For what can be known about God is plain to them, because God has shown it to them. For his invisible attributes, namely, his eternal power and divine nature, have been clearly perceived, ever since the creation of the world, in the things that have been made. So they are without excuse. Romans 1:19-20

So when life falls apart, know that it’s okay to pray honesty. To pour out your sorrow and frustration before God. And it’s good to pray for help. To ask God to do for you what he alone can do. And it’s essential to pray with hope, looking to God and his loyal, steadfast love which meets us fully in the cross and resurrection of Christ

The promise of hope for God’s people involves the judgment of the wickedness and sin that has created the chaos and injustice of this world

Understanding who we are as frail humans made in God’s image moves us to celebrate how great and majestic God is over all the earth

New covenant worship is not defined primarily by ritual, but by a whole life focused on God’s will to the glory of Christ

In the book of Hebrews, there is a recurring theme, that Jesus is better, but God has not changed

This passage is not so much about running with endurance, but rather about training so that you can run with endurance

If we have Jesus, there is nothing this world can offer, and nothing this world can take away, that can compare to the inheritance we look forward to in Christ

Because Jesus is better in every way, we have confidence to draw near to God, hold fast to the gospel, and stir one another up to love and good works, that we might persevere in faith together

The single sacrifice of Christ in history was enough to perfect all God’s people for all time for an abiding relationship with God
