HebrewsSteve Gregg
In this lecture, Steve Gregg explores the second chapter of Hebrews, which focuses on Jesus as a superior revelation of God. Gregg emphasizes the importance of recognizing Jesus' authority as greater than that of Moses and the angels. He also discusses the role of signs, wonders, and miracles in confirming the truth of Jesus' teachings, but warns against becoming distracted by them. Ultimately, Gregg emphasizes the significance of Jesus taking on human nature in order to defeat death and overcome the exploitation of the devil.
