Four passages and a short devotional a day to take you through the whole Bible in one year — right alongside your Spirit Church family.
Real questions from Spirit readers on this passage, answered by our pastors.
Hebrews issues the great invitation today: since we have confidence to enter the Most Holy Place by the blood of Jesus, let us draw near with a sincere heart and full assurance.
Then three let-us verbs in a row: draw near, hold unswervingly, consider how to spur one another on. Assured people move toward God, toward hope, and toward each other. Check your three directions today.
Ezekiel 23 and Hebrews 10 are the same warning at two volumes: drifting from covenant never ends neutral. The sisters courted protectors and manufactured executioners; the shrinking-back Hebrews were trading confidence for a slow fade. Apostasy rarely announces itself. It just stops showing up.
Which is why the prescription is so ordinary: keep meeting, keep spurring, keep holding, draw near. Assurance is sustained in community the way coals stay hot in a pile. You are not of those who shrink back. Prove it this week by moving toward, in all three directions.
