Better

-




While reading Hebrews I noticed a pattern:

Better position/creation

Heb 1:4 Being made so much better than the angels, as he hath by inheritance obtained a more excellent name than they.

Better Hope

Hebrews 7:19 KJV
For the law made nothing perfect, but the bringing in of a better hope did ; by the which we draw nigh unto God.

Better Testement

Hebrews 7:22 KJV
By so much was Jesus made a surety of a better testament.

More excellent ministry/ better covenant
Hebrews 8:6 KJV
But now hath he obtained a more excellent ministry, by how much also he is the mediator of a better covenant, which was established upon better promises.

Better sacrifice
Hebrews 9:23 KJV
It was therefore necessary that the patterns of things in the heavens should be purified with these; but the heavenly things themselves with better sacrifices than these.

But God commendeth his love toward us, in that, while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us. Romans 5:8 Which is the better sacrifice given.

Better enduring substance
Hebrews 10:34 KJV
For ye had compassion of me in my bonds, and took joyfully the spoiling of your goods, knowing in yourselves that ye have in heaven a better and an enduring substance.

Better  country
Hebrews 11:16 KJV
But now they desire a better country, that is, an heavenly: wherefore God is not ashamed to be called their God: for he hath prepared for them a city.

Better resurrection 
Hebrews 11:35 KJV
Women received their dead raised to life again: and others were tortured, not accepting deliverance; that they might obtain a better resurrection:

Heb 11:40 God having provided some better thing for us, that they without us should not be made perfect.

 It’s the first day of 2025, where intentions of bettering ones self and setting resolutions are in high spirit. Why not include starting off the year with the most import decision you will ever make, that will last the rest of your life! I encourage you in your endeavors of reaching a financial mark, loosing weight, and gaining knowledge (or any other goal you’ve set) as all are good things to aim for; even I have a few. Please remember, though they make life more pleasurable, all are only temporary, as death is inevitable for everyone. However, the one thing that will last forever is your soul. Have you thought about what will happen to it after your time on earth has ended? If not, this is the time to know for sure. “ Wherefore, as by one man sin entered the world”   (Romans 5:12)  That one man was the first person created in the world. This happened when Adam ate of the tree of knowledge of good and evil.  (Genesis 2:17)  Why does this matter? Romans continu...

1 Corinthians 2:12 KJV Now we have received, not the spirit of the world, but the spirit which is of God; that we might know the things that are freely given to us of God. What are the things that are freely given to us?  JUSTIFICATION Romans 3:24-26 KJV Being justified freely by his grace through the redemption that is in Christ Jesus: [25] Whom God hath set forth to be a propitiation through faith in his blood, to declare his righteousness for the remission of sins that are past, through the forbearance of God; [26] To declare, I say, at this time his righteousness: that he might be just, and the justifier of him which believeth in Jesus. Romans 5:1 KJV Therefore being justified by faith, we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ: RIGHTEOUSNESS Romans 5:18-19 KJV Therefore as by the offence of one judgment came upon all men to condemnation; even so by the righteousness of one the free gift came upon all men unto justification of life. [19] For as by one man's disobedie...
