引言:

有一位杂技演员，在很高很长的钢丝上来去自如；后来，他又在钢丝上骑自行车，并在车上带上重百斤的砂袋，车技高超，众人喝彩步止。
演员转向观众，问道：“我能带一个人过去，你们信不信？”
又是一阵欢呼，群众皆说“相信”。站在观众前排的一男青年喊得最响，表演者对他说：“好！就请你上来！”
“要我上来干什么？”青年问。
“坐在我的车上啊！”
“他说我不敢”•••
“有一位小女孩“说”我敢•••••

一、进入安息的应许 （V1-10）

“安息”神在六日创造完成以后，到第七日，神就歇了祂一切的工， 安息了 3-4节
“安息”原文意思是停止活动，表示休息
“安息”不是一般的安息，指神原先完成天地创造所进入的 “安息”神本身的安息。人因信得以有分于这安息，身体与灵魂得救赎，进入那永远真的安息。9-10
“安息”心灵上的安息。灵里随时与主心相契合相交，灵内相通，在祂里面得享安息。

二、进入安息的劝勉 （V11-13）

「竭力」快快地，赶紧，殷勤，形容暴力夺取
“竭力”信靠、仰望主。

三、进入安息的祭司 （V14-16）

耶稣超过一切执政的、掌权的、有能的、主治的，有名的；今世的，来世的都超过了。弗1：21
尊荣的大祭司―蒙神悦纳的地位 V14
神的儿子耶稣—生命合一的关系V16
神人和好中保—体恤人的软弱V15

总结：

我们的神非常渴望我们能与祂一同安息，神六日创造第七日安息了，上帝为以色列人预备迦南地为美好安息之地，但他们因着不信无法进入这安息之地。神期望今天的教会能在基督里真正的安息。经上说：我们大祭司并非不能体恤我们的软弱。他也曾凡事受过试探，与我们一样，只是他没有犯罪。我们只管坦然无惧地来到施恩的宝座前，为要得怜恤，蒙恩惠，作随时的帮助。

Hebrews 4: Enter the Lord’s Rest
GK611 Morning Devotion
07/01/2022
Speaker: Rev Moses Li + Rev David Tan

Introduction:

There is an acrobat, on a very high and long wire coming and going freely; later, he rode a bicycle on the wire, and in the bicycle with a hundred pounds of sandbags, with outstanding riding skills, the crowd applauded excitedly.
The actor turned to the audience and asked, “Do you believe that I can bring a person over?”
Another cheer, the crowd all said “believe”. A young man standing in the front row of the audience shouted the loudest, and the performer said to him, “Good! Please come up!”
“What do you want me to come up here for?” The youth asked.
“Sit on my bicycle!”
“He said I wouldn’t dare”…
“There was a little girl” who said “I dare to —–

1. The Promise of Entering Rest (V1-10)

God “rested” on the seventh day after the completion of the six days of creation, and He rested from all His works verse 3-4.
The original word “rest” means to cease activity, to rest.
The word “rest” is not a general rest, but refers to the “rest” of God Himself, which God entered when He completed the creation of heaven and earth. By faith man is able to partake of this rest, to be saved in body and soul, and to enter into that eternal and true rest. 9-10
“Rest” spiritual rest. Spiritual communion with the Lord at all times, spiritual communion, and rest in Him.

2. The Exhortation to Enter Into Rest (V11-13)

To “exert oneself” quickly, hastily, diligently, to take by violence
“Strive” to trust and look upon the Lord.

3. The Priest Who Enters Into Rest (V14-16)

Far above all principality and power and might and dominion, and every name that is named, not only in this age but also in that which is to come. Eph 1:21
Honorable High Priest – God-pleasing status V14
Jesus, the Son of God – Unity of life V16
God’s reconciliation – Compassion for the weakness of man V15

Conclusion:

Our God desires very much that we should rest with Him. God rested on the seventh day from all His work which He had done, and God prepared a good resting place for Israel in the land of Canaan, but they could not enter this resting place because of their unbelief. God hopes for the church today to have true rest in Christ. It is written: Our high priest is not incapable of sympathizing with our weaknesses. He was tempted in all things, just as we are, but he did not sin. Let us come to the throne of grace without fear, in order to obtain mercy and favor, and to be a helper at all times.

