This morning we looked at "Jesus--Greater than the Angels." Hebrews 1:3b-14 informed us of four ways that Jesus was better than the angels. He had a better ministry (he made purification for sins), he had a better positions (he was seated), he had a better place (he was at the right hand of God), and he had a better name (Son). Jesus was the Son who did the will of his Father, the angels are merely servants. The author emphasizes Jesus superiority to the angels, because he is the eternal Son of God, the Creator and Redeemer of the world. Remember angels are great, but Jesus is greater.
This evening I took a stab at doing a new members/believers type discipleship class. I wasn't thrilled with the way it went. It seemed to rushed and information heavy. We went over part of Monticello's doctrinal confession (our Articles of the Faith). I fear "new believers" would have been overwhelmed. Those of you who were there help me to make it better, more user friendly, more helpful and encouraging. If you weren't there, but have been to a new members/believers class that you found helpful--let me know about it.
