Regarding Jesus

Regarding Jesus, how do we relate? How can we relate? He is God. He is higher than angels! But, inorder to be the perfect substitute, he became human. Note that He was in existence before being born as a human. But became human nonetheless. The writer of Hebrews captures these important facts in chs. 1&2. This writer (unknown) writes to Jewish audience of Christian believers who have been exiled from the temple, and are now being persecuted by the gentiles. Where can they turn? This writer starts with the building block, Jesus himself. Why is He different, why should He be enough? We know scripture shows angels as mighty warriors in God's service. But they were created, and although lower than God, they were higher than man. Check out ch2v14. Jesus is the answer!
