… his eternal person. He is the Lord. He is before all things. Second, all things are made through him. Colossians 1.16, Hebrews 1.2, John 1.3. All things were made through him, including us, and shall what was made say anything back to the one who made it? Romans 9. No, he is the maker of all things, and that makes him the master of all things. Over all things, he is the Lord. All things are made through him. He sustains all things. Colossians 1.17, Hebrews 1.3. Not only did he make all things, but he actively holds it all together. He upholds the universe by the word of his power. He created and he continues. If he were to withdraw his actively sustaining, life-giving, molecule-securing power for even one millisecond, then everything that exists would cease to be. Are you thinking about what you have to do tomorrow? And it's okay if you are. Are you thinking about tomorrow? Are you thinking about what's at work? Perhaps a doctor's appointment, a meeting? …
… Son glorifies Father and Father glorifies Son. just a little glimpse of this in the book of hebrews the very beginning of hebrews chapter one verse two hebrews speaks of god appointing his son the heir of all things familiar with that phrase god appoints his son heir of all things and then hebrews adds through whom also he made the world. This is a really interesting sequence. So before he makes the world through his son, he appoints his son as heir of all things. In other words, here's one way you might put it. In the mind of the father. I have this son I love, I delight in. I will make a world that he might have it. I'll make a world that he will be the hero of That he will have the glory for That's why God made the world That's one way to say it You can reverse the order You can talk about creation for the glory of the Father You can talk about the Father creating Dreaming up the world, its history Sustaining it all Putting Jesus at the center To be the hero of it all The Father loves and celebrates his Son So as Jesus moves closer and closer to the cross, he looks to this glory he will receive from his Father. Indeed, this is the glory that he and his Father share. So, number one, Jesus lives his earthly life for his Father's glory. Number two, as he moves close to his death and he's lifted up, the first lifting up, the first …
… Long ago, at many times and in many ways, God spoke to our fathers by the prophets. But 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. So there is continuity between the Mosaic covenant and the new covenant in that God's word is final. That our obedience is final.
… That's what I want you to get. At many times in various ways in the past. Verse 2. But in these last days he has spoken to us by his son, whom he appointed heir of all things, and through whom he also made the universe. Now, what that makes me think is God's been doing this a long time. He's consistent. Say that out loud. God is consistent. Put it in the chat. God is consistent. The worlds were framed by the word of God. So when Isaiah says, this is what the Lord says, God didn't just start speaking, you just started listening. he's just waiting for us to tune in when we start our worship service at church we're just joining with what heaven is doing around the clock because he's consistent he's consistently holy that's why the angels call him holy holy holy when you say it three times it underscores not only the significance of it but the consistency of it god doesn't take an off day from doing the right thing Jesus was without sin, and yet he was made to become sin so that we who had sinned could become the righteousness of God through him. That's what he means by his son who created the universe. …
… at many times in various ways. But in these last days, he has spoken to us by his son, whom he appointed heir of all things. And look at this, and through whom, through the son, also he made the universe. Jesus was the operational force who created the world. nail-pierced hands flung the stars into space. John said it this way, in the beginning was the Word. We know that's Jesus, the capital W-O-R-D. And the Word was with God, and the Word was God. He was with God in the beginning, and through him, through Jesus, all things were made. And without Jesus, nothing was made. Grace has a name, and his name. he made the world a few verses down in chapter one of Genesis. So God created mankind in his own image. Wow. Talk about grace. I'm going to make you, and I'm not just going to make you. I'm going to make you in my image, in the image of God. I'm going to make you. You're not going to make you in the image of God. …
In the past, God spoke to our ancestors through the prophets at many times and in various ways. But in these last days, he has spoken to us by his Son. whom he appointed heir of all things and through whom also he made the universe. The sun is the radiance of God's glory and the exact representation of his being, sustaining all things by his powerful word. And after he had provided purification for sins, he sat down at the right hand of the majesty in heaven. So he became as much superior to the angels as the name he has inherited is superior to theirs. For to which of the angels did God ever say, you are my son? Today I have become your father. Or again, I will be his father and he will be my son. And again, when God brings his firstborn into the world, he says, let all God's angels worship him. Do me a favor, share the sermon title with your neighbor. Look at someone and tell them, neighbor, oh neighbor, he's no angel. …
… the very first verse where we read these words, God, who at various times and in various ways spoke in time past to the fathers by the prophets, has in these last days spoken to us by His Son, whom He has appointed heir of all things, through whom also He made the world, who being the brightness of His glory and the express image of His person, and upholding all things by the word of His power. Now, the idea here with respect to Revelation, and particularly with respect to special revelation, is that we receive distinct information from God Himself. Now, that's an astonishing thing, an astonishing claim. And this is at the very root and heart of a Christian understanding of knowledge. In the field of philosophy, we have a subdivision that we call epistemology. And epistemology is the science of knowing. It analyzes the way in which human beings are able to acquire knowledge. And great debates rage over whether The primacy in learning is on the mind and on rational deduction, or is the primacy of knowledge in the senses, the five senses of seeing, hearing, taste, touch, smell, and so on, what we call the empirical approach to the external world. …