引言: 一个人的身份有多尊贵？有时候会关系到他是跟谁做工。

一、尽忠于神的家（V1-6）

1.同蒙天召圣洁弟兄啊（V1）

何等神圣荣耀的拣选与呼召，这是我们尊贵的身份与定位。
这份呼召被赋予一个非凡的生命，圣经形容为【圣洁】。这是神给我们的身价，我们岂能不好好保守自己呢？

2.思想为神家尽忠的主（V2）

主耶稣的呼召是成为救恩的使者；祂的身份却是大祭司。祂的职责是在神的家忠心。
主是救恩的成就者，我们是救恩的见证人和传递者。祂是大祭司，我们是世人与神中间的代祷祭司，行驶神权柄的君尊祭司。主耶稣在神的家尽忠，成为我们的榜样，我们岂不也当在神的家尽忠吗？

3.放胆坚持可夸的盼望（V6）

如今我们在教会神的家，在这里参与事奉，即是为将来永恒的家作实习。学习忠心的为神做事，存着盼望，带着胆量（即使有考验和难处），都要坚持到底。最终才是真正神的一家人。

想想你在神家尽忠吗？你要如何尽忠于神的家？去服事有需要的人，作神的家里的事，意思说哪里有需要就去那里。你有这样的心志，你有这样的行动，并且过得清清洁洁，这就是忠于神的家。

二、坚信听神的话（V7-19）

1.硬心的问题（V7-11）

圣灵有话说，只可惜人往往听不到。神说话可以透过异象、感动、启示，甚至说所读的经文。但是人如果不愿意领受，不愿意听从，人就心里越来越刚硬，这就有祸了！人最大的问题就是【不听】，不听的问题在于硬心！不肯听劝，不肯悔改，不愿受教。

神怎么对付不听话的孩子呢？最终失去所应许的安息、失去所应许的佳美产业。并且一辈子就不断的绕旷野，甚至最终都死在旷野。到死都不明白这是神的作为，人是死于自己的硬心。

2.不信的问题（V12-19）

（1.）不信就是离弃永生神！ （V12）回到罪恶的死路！
（2.）被迷惑内心变得刚硬。 （V13）不肯低头死不改！
（3.）信心就需要坚持到底。 （V14）唯有坚信是出路。
（4.）不信硬心会遭惹神怒。 （V15）神若发怒人死定！
（5.）不信就要面对旷野路。 (V17）旷野漂流是咒诅！
（6.）不信则没有了安息日。 (V18）日子幸苦无安宁！

所谓相信其实就是信神的应许，只要坚定保守自己的信心，在神绝对没有难成的事。

总结：认定身份活出呼召

认真看到自己在神面前的呼召和身份，我们无论从事什么行业？只要看神的“天召”为正业，世界上的工作为副业。

我们就要活出超级无敌的属天人生，直到全宇宙的主亲自向教会显现，向我们施恩，充满了神迹奇事。

Hebrews 3: The Holy Heavenly Calling
Gk611 Morning Devotion
06/01/2022
Speaker: Rev David Tan

Introduction: How honourable is a person? Sometimes it will matter who he is working for.

1. Be Faithful To The House Of God (v1-6)

(1) Holy Brothers Who Are Called to Holiness By God (v1)

What a divine and glorious election and calling, which is our honored identity and position.

This calling is given an extraordinary life, which the Bible describes as [holiness]. This is the stature that God has given us. Can we not keep ourselves well?

