How could we not appreciate one who died for all -- Hebrews 2:5-9: We must give loving obedience to Jesus Christ because God has put the world to come in subjection unto Him. The church can depend upon Jesus Christ as her loving head. The unbelievable love of the Son of God toward mankind is seen in the fact that He willing condescend to this earth and suffered terribly to provide our salvation.

Jesus Christ has the government over that church. The words of Psalms 8:4-6 are here applied powerfully to Him. "What is man, that thou art mindful of him? and the son of man, that thou visitest him? For thou hast made him a little lower than the angels, and hast crowned him with glory and honour. Thou madest him to have dominion over the works of thy hands; thou hast put all things under his feet."

God is mindful of Jesus and He is also always mindful of us. Therefore, let us never be forgetful of Him. Let us remember God daily as we approach Him by doing our duty. God accomplished in Jesus what he could accomplish in no other. As a result of His suffering and death, Jesus was crowned with glory and honour.

Salvation was not provided by any right which man had earned, but it was provided by the grace of God. By the favour of God, Jesus experience death for the sins of the world. Jesus bore the bitterness and unpleasantness of death (physical and spiritual) for every man, whether Jew or Gentile, bond or free. The atonement made by Jesus was unlimited in its nature and design. When we look upon the sinfulness of man, we too, can only exclaim, "What is man that thou art mindful of him?"
