The Son Is Superior to Angels

AFTER ADAM FOR THE FIRST TIME COMMITTED SIN FOREVER CHANGING HIS NATURE IN SUCH A FUNDAMENTAL WAY THAT NEITHER HIM NOR HIS POSTERITY COULD EVER UNDUE THE DAMAGE CAUSED
GOD AT THE APPOINTED TIME SENT CHRIST INTO THE WORLD TO LIVE HOW ADAM SHOULD HAVE LIVED. ADAM SHOULD HAVE DONE THE RIGHT THING AND REMAINED FAITHFUL TO GOD’S WORD BUT HE DID NOT. SO THE WORD HIMSELF IN WHO’S IMAGE MAN WAS CREATED CAME TO EARTH AS A MAN AND HE LIVED FAITHFUL TO GOD.
AND AFTER A FAITHFUL LIFE LIVED ON EARTH HE NOW AS THE GOD-MAN SITS ON HIS THRONE NEXT TO GOD BC OF THAT FAITHFULNESS BECAUSE OF THAT RIGHTEOUSNESS LIVING.
4 Thus he became so far better than the angels as he has inherited a name superior to theirs.
AS THE ETERNAL SON OF GOD THROUGH WHOM THE ANGELS WHERE MADE COL:1 16
CHRIST WAS ALREADY GREATER THAN THE ANGELS THIS VERSE SPEAKS OF HOW AS NOW HAVING ENTERED MANKIND MANKIND BEING LOWER IN POWER AND AUTHORITY THAN THE ANGELS HE (THOUGH A MAN) NOW BECOMES GREATER THAN ANGELS BC OF HIS PERFECT RIGHTEOUSNESS AS A MAN. THIS SHOULD NOT BE SURPRISING WHEN WE CONSIDER THE MOTIF THAT RUNS THRU OUT THE BIBLE UNDER VARIOUS DESIGINATIONS AND IN DIFFERENT CONTEXT THAT MOTIF OF THE ONE WHOM SHOULD BE IN THE PLACE OF PRIVLEDGE AND STATUS BEING SUPERCEDED BY THE LESSER
ALL THRU OUT HISTORY AND IN THE MAJORITY OF CULTURES THE FIRST BORN SON IS THE CHOSEN ONE THE ONE WHO IS TO INHERIT THE KINGDOM AND TO BE SERVED BY ALL OTHERS WE SEE THIS IN EVERYTHING FROM MONARCHIES TO FARMING FAMILIES BUT IN THE BIBLE ALL THOUGH THIS PRACTICE IS PRESCRIBED IT IS CONSISTENTLY UPENDED BY GOD
CAINS OFFERING REJECTED ABEL HIS YOUNGER BROTHERS SACRFICE ACCEPTED
ISAAC THE YOUNGER BEING THE SON OF PROMISE RATHER THN ISHMAEL THE OLDER
JACOB CHOSEN OVER ESAU
DAVID THE YOUNGEST MADE KING
THE NATION OF ISRAEL OR WHOS COMMONLY REFERRED TO AS THE FIRST BORN SON OF GOD reject the messiah FOR A SEASON ONLY TO HAVE THE GENTILES WHO GOD DID NOT ORIGNALLY CHOSE TO BECOME ABRAHAMS DECENDANTS and then israel to be grafted back in after the time of the gentiles

Questions to ask the text
Ae text
Why the need for cleansing of sin?
We ask bc the language is just not forgiveness or just God loving the sinner its God cleansing the sinner
Because in the beginning man had direct relationship with God.
Man was born with the faculties to know God communicate with God obey the word of God
THIS IS PART OF WHAT IS MEANT TO BE CREATED IN God's image-lets us make
MANkind BEFORE we questioned what true life was and how to obtain it we exercise dominion control and live a life of perfect execution of God’s will in the earth what is his will his will is express
Have dominon power control -do not eat from the tree
dominon n authority do not eat from tree. and. Man had full knowledge of his complete dependence on God man was completely and unreservedly inclined to worship God and God only God makes a covenant with man
After all Man was made in the imago dei of God and with that image of God came
glory and honor
Glory expressed in mankind by having authority power and control over the whole earth and everything in it
AUTHORITY
CREATIVITY
GOODNESS
But then came the fall
Animated worldview marker
thru a coversation with the the serpent eve entertained the idea that God’s description of ultimate reality – u eat u die may not be true.
The serpent entices eve to judge for herself whether or not its in her best interest to eat the
So instead of obedience to the word of God she will trust in her senses the look of the tree the promise of knowledge and human floushing that the fruit will bring eve convinces herself that it is in her best interest to ignore what the word of God says.

Jesus was plan A
And the rolling out of the plan is what the entire bible is about the message about Jesus and salvation does not start in the new test with matthew it starts in
And this plan of redemption for all of creation man and earth is what God incrementally communicates in various ways thru the Hebrew fathers and prophets and then finally and fully reveals and more importantly accomplishes thru His Eternal son JESUS
Now man who from creation was inclined to worship the creator with the faculties needed for worship..still intact which are reason conscience judgement,self awarenesss, introspection and
the like is now inclined to pervert the use of said faculties using them to worship created things rather than the creator in other words it was
And the ground the entire earth itself and everything in it was also cursed bcause of what adam did.
The sin principle
As for sin in humanity its vitally important to understand sin is not just an action not just something you do sin is part of human nature its an attitude it’s a subconscious predisposition:
1) to desire ungodly things the sin principle that is now part of mankinds constitution causes us to choose the bad even
2)when we want to do the good the sin principle sometimes makes us feel guilty when we’ve done nothing wrong and at other times
3) allows us rationalizes and justifies our wrong doing with
clever arguments and creative caveats
