Hebrews 1:1-6  NLT ... Long ago God spoke many times and in many ways to our ancestors through the prophets.  Now in these final days, He has spoken to us through His Son.  God promised everything to the Son as an inheritance, and through the Son, He created the universe.  The Son radiates God's own Glory and expresses the very character of God, and He sustains everything by the mighty power of His command.  When He had cleansed us from our sins, He sat down in the Place of Honor at the right hand of the Majestic God in Heaven.  This shows that the Son is far greater than the angels, just as the Name that God gave Him is greater than their names.  (There is NO GREATER NAME than the Name of JESUS.) For God never said to any angel what He said to Jesus: "You are My Son.  Today I have become Your Father."  God also said, "I will be His Father, and He will be My Son."  And when He had brought His Supreme (Firstborn) Son into the world, God said, "Let all of God's angels worship Him."

First and foremost of all, you have to be conscious that you are a spirit.  You are not the body that you live in, and you are not the soul that you live in.

Your spirit man must be in control of everything you do.  Unfortunately, we don't always let Him do this.

Jesus is God's First Born Son ... first born because when you become born again, you are in that number.  At this time, you became a son of God.  If Jesus had been the only begotten, God would not have had to say "first".  He knew that there were going to be more coming in, but Jesus is the FIRST to be raised from the dead.

Jesus' Name is the Name that is above every name.