(2) The Lord Who Thinks of Being Faithful For The House of God (v2)

Jesus’ calling was to be a messenger of salvation; but His identity was that of a high priest. His duty is to be faithful in the house of God.

The Lord is the achiever of salvation; we are the witnesses and bearers of salvation. He is the High Priest, and we are the intercessory priests between the world and God, the royal priests who travel the authority of God. The Lord Jesus has been faithful in the house of God and has become an example for us, shall we not also be faithful in the house of God?

(3) Boldly Holding On To The Hope that We Can Boast (v6)

Today we are in the church, God’s house, and our participation in ministry here is an internship for the eternal home of the future. Learn to work faithfully for God, with hope, with boldness (even when there are trials and difficulties), and to persevere to the end. In the end, we will be a true family of God.

Think about your faithfulness in the house of God? How are you going to be faithful in the house of God? Go and serve the needy and work in the house of God, which means go there wherever there is a need. You are faithful to the house of God when you have such a heart and mind, when you act in such a way and live cleanly.

2. Firmly Believe In Hearing The Word of God (v7-19)

(1) The problem Of Hard Heart (v7-11)

The Holy Spirit has something to say, but unfortunately people often do not hear it. God can speak through visions, inspiration, revelations, and even through the scriptures that are read. But if man is not willing to receive and obey, he becomes more and more hardened in his heart, and woe to him! The greatest problem of man is [not listening], and the problem of not listening is hardness of heart! Unwilling to listen, unwilling to repent, unwilling to be taught.

How does God deal with disobedient children? In the end, they lose the promised rest and the promised good inheritance. And he kept going around the wilderness all his life, and even died in the wilderness. He died without understanding that this was the work of God, and that man died because of his own hardness of heart.

(2) The Problem Of Unbelief (v12-19)

(1.) To disbelieve is to forsake the living God! (V12.) To return to the deadly path of sin!
(2.) Deceived and hardened inside. (V13) refuse to bow down and die!
(3.) Faith requires perseverance to the end. (V14) The only way out is to believe.
(4.) Unbelief and hardness of heart will provoke the wrath of God. (V15) If God is angry, people will die!
(5.) Unbelief will face the wilderness road. (V17) Wilderness drifting is a curse!
(6.) If you don’t believe, there is no more Sabbath. (V18) There is no peace in the days of misery!

Believing is actually believing in God’s promises. As long as one keeps one’s faith firmly, there is absolutely nothing difficult to accomplish in God.

Conclusion: Recognise Identity and Living Out Calling

Seriously see our calling and identity before God, no matter what industry we are in? Just look at God’s “heavenly calling” as our main job, and the work of the world as our secondary job.

We must live a superb heavenly life until the Lord of the universe himself appears to the church and shows us grace, full of signs and wonders.

引言: 玉不琢不成器

一块玉石从矿山里开采出来，不经过打磨或雕刻就不能成为美玉，更无法加工成有用或值钱的器皿。人也相仿，因着原罪的问题，生命中有许多软弱、老我、罪恶，若不经过磨练、雕琢，也无法成为神手中的剑。人生的许多苦难都是因为生命里罪的问题所带来的咒诅。但爱我们的神却将错就错的使用苦难来磨练和雕琢我们的生命，使我们的生命能脱去老亚当的罪性，走在得胜和蒙福的路上。

一、苦难后必得将来的冠冕（V1-9）

1. 郑重所听见救恩之道（V1-4）

所听见的道理 – 主要是指基督
救恩的道理借着天使所传的话 – 指旧约律法
随流失去 – 不知觉的漂离正确方向、让已经得着的被冲走

犹太人既对天使所传，旧约的律法都这么尊重，岂不更当越发郑重所听见，基督救恩的道理。

基督徒所面对的挑战不是否认救恩的功效，而是忽略了行事为人要与所蒙的恩相称。当我们没有郑重所听的，生命就会像没有锚的船被海浪打翻，或是像河中的浮木一样随流失去。我们可能因为许多外在的原因，可能是压力、惧怕、小信、自卑、甚至过往的经验或理性思维觉得很难遵行，所以听了却不愿回应。很常我们以为无大碍，最多不是保持原状。但是在属灵的道路上，它其实就像长江后浪推前浪，不进则退。忽略了主的救恩之道，必会使我们后退，并失去许多神的祝福，绝对不可能是保持原状。

