And furthermore, it is not angels who will control the future world we are talking about. For in one place the Scriptures say,
“What are mere mortals that You should think about them, or a Son of Man that You should care for Him?
Yet You made them only a little lower than the angels and crowned them with glory and honor.
You have given them authority over all things.”
Not when it says “all things” it means nothing is left out. But we have not yet seen all the things put under their authority. What we do see is Jesus, who was given a position “a little lower than the angels”, and because He suffered death for us, He is now “crowned with glory and honor”. Yes, by God’s grace, Jesus tasted death for everyone. God, for whom and through whom everything was made, chose to bring many children up to glory. And it was only right that He should make Jesus, through His suffering, a perfect leader, fit to bring them into their salvation.
So now Jesus and the ones He makes holy have the same Father. That is why Jesus not ashamed to call them His brothers and sisters. (vv. 5-11-NLT)
