The “Better Than” Book
Hebrews
is the “Better Than” Book. This New Testament book points the way to a better
life. In it you will find references to things that are better many, many
times. Some examples are:
Christ
is:
better
than angels – 1:4
worthy
of more glory than Moses – 3:3
the
builder of the house (the creator) and as such has more honor than the creation
- 3:4
a
great High Priest (4:4) which is better then men’s high priests – 5:1-2
Men
swear by things that are better then themselves, but God swears by Himself. Why? Because He is better than everything else. 6:13-16
It
tells of:
a
better covenant enacted on better promises – 8:6
a greater
more perfect tabernacle – 9:11
a
better possession – 10:34
a
kingdom which cannot be shaken (a better kingdom) – 12:28
and a
better city – 11:10 & 13:14
What could be better than that?
