Hebrews (Page 3)
God is as Good as His Word
Christians are called to trust the promises that God has given to us. Our circumstances may not make sense, but the Lord will keep His Word. This text from Hebrews shows us the example of Abraham, who learned, in great difficulty, to do that very thing.
A Warning to the Sluggish, Part 2
The people of Israel, in the wilderness, serve as an example to the people of God today that we must persevere to the end. It is possible to see the amazing power of God, sit under the Word, and yet not believe. Israel experienced all this and more, and fell in the desert.

Our High Priest, Fully Man, Able to Deal Gently with Us
Hebrews 5:1-10
Christ, Our Rest
By believing the Good News we have heard, we are called to enter into the rest that Christ gives to us- a rest that fulfills what both the Sabbath Day and the Promised Land pointed to in the Old Testament.

Champion for Men & of Men
