8   Thou hast put all things in subjection under his feet. For in that he put all in subjection under him, he left nothing that is not put under him. But now we see not yet all things put under him.     9   But we see Jesus, who was made a little lower than the angels for the suffering of death, crowned with glory and honour; that he by the grace of God should taste death for every man. ~ HEBREWS 2:8-9

“But we see Jesus!” I just can’t get away from this verse. I have always loved this book of Hebrews, especially from the standpoint of leaving the principles of doctrine and “works causing death”, as the prophet worded it, and of going on to perfection, our position in a Melchisedec ministry of being Kings and Priests to creation. What I am seeing now is that Paul has set the tone for this position change in chapter 1, having identified Jesus, not only as the One Who brought redemption, but as the fulfillment of that redemption, and the One by Whom we can enter into that same position by allowing His life to fill our entire being. This IS an eternal perspective, the reality that our election has been groaning for. The ONLY way to enter is to see Jesus in YOU!
