11.Why is God mindful of man, and why does God "visit" him?

Back to Study the Book of Hebrews


Back to Chapter Two.....


People who have received the Lord Jesus Christ are God’s image, God’s sons, the brothers of Christ, God’s heirs, the creatures redeemed through the blood of the Lamb, the Wife of the Lamb, the Temple of God, the judges of the heavens and the earth, the army of the Lord, the heirs of all things, those who will sit on the throne of Christ.

God has made man a little lower than the angels by placing him in an animal body, a body subject to death. However, in the resurrection, people will be immortal like the angels and will be the sons of God in a greater sense than is true now.

Neither can they die any more: for they are equal unto the angels; and are the children of God, being the children of the resurrection (Luke 20:36).

But even today, man is infinitely superior to the angels in that he has been created in God’s image and is capable of being the habitation of God. Neither of these attributes is possessed by angels.
