So Much Better ๐Ÿงฎ๐Ÿ“ฑ

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

I love the way my Bible paints a picture of understanding for the reader.  We are told that Jesus “Being made so much better than the angels” 

So much better than the angels? I got interested in that so much better! We hear much about angels today, but here we read that Jesus is so much better. If Jesus is so much better, then maybe His name would be mentioned more than angels. I looked to see, you tell me. The name Angels is mentioned 81 times in the New Testament. Then I looked at the name Jesus alone, what I mean by that is I didn’t look for the name Jesus Christ nor Lord Jesus just the name Jesus singular. Here’s what I found: The Name Jesus is mentioned 983 times; I would say that is much more. Why is that? Simple 

Acts 4:12 (KJV) Neither is there salvation in any other: for there is none other name under heaven given among men, whereby we must be saved. 

There it is again “salvation” that’s the first matter that must be settled, for if there is no “salvation” then there is no Heaven and if there is no Heaven then there’s no God and if no God we have nothing but this life only. The Bible is a phony that tells of a person that lived a good life but His dying on a cross was not for our sins but only a historial written exposure of the awfulness of mankind. A history lesson on how heartless mankind can be. Over the last 50 years the evil heart of mankind has slowly exposed itself. Man’s sinful acts have enlarged themselves. The corruptness of everyday talk by both men and women is awful. Just listening as people talk they use 4 letter words as if it is an honor and an art to see how many 4 letter words one could get into a sentence. If somehow you missed hearing those 4 letter words in the conversations of the day. Then you heard them on your radio, if you somehow missed hearing them there you heard them on your TV. Listening to or watching the news is like watching a western movie. There is killing in every state and every town on a daily basis. Mankind is on the track for collapse of destruction destroying their own selves. Jails and prisons are full, drug use is at an all time usage rate and alcohol is destroying life after life. The answer is and has always been JESUS!

He is so much better. As I round the bend and the end of this life is not far away. There’s not much of this life’s treasure I’m interested in. I have come to the conclusion that if I can’t wear it or eat it I don’t need it. I find myself thinking about the other side and what it will be like, not if I have Salvation that’s settled. But what it will be like when I depart because being with Jesus is so much better.
