, but my assumption from the reading is that, since God selected that particular tree for them to stay away from, there is also the thought, that they being debarred from such knowledge was paramount in maintaining their innocence which was in God's design for mankind.

God didn't send "the most corrupt thing in His Creation into the garden". Satan came to it of his own volition & in his plan.

Thank you Bob. I believe that a baby, though born with a sin nature, cannot consciously sin. When a child arrives at the age of knowing between right & wrong (& that would be at quite an early age), then sin takes root & the child becomes a sinner. What a responsibility for Christian parents to include sharing the message of salvation to their child as well as nurturing them in other ways.

That's a pretty good answer Chris ! Also what judgements will babies have against them ? None since they are unaccountable . God promises to take care of those that have no parents and these babies would apply in my opinion. Their lives where cut short , but God will have something for them that is better . My opinion based on reading the word many years .

The Jews believe Christians are blasphemers because we believe in God the Father, Yeshua/Jesus the Son and the Holy Spirit..Why does God proclaim to be the only God in Isaiah when John 1 tells us that in reference to Yashua/Jesus..the world was made by him for him and through him and God the Father calls Jesus/Yashua god in Hebrews 1:9

We all go through the process of birth, life's journey and death. It's particularly sad when an innocent baby dies but death for all of us is because we are sinners, inheriting sin from our first parents, Adam & Eve. If there was no sin, we would live forever in holiness, peace and in God's presence. But sin has separated us from God; BUT God provided us a Way - the only Way - through His Son Jesus to get our lives right with Him. So when God looks at an innocent baby or a Christian, He sees our death as merely a transition from this life to the next. Of dead Lazarus His friend, Jesus said that he was only sleeping (Jn11:11). And God sees this of us too. But for the unbeliever, God grieves.

I am positive that babies who die are taken at once to heaven. Mark 14:16 Keep praying for them. We know WHO is taking care of them. I gather things from friends and neighbors and take them to an orphanage near me. Some people sew beanies for kids having chemo.
Take some of that pain & shower it on another child. It eases the feelings.
Ecclesiastes 3:1-8
We will see those we've loved and lost, again. I learned to ask the Holy Spirit to comfort me.

free choice not god who kills children man chose man they make everything we eat we drink even knowing things are unhealthy for human race , but we turn from God and lived our lives the way man does. so my opinion is no he does not

People want to know if we have a GOD then why does he let baby's die etc...?

Isaiah 9:6
