Last Sunday, we unpacked Hebrews 6:4-8 which included a warning that God provides out of His deep love for us. This week Pastor Peter walks us through Hebrews 6:9-12 which shows us the comfort that we can find in that warning. It is difficult to stay diligent in a hostile culture. But God sees us in our struggles and we can endure and persevere because of the promise of eternity with Christ through faith.
9 Even though we are speaking this way, dearly loved friends, in your case we are confident of things that are better and that pertain to salvation. 10 For God is not unjust; he will not forget your work and the love[a] you demonstrated for his name by serving the saints—and by continuing to serve them. 11 Now we desire each of you to demonstrate the same diligence for the full assurance of your hope until the end, 12 so that you won’t become lazy but will be imitators of those who inherit the promises through faith and perseverance.
