“God…hath in these last days spoken unto us by His Son, whom He hath appointed heir of all things, by whom also He made the worlds” (Hebrews 1:1-2).
God has spoken to this world by His Son, the Lord Jesus, by sending Him into this world as a man. He had spoken in the Old Testament by prophets, but now He has sent His Son. God has in His purposes, first and foremost, the honor and glory of His Son. When we spoke about the Trinity a few days ago, we pointed out that the Lord Jesus, God’s Son, is always the One who carries out the purposes of God. For this reason, He was the One who created this world, as we see in our verses today.
But what is more wonderful than that is that God has appointed Him to be heir of all things (the One who inherits everything) and we notice that this is mentioned first. The Lord Jesus was appointed heir of all things back in a past eternity, before He made the worlds. And when He takes this place, we will be associated with Him. We have a wonderful Savior and a wonderful future.
