Brothers and Sisters 😊
📖 In Hebrews chapter 6 and 7 today we see a strong warning against drifting & defiance, as well as uplifting encouragements that we were made for better things because of God’s irresistible grace and our unification with Christ by faith…
“Though we warn you that some have fallen away, yet in your case beloved, we feel sure of better things for you, things that belong to salvation…For you have Jesus as a sure and steadfast anchor of the soul, a hope that enters into the inner place behind the curtain, where He has gone as a forerunner on your behalf” (Heb 6:9,19)
Q. Are you glad that your salvation and favor from God does not depend on the consistency or intensity of your own righteousness and good works, but on the guarantee of a better Hope, the once-for-all sacrifice of Christ?
Q. In light of Jesus finished work for you, how should you respond to God’s call for sacrificial service and love towards others?
🙏 Heavenly Father thank you so much for your unchangeable character of good purposes for your people – We praise you Lord that you cannot lie, and will not change your mind about your very great and precious promises for us in Christ…
✝️ “This makes Jesus the guarantor of a better covenant…Consequently, He is able to save to the uttermost those who draw near to God through Him, since He everlives to make intercession for them. For we have a great High Priest who is holy, innocent, unstained, separated from sin, and exalted above the heavens…He offered up Himself once for all, the Son of God who has been made perfect forever.”
Hebrews 7:22,25,28
