Lost and Found (Hebrews 2:5-9)

This week we will study Hebrews 2:5-9 as the writer explains man's destiny in light of man's present plight which is living in a sinful body in a sinful world. The title of the message, "Lost & Found," is a picture of God restoring men to their rightful position as Jesus died and removed the curse for all who believe in Him.

Hebrews 2:5–9 (Listen)

For it was not to angels that God subjected the world to come, of which we are speaking. It has been testified somewhere,

  “What is man, that you are mindful of him,
    or the son of man, that you care for him?
  You made him for a little while lower than the angels;
    you have crowned him with glory and honor,
    putting everything in subjection under his feet.”

Now in putting everything in subjection to him, he left nothing outside his control. At present, we do not yet see everything in subjection to him. But we see him who for a little while was made lower than the angels, namely Jesus, crowned with glory and honor because of the suffering of death, so that by the grace of God he might taste death for everyone.
