Jesus is My Superhero: He’s Greater Than The Angels

In Hebrews we learn that Jesus is superior to anything we can imagine.

  1. He is the greatest Superhero.

Why is it important that we understand that Jesus is supe- rior to everything?

  1. If we don’t realize how much better Jesus is some- thing will always take His place.

Warning in Hebrews 2:1, 3. Hebrews 1:4

“He became as much superior to the angels as the name He has inherited is superior to theirs.”

Angels were considered one of the most powerful and wondrous of all of God’s creation.

  1. Old Testament says:
    • They are continually in God’s presence
    • They are powerful enough to destroy the enemies of God
    • They are able to create an atmosphere of fear.

Personal notes: How people understand angels today

The truth about angels – Hebrews 1:14 About angels:

  1. Angels are powerful beings (vs. 7).
  2. They are ministering spirits

Angels are not to BE worshipped, they are beings WHO worship.
Jesus is not JUST superior to the angels – He is God.

  1. Hebrews 1:8
  2. Hebrews 1:10-12

His message: “You can do without angels – but you can’t do without Jesus.”

HE is our TRUE superhero.
