Hebrews 1: 1 God, who at sundry times and in divers manners spake in time past unto the fathers by the prophets,
2 Hath in these last days spoken unto us by his Son, whom he hath appointed heir of all things, by whom also he made the worlds;
3 Who being the brightness of his glory, and the express image of his person, and upholding all things by the word of his power, when he had by himself purged our sins, sat down on the right hand of the Majesty on high:
God had in the old testament used prophets to speak to the people. He had spoken directly to these prophets and also had directed spoken to some of the leaders. But now and within the new testament He has spoken through the life of Christ-His Son. Christ who is Himself God within the Triune Head of Father, Son and Holy Spirit. This same Christ who formed the earth and when spoken to by the Father was reminded of His deity "8 But unto the Son he saith, Thy throne, O God, is for ever and ever: a sceptre of righteousness is the sceptre of thy kingdom.
9 Thou hast loved righteousness, and hated iniquity; therefore God, even thy God, hath anointed thee with the oil of gladness above thy fellows.
10 And, Thou, Lord, in the beginning hast laid the foundation of the earth; and the heavens are the works of thine hands:"
Christ displayed in His life upon this earth, in His Suffering on this earth, and in His death upon the cross to pay the penalty for man’s sin –He displayed the brightness of God’s Glory and the image of His person. He was perfect Righteousness who pay the penalty for man’s sin so that whosoever will accept the Gift of Salvation might be saved. Salvation, so simple; yet, for many so unreachable. Christ finished the work and sat down on the right hand of God the Father. Mankind so often remains so caught up in his own self-pride that he cannot accept the fact of his utter unworthiness before perfect righteousness and perfect Glory of God; so, he continues to try to prove to God his own worthiness rather than accept the gift. I have no righteousness but that which is imparted to me by the Son. The more I know of Christ and His Glory the more unworthy I realize that I am; yet, in that same moment the overflowing love that He has given to me becomes my guide through life. He has become my greatest treasure and my greatest love. That fact draws me to seek Him and savor Him more as He continues to complete the work within me of transforming me into His image. Do you know Him?
