Hebrews – A Call to Commitment:
                               “Privilege Demands Action”
                                          Hebrews 10:19-25

•  “Therefore,” sums up all the doctrine he has been expounding upon; Doctrine leads to  action!
• When Jesus died the curtain separating the Holy place from the most holy place was torn from top to bottom (Mk 15:38)  Like the curtain his body was torn to open the way.
• This is our authors counterpart to John 14:6; “I am the way…

      We are called to three specific action steps:

1.         Live in a state of Worship (God)

•  How do we worship?  It’s all about lifestyle here!
•  Sincerely; Sincere Heart or lowly of heart: Isaiah 57:15
• The lowly or poor in spirit recognize their spiritual depravity: Mt. 5:3
• Our spirits and our bodies are saved; 1 Pet 3:21  

 

2.         Hold on to your Confession of Faith  (World)

•  It is about our witness to the world.
• Faith and confession are welded together in Rom 10:9-10
• Trust in the faithfulness of God:  2 Tim 2:13
• Our hope is based on God’s unfailing promises.

 

3.         Spur one another on toward Noble Living (Church)

•  Christianity is not a lone-ranger faith.
• “The Bible knows nothing of solitary religion.” (Wesley, the Methodist movement.
• How do we spur?
• We fellowship together.
• We are a body; thus, we need to come together.
• We Encourage not discourage.
• Why? The clock is ticking: Rom 8:18
• Godliness with contentment is great gain: 1 Tim 6:6-9
