THE GREATER SENSE IN WHICH CHRIST JESUS IS ‘THE ONLY BEGOTTEN SON’ OF GOD THE FATHER

“Having become so much better than the angels, as He has BY INHERITANCE obtained a more excellent name than they [the angels]. FOR to which of the angels did He ever say, You are My Son, today I have begotten You?” Heb. 1:4,5. None of course!

“‘This day I have begotten Thee.’ According to Acts 13: 32,33 previously quoted, this was by the RESURRECTION FROM THE DEAD.”

MEANING OF ‘SAT DOWN AT THE RIGHT HAND OF THE MAJESTY ON HIGH’

FROM YOUR PASTOR’S DESK:

MEANING of ‘SAT DOWN AT THE RIGHT HAND OF THE MAJESTY ON HIGH’

When Christ, the anti-typical “Lamb of God” expired on the cross on 31 A.D, a victor over all the temptations and sins that all mankind is subject to, He rose on the “third day” a victor over death and the grave and ascended to the heavenly sanctuary to assume His office and work as High Priest (embracing the functions as Advocate, Mediator and Intercessor) for penitent and repentant sinners. This is the Priesthood of Christ as typified by the Aaronic and Levitical priesthood and their function and work throughout the Old Testament Mosaic era up to the first coming of Christ as the prophesied Messiah.

When Christ has finished His work on earth the Bible tells us that He ascended to heaven and “sat down on the right hand of the Majesty on high” [God the Father].
