THIRSTING SOULS BIBLE STUDY: The Book of Hebrews, Chapter 2, Study #4
The greatness of the Lord Jesus continues in thought from Chapter One. God made man a promise that he would be set over all the works of God – yet to take place.

DAILY DROP OF WATER
(1Co 4:7) “For who maketh thee to differ from another? and what hast thou that thou didst not receive? now if thou didst receive it, why dost thou glory, as if thou hadst not received it?” Any spiritual good or work comes from and is empowered by God the Holy Spirit. Pride in such will hinder that work. Instead, we should be humbled our Holy God would use such a defiled vessel as self.
DAILY DROP OF WATER
(1Co 2:9) “But as it is written, Eye hath not seen, nor ear heard, neither have entered into the heart of man, the things which God hath prepared for them that love him. (10) But God hath revealed them unto us by his Spirit: for the Spirit searcheth all things, yea, the deep things of God.” Verse 9 is most often quoted without verse 10. This is done so to keep the mystery of it. But they HAVE been revealed to the saved in the Word of God through the Holy Spirit.
