The Supremacy of God’s Son
1 Long ago, at many times and in many ways, God spoke to our fathers by the prophets, 2 but in these last days he has spoken to us by his Son, awhom he appointed the heir of all things, bthrough whom also he created the world. 3 cHe is the radiance of the glory of God and dthe exact imprint of his nature, and ehe upholds the universe by the word of his power. After fmaking purification for sins, ghe sat down at the right hand of the Majesty on high, 4 having become as much superior to angels as the hname he has inherited is more excellent than theirs.
The Full Assurance of Faith
19 Therefore, brothers,1 since we have dconfidence to eenter the holy places by the blood of Jesus, 20 by the new and living fway that he opened for us through the gcurtain, that is, through his flesh, 21 and since we have a great priest over the hhouse of God, 22 let us idraw near with a true heart in jfull assurance of faith, with our hearts ksprinkled clean from an evil lconscience and our bodies mwashed with pure water. 23 Let us nhold fast the oconfession of our phope without wavering, for he who promised is qfaithful. 24 And let us consider how to stir up one another to love and good works, 25 not neglecting to meet together, as is the habit of some, but rencouraging one another, and all the more as you see the sDay drawing near.
