INTRO: We are in Hebrews chapter 2. Since it has been a while let me go back a little. As I outline these two chapters in 1:1-4 we had the claim of Christ's superiority over angels. In 1:5-14 we had the evidence of this superiority. Then in 2:1-4 we have the exhortation and warning drawn from this superiority. We come back now to our study in Hebrews. In Hebrews 13:22 we learn that the writer views this book or letter as an exhortation. There are five major exhortations in the form of warnings. Each one comes after a section of doctrine or teaching. In chapter 2 we have the first exhortation and warning in the book. It says this: 1 Therefore we must give the more earnest heed to the things we have heard, lest we drift away.
2 For if the word spoken through angels proved steadfast, and every transgression and disobedience received a just reward,
3 how shall we escape if we neglect so great a salvation, The warning is that the believer who neglects his salvation which is based on the words of the Lord Jesus Christ is less likely to escape than those who transgressed the words spoken by angels.
