The Final Word

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 Son is the radiance of God’s glory and the exact representation of his being, sustaining all things by his powerful word. After he had provided purification for sins, he sat down at the right hand of the Majesty in heaven.

Hebrews 1:1-3

Who is Jesus? The question has been asked many times by people. Even the Savior Himself asked the question “who do men say that I am”. (Matthew 16:13-18)

There are many possible responses to this question. However, the author of Hebrews addresses Jesus’ identity right from the start of the book. Let’s explore what God reveals about His Son and His work through His Holy Word.

Christ Manages the Universe

**Jesus Represents God to Humanity

Out Of Nothing

God is the Creator of all. He created all we see and all that is unseen. The Lord brought us into existence through His power and might. Let us think of three aspects of God’s creative work in the universe.

**God created the universe out of nothing.

By faith we understand that the universe was formed at God’s command, so that what is seen was not made out of what was visible.

Hebrews 11:3

**God created all there is by His Word. The Lord spoke the cosmos into existence.

And God said, “Let there be light,” and there was light.

Genesis 1:3

**The Almighty declared His creation very good.

God saw all that he had made, and it was very good. And there was evening, and there was morning—the sixth day.

Genesis 1:31

Praise the name of the Lord our God! He is worthy!
