The Glory of the Two Adams

As we have seen in our Hebrews study, this book is about how Jesus is "better" and that he's both the messenger and the message! To put it another way, he came to both announce the Gospel and accomplish the Gospel by his obedience.

Glory is the focus of today's sermon, and the fact that there have been two Adams—one lost the glory he was given, but the "better" won the glory back by earning it!

We see that, although the first Adam was not able to accomplish the task set before him, he was gifted with many glorious things. But the second Adam, the Lord Jesus Christ, had a glory in the suffering he had for us and crowning in victory.
