Why God Became Man – Hebrews 2:14-17 | God With Us (Advent 2025 – Part 2)
Hebrews 2:14–17 shows that Christmas matters because God became truly human in Jesus—not in sin, but in our flesh—to accomplish what no one else could. By taking on our nature, Christ destroyed the devil’s power, silenced his accusations, and freed us from the fear and slavery of death. As the perfect High Priest, He represents us before God, bears our sin in propitiation, and gives us His righteousness. Jesus became like us so He could save us, stand for us, and bring us into the life and hope only He can give.
