The Humiliation of the Incarnation

February 27, 2022 • Dr. Jeff Schwarzentraub • Hebrews 2:9–18

In this message, we discuss the incarnation of Jesus Christ and the humility He endured on our behalf. Jesus Christ, as the second person of the Trinity, has always existed and yet just over 2000 years ago He put on flesh and became a man. In humility, Jesus Christ came to earth, fulfilled the law, died on the cross and rose from the dead so that we who have sinned and are deserving death may be completely forgiven and may experience the Life of Christ. While many Christians understand the concept of the incarnation many have not spent the time growing in an understanding of the humility of what Christ endured for us. The author of Hebrews wants us to understand that Jesus Christ was willing to be humiliated so that we could be in a right relationship with God. As you listen to this message and engage with the questions below may God give you a greater awareness of all of His work to demonstrate His love for you.

The Supremacy of Jesus Christ

February 6, 2022 • Dr. Jeff Schwarzentraub • Hebrews 1:1–3

In the first three verses of Hebrews seven attributes of our Lord and Savior are listed. Each of these attributes are extremely powerful and exclusive. Just a casual reading of the book of Hebrews causes the reader to pause and understand that Jesus Christ is the premier prophet, priest and king. When understood properly the book continues to ask the reader, “How are you going to respond to the greatness of Jesus Christ?” Throughout our study we are going to see the greatness of Jesus Christ on display and will then be forced to respond to His greatness. This sermon series is going to be a great journey and if you seek the Lord and open your heart you will be in a deeper and more mature place with the Lord when this study is complete. So, let’s get started and begin to understand the greatness of our God.

Greater than Angels

February 13, 2022 • Dr. Jeff Schwarzentraub • Hebrews 1:4–14

Angels are spiritual beings created by God for the purpose of serving and worshipping Him. They were used of God to bring the law to the Jews and are seen throughout Scripture as powerful messengers and worshippers of God. The author of Hebrews through the wisdom of the Holy Spirit wants us to know that Jesus Christ is greater than the angels because of what He possesses. Throughout this message we discussed the superiority of Jesus Christ and why this is important for the believer. As you listen to the message and answer the following questions may your heart be stirred to the importance of understand that Jesus Christ is superior to angels.

Pay Close Attention

February 20, 2022 • Dr. Jeff Schwarzentraub • Hebrews 2:1–8

“May I have your attention, please?” This question may perk our interest but often times we are simply reminded of a truth we already understand. Therefore, at times when we are warned we simply do not pay attention to the warning. This can be very true for us in our relationship with God. Sometimes when we read or hear warning passages read, we think this is a passage for someone else because “I know that I am already saved.” However, the purpose of warning passages instructs the believer and admonishes the unbeliever to be sincere about their relationship with Jesus Christ. At times, warning passages can be challenging but they are essential for us to continue in a right relationship with God. As you listen to the message this week, open your heart and allow God to do some “spiritual surgery” on you so that you can experience a greater measure of His grace.