此外，人的心很容易被所看见所听见的东西给带动，让各式各样的潮流、歪理、学说给吸引而去追随。因此，我们要熟读圣经，在真理上站稳，勿让错误的思想和教导影响我们，更不要让肉体、眼目的情欲和今生的骄傲，使我们忽略了神的救恩而离开神。

2. 受死为得将来的冠冕（V5-9）

神让耶稣暂时比天使微小一点，其实是为了把一切荣耀给祂，并叫万有都服在祂脚下。荣耀尊贵的冠冕是主耶稣用生命，为人人尝了死味，经历了受死的苦而换取的。因此，我们若要经历得胜，得荣耀的冠冕，就必须要致死身上的老我。

要致死生命中的许多老我，放下对身边人的期待，其实是非常不容易的。尤其是像我这样，要把50多年来已经定型的老我，像剥洋葱那样一层层的剥开，真的是很痛，有时真的很想放弃。但是，属灵生命若不死就不能生；我们这活着的人，若能常为耶稣被交于死地，就能使耶稣的生，在我们这必死的身上显明出来。求神赐我们力量能坚持到底，因为苦难后必得将来的冠冕。

其次，耶稣为成就神的旨意，甘心卑微。试想在天堂，祂原本是被天使尊崇和服事，高高在上的万王之王。但来到这世上，却要被放在比天使小一点的位置。但主并不在乎，因知道这世上的一切都是短暂的，祂来的目的是完成神的托付。弟兄姐妹，我们的盼望乃在将来的世界；这世界和其上的情欲都要过去，惟独遵行神旨意的，是永远常存。求神帮助我们，把眼目定睛在神国的使命上，一生紧紧跟随主，完成神的托付。

二、依靠基督迈向得胜之路（V10-18）

1. 得胜死亡的惧怕 （V11-15）

曾经就听过一位殡仪馆的负责人分享。他说基督徒和其他人死的容颜是不一样的。基督徒的样子感觉上比较安详。没信主的人面对死亡，大都是惧怕和忧虑的，因为不知道闭上眼睛后会去到哪里。但是，对神儿女来说，因着耶稣的救恩，我们清楚地知道，走完今生的路程，神应许我们会回到永恒的天家与祂同在。因此，死亡对基督徒来说是充满盼望的提升，所以已经得胜了死亡的惧怕，所以可以卸下今生的劳苦，安详的离开到天堂享福。

请问有没有会怕死的基督徒呢？有！

我本身觉得基督徒会怕死，其中一个可能性是对神还不够认识和信任。尤其做父母的，常会觉得如果我死了，孩子怎么办？但是，我们对孩子的爱和能为孩子做的，绝对比不上神祂能为这孩子做的。其次，怕死的人，是为自己而活；不怕死的人，是为别人而活。为自己而活的基督徒怕死，因为灵里知道，面对主时无法交帐。所以，弟兄姐妹，透过今天的经文，我们也可以尝试问问自己，我怕死吗？

2. 得胜仇敌的试探（V16-18）

因为主耶稣自己受过试探，而且得胜有余，所以当我们被试探时，必能靠着祂得胜。而且当我们落在试探与痛苦中时，祂会像母亲一听到婴儿的哭声，立刻快步前来呵护那样的来搭救我们。并在关键时刻加给我们力量，帮助我们得胜试探。

