Who Makes The Angels His Ministers?
And of the angels He says, “Who makes His angels winds, And His ministers a flame of fire.” Hebrews 1:7
In last week’s installment we looked at Hebrews 1:6 and the writer’s quote of Psalm 97:7 which established Christ Jesus as superior to the angels in heaven based upon His power over death and resulting ascension to the throne in glory. In His righteous judgment of offering Himself on our behalf, He has cast down His adversaries (the rebellious angels) with the guarantee that he will burn them up (Matt. 25:41), delivered those in Christ from the wicked one, and preserved the souls of the faithful. His church (ZION) rejoices in the gladness of His salvation and willingly worships Him along with the remaining faithful in the heavenly realm.
