Hebrews 2:10-13
10 For it was fitting for Him, for whom are all things and by whom are all things, in bringing many sons to glory, to make the captain of their salvation perfect through sufferings. 11 For both He who sanctifies and those who are being sanctified are all of one, for which reason He is not ashamed to call them brethren, 12 saying:
“I will declare Your name to My brethren;
In the midst of the assembly I will sing praise to You.” 13 And again:
“I will put My trust in Him.” And again:
“Here am I and the children whom God has given Me.”
“I will declare Your name to My brethren;
In the midst of the assembly I will sing praise to You.” 13 And again:
“I will put My trust in Him.” And again:
“Here am I and the children whom God has given Me.”
Jesus pioneered the way for our salvation through suffering to refine and complete His work to pay for our sin. Even though He made everything and everyone, even though He made all for Himself, yet He did these things to make us holy by imputing His righteousness to our account. He did not hand over some righteousness or make us righteous, but counts His perfect righteousness on our accounts. He did this by suffering so we would not have to as we ought, and now further works in us day by day to make us more holy as into His image. And He does that for us corporately as a chosen people as well as individuality as His adopted children. Therefore we declare His name to each other and praise the one we have trusted and do trust in. We are His children and He declares His glory and name to us as it is fitting, because He brings us to His glory.
