Bible Passage (KJV): Hebrews 4:11-13 – (00:00)

QUESTIONS

Q1. What does “unto the eyes of God” mean? How should this change the way I live? – (15:09)

Q2. What does “with whom we have to do” mean? How should it affect my usage of the Word and my response to it? – (51:20)

Bible Passage (KJV): Hebrews 4:11-13

11 Let us labour therefore to enter into that rest, lest any man fall after the same example of unbelief.

12 For the word of God is quick, and powerful, and sharper than any twoedged sword, piercing even to the dividing asunder of soul and spirit, and of the joints and marrow, and is a discerner of the thoughts and intents of the heart.

13 Neither is there any creature that is not manifest in his sight: but all things are naked and opened unto the eyes of him with whom we have to do.