总结：不放弃就有出路

•没有苦难，人就不知道什么是得胜的喜乐。求主赐我们在苦难中，不但能郑重所听见的救恩之道，更是能靠主治死生命中的许多老我。

•在苦难中，只要不放弃，在神里面就一定有出路。因为神允许苦难临到，是要雕琢我们的生命，使我们迈向得胜再得胜的蒙福之路，且得着那将来的荣耀冠冕！

Hebrews 2: Tribulation Is The Way To Victory!
Gk611 Morning Devotion
05/01/2022
Speaker: Ps Deborah Tan + Rev David Tan

Introduction: Jade cannot become a vessel unless it is carved

A piece of jade mined from the mine cannot become a beautiful jade without being polished or carved, it even cannot be processed into a useful or valuable vessel. Similarly, because of the problem of original sin, there are many weaknesses, old selves, and sins in life, which cannot become swords in the hands of God without being honed and sculpted. Many sufferings in life are due to the curse brought by the problem of sin in life. But God, who loves us, uses suffering to sharpen and refine our lives, so that our lives can shed the sinful nature of the old Adam and walk in the way of victory and blessing. Title: Tribulation is the way of victory!

1. The crown of the future shall come after the tribulation (v1-9)

(1) Heard the Word of Salvation Solemnly (v1-4)

The truths heard – mainly the truth of Christ’s salvation
By the word of the angel – referring to the law of Old Testament
Drifting away – unknowingly drifting away from the right direction, letting what has been gained be washed away

If the Jews had such respect for the law of the Old Testament, which was preached by angels, how much more should they respect the doctrine of salvation by Christ, which they had heard?

The challenge for Christians is not because they deny the efficacy of salvation, but is the neglect to act in a way that is worthy of the grace they have received. When we do not take seriously what we have heard, our lives can be tossed over like a boat without an anchor, or drifted away like driftwood in a river. We may hear but not respond because of many external reasons, such as stress, fear, little faith, low self-esteem, or even past experiences or rational thinking that makes it difficult to follow. Often we think it’s okay, or at best we would stay the same. But in the spiritual path, it is like a wave that pushes its way forward, if you do not move forward, you go backward. Neglecting the Lord’s way of salvation will cause us to fall back and lose many of God’s blessings, and it is impossible to stay the same.

Moreover, the human heart is easily driven by what it sees and hears, and is attracted to follow all kinds of trends, distortions, and doctrines. Therefore, we must read the Bible well, stand firm in the truth, and not let false thoughts and teachings influence us, and not let the flesh, the lust of the eyes, and the pride of this life cause us to neglect God’s salvation and turn away from Him.

(2) Died to Receive the Crown of the Future (v5-9)

God made Jesus temporarily lower than the angels, in order to give Him all glory and to bring all things under His feet. The crown of glory and honor was given by the Lord Jesus in exchange for His life, having tasted death and experienced the suffering of death for all. Therefore, if we want to experience victory and receive the crown of glory, we must die to the old self.

It is not easy to kill the old self in life and let go of the expectations of the people around you. Especially like me, it really hurts to peel away the old self that has been set for over 50 years, like an onion, and sometimes I really want to give up. But spiritual life cannot be born without death; if we, the living, can always be delivered to death for Jesus, we can make the life of Jesus visible in us, who are bound to die. Pray that God will give us the strength to persevere to the end, for after suffering we will receive the crown of the future.

Secondly, Jesus was willing to humble Himself in order to accomplish God’s will. Imagine that in heaven He was originally exalted and served by the angels, the King of kings on high. But when He came to this earth, He was put in a position a little lower than the angels. But the Lord did not care, knowing that everything in this world is transient, and that He came to fulfill God’s commission. Our hope, brothers and sisters, is in the world to come; this world and its lusts will pass away, but he who does the will of God abides forever. Pray that God would help us to fix our eyes on the mission of the kingdom of God, to follow the Lord closely all our lives, and to fulfill God’s commission.

