Hebrews 2:10-11 In bringing many sons and daughters to glory, it was fitting that God, for whom and through whom everything exists, should make the pioneer of their salvation perfect through what he suffered. 11Both the one who makes people holy and those who are made holy are of the same family. So Jesus isContinue reading “Something Added – Hebrews 2:10-11”

Angels? – Hebrews 1:14
Hebrews 1:14 Are not all angels ministering spirits sent to serve those who will inherit salvation? Humans are unique. Although the LORD used the spun molecules of DNA in us and in much of the life here on Earth, we have something that is greater than DNA. We were created in God’s image. We areContinue reading “Angels? – Hebrews 1:14”
Unseen
Hebrews 11:3 By faith we understand the the universe was formed at God’s command, so that what is seen was not made out of what was visible. Much of life involves acting on things that we don’t see with our eyes. We trust the skill and training of the engineers of the vehicles we drive.Continue reading “Unseen”
Unswervingly
Hebrews 10:23 Let us hold unswervingly to the hope we profess, for he who promised is faithful. I awoke this morning around 5AM, not unusually early for me, a man of my age with typical man of my age issues. I am used to getting up in the night and using the bathroom. But thisContinue reading “Unswervingly”
Obsolete and Outdated
Hebrews 8:13 By calling this covenant “new,” he has made the first one obsolete; and what is obsolete and outdated will soon disappear. For some people the Old Testament is an embarrassment, all that killing and bloodshed. Even in the first family, one brother killed the other brother! Talk about dysfunction! They needed some seriousContinue reading “Obsolete and Outdated”
Take Me Back
Hebrews 6:19 We have this hope as an anchor for the soul, firm and secure. The past has so much to teach us, if we are willing to be schooled by it. But history can be a complicated course of study. There are very few ‘simple’ lessons that can be gleaned. Humanity, and the historyContinue reading “Take Me Back”
Encouragement
Hebrews 3:13 But encourage one another daily, as long as it is called “Today,” so that none of you may be hardened by sin’s deceitfulness. Looking around the world and listening to the story being spun by social media and the news outlets, it could be very easy to get discouraged. They really don’t tellContinue reading “Encouragement”
Chain of Custody
Hebrews 2:3-4 how shall we escape if we ignore so great a salvation? This salvation, which was first announced by the Lord, was confirmed to us by those who heard him. 4 God also testified to it by signs, wonders and various miracles, and by gifts of the Holy Spirit distributed according to his will.Continue reading “Chain of Custody”
The Thread – Jesus is THE Answer
Despite human sinfulness, people trusted in the LORD, and the LORD remained faithful to those who trusted Him. Our faith is an objective faith. We put our faith in Jesus: There are many things we could trust in life. Jesus is the only One worthy of complete trust. The LORD is a communicating God: WeContinue reading “The Thread – Jesus is THE Answer”
Around to Stay
Hebrews 1:8-12 There are several things about Jesus that demonstrate that He is God. One of those things is that He is eternal. The writer of the book of Hebrews in the New Testament begins his presentation of Jesus as superior to all previous revelations from God by comparing Jesus to angels. This is aContinue reading “Around to Stay”
