SCRIPTURE FOR TODAY HEBREWS 10:19-31

Continue to Trust God

¹⁹ So, brothers and sisters, we are completely free to enter the Most Holy Place without fear because of the blood of Jesus' death.²⁰ We can enter through a new and living way that Jesus opened for us. It leads through the curtain—Christ's body.²¹ And since we have a great priest over God's house,²² let us come near to God with a sincere heart and a sure faith, because we have been made free from a guilty conscience, and our bodies have been washed with pure water.²³ Let us hold firmly to the hope that we have confessed, because we can trust God to do what he promised.

²⁴ Let us think about each other and help each other to show love and do good deeds.²⁵ You should not stay away from the church meetings, as some are doing, but you should meet together and encourage each other. Do this even more as you see the day coming.

²⁶ If we decide to go on sinning after we have learned the truth, there is no longer any sacrifice for sins.²⁷ There is nothing but fear in waiting for the judgment and the terrible fire that will destroy all those who live against God.²⁸ Anyone who refused to obey the law of Moses was found guilty from the proof given by two or three witnesses. He was put to death without mercy.²⁹ So what do you think should be done to those who do not respect the Son of God, who look at the blood of the agreement that made them holy as no different from others' blood, who insult the Spirit of God's grace? Surely they should have a much worse punishment.³⁰ We know that God said, "I will punish those who do wrong; I will repay them." And he also said, "The Lord will judge his people."³¹ It is a terrible thing to fall into the hands of the living God.

GREATLY BLESSED, HIGHLY FAVORED, IMPERFECT BUT FORGIVEN CHILD OF GOD!!!
