How touched we should be by the suffering of the Saviour -- Hebrews 2:10-15: The Hebrew writer refers to Jesus with many wonderful terms. Among then, he calls Him "the captain of our salvation." (Hebrews 2:10) His purpose is and our purpose also is to bring many to heaven so they can be treated as sons. God as God could not die for our sins -- God cannot die. So God took our nature that he might die for us. He became one with us that we might become one with Him.

Observe these truths: (1) Jesus Christ has a church. (2) Christians are one of another and brethren to Christ. (3) Jesus declared the Father's name to them in the church. and, (4) Jesus sang praise to the Father in the church. If He would praise the Father with song in the church so should we.

Jesus undertook the work of destroying him that had the power of death. This was accomplished by His own dying. When it was said that Satan had the power of death I understand this to mean that the Devil was the cause of death being introduced into the world, and he was the means of its long and depressing reign.

Jesus Christ, by dying, has freed all His children from the tormenting fear of death. Christ took away the reason to fear death, namely, the curse or condemnation of the Law of God. Sin is now curable by the precious blood of Jesus.
