The Joy in Responsibility

(An In-Depth Study of Hebrews)

Commentary

Faith that Draws Near

Hebrews 10:19-25 

Outline 

Life is all about relationships:

In one sense, it’s all about getting closer.

First, getting closer to God.

Second, getting closer to each other.

It is all achieved by FAITH!

CLOSENESS:

Let us draw near (vs 22)

Since we have a living way:

Opened by His Body

Paved by His Blood

With a True Heart

A Gift of the New Covenant

CONFIDENCE:

Let us hold fast (vs 23)

Since the Great High Priest is for us:

He is faithful

With a True Heart

In full assurance of Faith

CHARACTER:

Let us stir one another to love and good works (vs 24)

Since the Day draws near

Meet together

Encourage each other

Get excited about the future

LIFE APPLICATION:

How saving faith defeats sin in our lives:

Past – forgotten

Present – overcome

Future – No fear!

Faith = Assurance
