PASSAGE: Warning to Pay Attention, Jesus Made Like His Brothers
MEMORY VERSE: "For you created my inmost being, you knit me together in my mother's womb. I praise you for I am fearfully and wonderfully made; Your works are wonderful, I know that full well" Psalm 139:13-14
NOTES: (v.1) "We must pay more careful attention, therefore, to what we have heard, so that we do not drift away....This salvation, which was first announced by the Lord, was confirmed to us by those who heard him. God also testified to it by signs, wonders and various miracles, and the gifts of the Holy Spirit distributed according to his will."
(v.8) "In putting everything under him, God left nothing that is not subject to him....But we see Jesus, who was made a little lower than the angles, now crowned with glory and honor because he suffered death, so that by the grace of God he might taste death for everyone."
(v.14) "Since the children have flesh and blood, he too shared in their humanity so that by his death he might destroy him who holds the power of death--that is the devil--and free those who all their lives were held in slavery by their fear of death."
(v.16) "For surely it is not angels he helps, but Abraham's descendants. For this reason he had to be made like his brothers in every way, in order that he might become a merciful and faithful high priest in service to God, and that he might make atonement for the sins of the people. Because he himself suffered when he was tempted, he is able to help those who are being tempted."
ACT OF LOVE: Today, my friend wanted me to do her a small favor over facebook. She entered a contest and needed help, so I asked a few of my friends to help her as well!