2. Relying on Christ for the Way of Victory (v10-18)

(1) Victory over The Fear of Death (v11-15)

I once heard a funeral director share. He said that Christians and others look different when they die. Christians look and feel more peaceful. Most unbelievers face death with fear and apprehension because they don’t know where they will go when they close their eyes. However, for God’s children, because of Jesus’ salvation, we know clearly that after walking the journey of this life, God promises that we will return to be with Him in the eternal heavenly home. Therefore, death for Christians is an elevation full of hope, so that the fear of death has been overcome, so that the labors of this life can be unloaded and peacefully left to enjoy the blessings of heaven.

Are there any Christians who are afraid to die? Yes!

I think one of the reasons Christians are afraid to die is because they don’t know and trust God enough. Especially as parents, we often feel that if I die, what will happen to my children? But the love we have for our children and what we can do for them is absolutely nothing compared to what God can do for them. Secondly, those who are afraid of death live for themselves; those who are not afraid of death live for others. Christians who live for themselves are afraid to die because they know in their spirit that they cannot pay their accounts when they face the Lord. So, brothers and sisters, through today’s scripture, we can also try to ask ourselves, am I afraid of death?

(2) Victory over the temptations of the enemy (v16-18)

Because the Lord Jesus Himself was tempted and overcame, we will be able to overcome through Him when we are tempted. And when we fall into temptation and pain, He will come to our rescue like a mother who hears the cry of a baby and immediately comes to nurse it. He will give us strength at the critical moment and help us to overcome the temptation.

Conclusion: If you don’t give up, there is a way out

●Without suffering, man does not know what the joy of victory is. Pray that in the midst of suffering, we may not only solemnize the way of salvation we have heard, but also condemn many old selves in our lives by the Lord.

●In the midst of suffering, there must be a way out in God, as long as we do not give up. For God allows tribulation to come in order to refine our lives, so that we may move on to the blessed path of victory and regaining the crown of glory that is to come!

04/01/2022

引言:

背景：希伯来书是一封写给希伯来教会的信，作者不详，收信人极有可能是犹太基督徒。本书也因此命名为希伯来书。

作者有两个主要目的，第一就是高举耶稣为至高的君王，祂配得我们全身心的信靠和奉献。第二就是鼓励身在逼迫中的信徒继续持守信心。

今天当我们进入第一章经文的时候，其实就是会看到作者的第一个写作目的，并且作者还根据当时以色列人的信仰背景去把耶稣和天使做出对比，来让我们看到神儿子耶稣的超越性。

一、与神同等创造主（V1-3）

耶稣乃是神给人最高的启示。

如果父神是太阳，那耶稣就是太阳的光；如果父神是印章戒指，那耶稣就是盖出来的印。

耶稣这位对着我们说话，也为我们钉死在十字架后复活的主，祂其实就是神，祂就是创造宇宙万物，维持宇宙万物运作的那一位，祂与神的位置是同等的。

应用：我们看见了主，就能够看见天父！认识我们的主耶稣，才能认识天父，经历天父的爱！

二、超越天使的圣子（V4-14）

原来根据犹太传统的教导，摩西在西奈山上所领受的律法和神的话，其实是由天使，而不是神自己去传递的。因此这里讲到耶稣超乎天使，作者就是要宣告传递天国福音的耶稣要高过以往所有传递神话语的天使。

1. 天使不是神儿子 (V4-5)

