Christ is Greater

Greater Than Angels:

Angels are servants whereas he is the Son.

Greater Than Moses:

Moses was a faithful servant, he is a faithful Son and redeemer.

Greater Than High Priest:

High Priest only have the Aaronic priesthood while Christ has the higher one, the Melchizedek


In Hebrews 1, Paul gives us three great truths about Jesus Christ:

Under the direction of God the Father, he created the world. (verse 2)

Jesus Christ paid the price for our sins. (verse 3)

Jesus Christ is literally the Son of God. (verse 6)


Reasons why Christ came to earth to gain a mortal experience

Hebrews 2:7-18

Chirst had to face temptations because to know any goodness one has to be presented to the bitter. He was the one who took our sins to make salvation an option unto us

Hebrews 4:13-16

Christ needs to receive personal experience to understand temporal trails. This way he help us through ours and give us comfort.

Alma 7:11-15

Christ had to take on all of our sicknesses, infirmities, temptations, and pain This way he can fully understand each of us. To make death crumble unto us and him and bring about life.

Doctrine & Covenants 122:8

Christ had to descend below all things in order to truly gain victory over sin and death.
