Hebrews 5 Tonight

Greetings Everyone,  I pray you have had a good start to your week, and are joining us tonight for spiritual refueling and fellowship. We'll meet at the Bell's at 6:30 pm, and start our discussion of Hebrews 5 led by Dr. Stan. We'll meet inside, I promise :)

Bring any thoughts or revelations you've had about Hebrews 4, and entering (living) in the rest of God, a "Sabbath rest." Or Isaiah 30:15 which we visited in detail last week, and seems to be the same message with perhaps some added revelation. I hope you took the chance to read the context of Isa 30:15 since we never did in front of the fire on a very wind blown patio last week. :)

Don't grow weary, and keep your confidence in your Great High Priest in these days. That seems to be the main message of Hebrews. He Who calls us and purchased us with His blood has led us in this study, the study of hell, and the persecuted church which will come after or interspersed with our Hebrews study. He's leading. Are you willing to follow? And stay engaged?

Read, prepare, come, share. Expect an encounter with your God in this chapter of our lives in home group together, and in your life personally. The days are perilous. But our God is the same... forever. Amen.

“For thus the Lord God, the Holy One of Israel, has said, “In repentance and rest you will be saved, In quietness and trust is your strength.” But you were not willing,” (Isaiah 30:15)

“Therefore, since it remains for some to enter it, and those who formerly had good news preached to them failed to enter because of disobedience,” (Hebrews 4:6)

“So there remains a Sabbath rest for the people of God. For the one who has entered His rest has himself also rested from his works, as God did from His. Therefore let us be diligent to enter that rest, so that no one will fall, through following the same example of disobedience.”(Hebrews 4:9–11)

“For behold, darkness will cover the earth And deep darkness the peoples; But the Lord will rise upon you And His glory will appear upon you.” (Isaiah 60:2)
