Christ - Worthy of More Glory than Moses

Christ Jesus our Lord has been counted worthy of greater glory than Moses our text says. The Jews, to whom this treatise was written, were in great danger of going back to Judaism after having received the gospel and having made confession of their faith in Christ. One of the main reasons that they had fallen into this danger was their great veneration of Moses. They had placed him on the same level as the Lord Jesus, or perhaps had placed him on an even higher level. And so the task of the Apostle Paul was to show them that Christ was considerably greater than Moses; that He has been counted worthy of more glory than Moses for the following reasons. First, He who built the house has more honor than the house. Second, Moses was faithful as a servant, but Christ was faithful as a Son. And third – Moses could give instruction but he could not give grace to be saved or to persevere to the end of your life, but Christ most certainly can. We will use these truths to make application to our own spiritual life in Christ as we approach the Lord's Table.
