11. Danger: Neglecting God’s Word1
Text: Heb. 2:2-4.
The Words of the Angels:
Angels were seen as messengers which God sent to bring His Word unto men (Ps. 68:17; Deut. 33:2).
Every transgression and disobedience against the word of angels will be punished.
Sin is any want of conformity unto, or the transgression of the Law of God.

12. Danger: Neglecting God’s Word1
The Word of Christ: Far superior to that of the angels.
It was proclaimed by the Son of God Himself.
It was confirmed by eye-witnesses.
It was authenticated by God Himself.
Greater judgment to those who neglect the Word of Christ.
If men neglect the truth of God’s Word, they will be drifting into damnation.
