Enduring Hostility

We live in a world where people can lose jobs, income, family and friends, simply because they are Christians following the Lord Jesus Christ. However, this isn't new. The Christians the letter of Hebrews was written were also losing homes, lands, jobs, family, and were being shunned by their community. It is in the midst of this that we must endure and look to our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ and remember the Father's discipline which is training us for holiness.

Hebrews

In the book of Hebrews we are reminded again and again of the supremacy of Christ. It is a call to see Christ as the greatest treasure and to cling to him in faith and with all your might. May this book stir our hearts to love Christ more and more.
