Hebrews 12:1-29
Let us run with perseverance the race marked out for us.
Let us fix our eyes on Jesus, the author and perfect of our faith.
Endure hardship as discipline; God is treating you as sons.
Strengthen your feeble arms and weak knees. Make level paths for your feet, so that the lame may not be disables, but rather healed.
Since we are receiving a kingdom that cannot be shaken, let us be thankful and so worship God acceptable with reverence and awe, for our "God is a consuming fire."
Consider Christ - the ultimate example of faith: its pioneer and perfecter. He id not give up when he faced the cross. Fix your eyes on him.
Why?
This discipline is like an athlete's training. The pain is short-term: the reward, lasting. So brace the trembling limbs, and keep going!
We have come to God by a better way than the terrors of Sinai, the writer says, and he sets out the glories of heaven for us to see.
Warning: There is no escape for those who refuse him : they will find him 'a consuming fire.'
Make level paths for your feet, which not only good to me but also may help other lamb can walk on it, follow us on the right way. Let us be an example of righteousness.
Everyone has been marked out by the Lord, so let us run with perseverance and strengthen our weak knees.
How?
Fix our eyes on God, Let us run with perseverance the race marked out for us. Since the reward is great last.
