The World to Come (Heb. 2:5-9)

Hebrews 2:5-9

For He did not subject to angels the world to come, concerning which we are speaking. But one has testified somewhere, saying,

“What is man, that You remember him?
Or the son of man, that You are concerned about him?
“You have made him for a little while lower than the angels;
You have crowned him with glory and honor,
And have appointed him over the works of Your hands;
You have put all things in subjection under his feet.”

For in subjecting all things to him, He left nothing that is not subject to him. But now we do not yet see all things subjected to him.

But we do see Him who was made for a little while lower than the angels, namely, Jesus, because of the suffering of death crowned with glory and honor, so that by the grace of God He might taste death for everyone.

I am a sinner saved by the Lord Jesus Christ. He alone could satisfy the wrath of God that I justly deserved, change my heart through the regenerating work of the Holy Spirit, and bring any eternal meaning from my creaturely existence. I am married, have three beautiful children, and was ordained to the gospel ministry in May of 2012.
