Drift
1We must pay more careful attention, therefore, to what we have heard, so that we do not drift away. 2For if the message spoken by angels was binding, and every violation and disobedience received its just punishment, 3how shall we escape if we ignore such a great salvation? This salvation, which was first announced by the LORD, was confirmed to us by those who heard Him. 4God also testified to it by signs, wonders and various miracles, and gifts of the Holy Spirit distributed according to His will.-
5It is not to angels that He has subjected the world to come, about which we are speaking. 6But there is a place where someone has testified:
"What is man that You are mindful of him, the Son of man that You care for him? 7You made him a littlea]'>[a] lower than the angels; You crowned him with glory and honor 8 and put everything under his feet." b]'>[b]
In putting everything under Him, God left nothing that is not subject to Him. Yet at present we do not see everything subject to Him. 9But we see Jesus, Who was made a little lower than the angels, now crowned with glory and honor because He suffered death, so that by the grace of God He might taste death for everyone.
-Hebrews 2:1-9
