I want to know wether the 'man' in Psalms 8:5 n Heb 2:6-8 is Jesus Christ or a mortal man like me?

 

Ann Richards's comment on 2013-03-17 10:30:11:

Since we are created in the image and likeness of God, as far as Psalms 8:5 states that we were created a little lower than God (NASV), therefore our position in God is a very significant one, and we must not take what God has done in us lightly. Since we will judge angels, this tells me we are in a higher state than these angels themselves, 1 Corinthians 6:3 says "we" shall judge angels, so think on that, and don't be afraid to say " I am created a little lower than God." Know who you are and be thankful that God holds you in such high esteem.