耶稣既然承受着神儿子的名，就比天使的名更为尊贵，祂超越了一切的天使。

2. 天使都要拜圣子（V6-12）

作者开始表达，天使都要拜神的儿子耶稣。一切的天使其实都是在耶稣的管理之下。

3. 天使乃服役的灵（V13-14）

天使其实只是服役的灵体，他们就是奉神差遣去服事一切因着相信耶稣而领受救恩的人的。

这章经文第二部分的应用：

1）一切属灵上的领受，哪怕从天使来的领受，都不能越过神儿子所说过的话（首先是圣经中耶稣的原话，其次是神已经认可并允许人在圣灵感动下写下来在圣经中的话）。

2）基督徒要留心异端和错误信仰的教导，人是不当敬拜天使的。人倾向于会去敬拜那在灵界中有能力的，所以人甚至会去敬拜撒旦，但这完全不合乎真理。我们要单单敬拜神！

3）天使是服役的灵，奉差遣为那将要承受救恩的人效力。在争战祷告中，我们可以在神的心意中，奉神儿子耶稣的圣名，去支取这一个属灵的权柄！

总结：认定超越的圣子耶稣

•认识主耶稣，才能认识到慈爱的天父！
•单单敬拜耶稣，扎根神的话，胜过个人在属灵上的领受和经历！
•奉神儿子耶稣的圣名，支取天使要为我们这些要承受救恩之人效力的权柄！

Hebrews 1: The transcendent Son of Jesus
GK611 Morning Devotion
04/01/2022
Speaker: IP Moses + Rev David Tan

Introduction:

Background: The book of Hebrews is a letter to the Hebrew Church, the author of which is unknown, and the addressee is most likely a Jewish Christian. The book is also named Hebrews for this reason.

The author has two main purposes, the first is to exalt Jesus as the supreme King, who is worthy of our full trust and devotion. The second is to encourage believers in the midst of persecution to continue to keep the faith.

Today, as we enter the first chapter, we see the first purpose of the author’s writing and the contrast between Jesus and the angels in the context of Israel’s faith at the time, to show us the transcendence of Jesus, the Son of God.

1. Equal with God, The Creator (V1-3)

Jesus is the highest revelation of God to man.
If God the Father is the sun, then Jesus is the light of the sun; if God the Father is the seal ring, then Jesus is the stamped out seal.

Jesus, the Lord who spoke to us and who rose again after His crucifixion for us, is in fact God, He is the One who created all things in the universe and who sustains the functioning of all things in the universe, and He is in the same position as God.

Application: When we see the Lord, we are able to see the Father! Knowing our Lord Jesus is the only way to know the Father and experience His love!

2. The Son Who Transcends The Angels (V4-14)

It turns out that according to the teachings of Jewish tradition, the law and the word of God that Moses received on Mount Sinai were actually delivered by angels, not by God Himself. So by speaking here of Jesus being above the angels, the author is declaring that Jesus, who delivers the gospel of the kingdom, will be above all the angels who have delivered God’s word in the past.

(1) Angels Are Not the Sons of God (v4-5)

Since Jesus bears the name of the Son of God, He is more exalted than the name of angels, and He surpasses all angels

(2) All Angels Shall Worship the Son (v6-12)

The author begins to express that all angels are to worship Jesus, the Son of God. All angels are actually under the authority of Jesus.

(3) Angels are Ministering Spirits (v13-14)

Angels are really just ministering spirit beings who are sent by God to minister to all those who receive salvation through faith in Jesus.
Application of the second part of this chapter of Scripture:

1) All spiritual inspirations, even those from angels, cannot transgress the words spoken by the Son of God (first, the original words of Jesus in the Bible, and second, the words that God has approved and allowed men to write down in the Bible under the influence of the Holy Spirit)

2) Christians should beware of the teaching of cult and false beliefs that man should not worship angels. Man is inclined to worship those who have power in the spiritual realm, so that he may even worship Satan, but this is totally untrue. We are to worship God alone!

3) Angels are ministering spirits sent to work for those who will receive salvation. In prayer for warfare, we can take up this spiritual authority in the mind of God and in the name of Jesus, the Son of God!

Conclusion: Identifying the Transcendent Son of Jesus

Knowing the Lord Jesus is the only way to know the loving Father!

Worshiping Jesus alone, rooted in the word of God, is better than personal spiritual inspiration and experience!

In the name of Jesus, the Son of God, take the authority of the angels to work for us who are to receive salvation!
