Can one underestimate the value of Jesus? I almost feel blasphemous for raising the question, but I think we can get complacent and dulled to the extreme worthiness of our Savior. Maybe its because He has become a means to an end (i.e. Heaven) rather than the means and the end. I simply raise these questions today to challenge us to consider Christ in all of His awesome, glorious majesty.
I am beginning what will probably be, by God's grace, a two year journey through the book of Hebrews. Step one on that journey is verses 1-4 of chapter 1. Would you pause with me and reflect on these verses? There is enough there for several sermons (or blog entries), but I would humbly ask that you prayerfully, thoughtfully, worshipfully absorb what God has to say about His Son.

Hebrews 1
1Long ago, at many times and in many ways, God spoke to our fathers by the prophets, 2but in these last days he has spoken to us by his Son, whom he appointed the heir of all things, through whom also he created the world. 3He is the radiance of the glory of God and the exact imprint of his nature, and he upholds the universe by the word of his power. After making purification for sins, he sat down at the right hand of the Majesty on high, 4having become as much superior to angels as the name he has inherited is more excellent than theirs.
