Hebrews:10:24-39
Seeker Overlay ON
*
And let us consider one another to provoke unto love and to good works :
*
Not forsaking the assembling of ourselves together ,
as the manner of some is ;
but exhorting one another :
and so much the more ,
as ye see the day approaching .
*
For if we sin wilfully after that we have received the knowledge of the truth ,
there remaineth no more sacrifice for sins ,
*
But a certain fearful looking for of judgment and fiery indignation ,
which shall devour the adversaries .
*
He that despised Moses '
law died without mercy under two or three witnesses :
*
Of how much sorer punishment ,
suppose ye ,
shall he be thought worthy ,
who hath trodden under foot the Son of God ,
and hath counted the blood of the covenant ,
wherewith he was sanctified ,
an unholy thing ,
and hath done despite unto the Spirit of grace ?
*
For we know him that hath said ,
Vengeance belongeth unto me ,
I will recompense ,
saith the Lord .
And again ,
The Lord shall judge his people .
*
It is a fearful thing to fall into the hands of the living God .
*
But call to remembrance the former days ,
in which ,
after ye were illuminated ,
ye endured a great fight of afflictions ;
*
Partly ,
whilst ye were made a gazingstock both by reproaches and afflictions ;
and partly ,
whilst ye became companions of them that were so used .
*
For ye had compassion of me in my bonds ,
and took joyfully the spoiling of your goods ,
knowing in yourselves that ye have in heaven a better and an enduring substance .
*
Cast not away therefore your confidence ,
which hath great recompence of reward .
*
For ye have need of patience ,
that ,
after ye have done the will of God ,
ye might receive the promise .
*
For yet a little while ,
and he that shall come will come ,
and will not tarry .
*
Now the just shall live by faith :
but if any man draw back ,
my soul shall have no pleasure in him .
*
But we are not of them who draw back unto perdition ;
but of them that believe to the saving of the soul .
