Hebrews 10:23-25
Excerpted from: Prayer and FervencyHope, faith, and love increase in an atmosphere of encouragement, of thoughtfulness, and where there is enough trust of each other that we are willing to open ourselves up somewhat. I want you to notice again here in Hebrews 10 in verses 23 through 25. Paul says,
This "stir up love" means "to arouse"—"to arouse to love." We have an obligation to do this because of both love and faith. We have seen it in two different contexts now. In Hebrews 3, the subject is faith—belief. In Hebrews 10, the subject is love. In both cases, exhortation within our fellowship can stir to increase either one of them or both of them.
He says that we have to confess our hope. Do you know what confess means? It means, "to make it known, to reveal"—make known our hope. Undoubtedly He means here the great hope that we have—the resurrection of the dead. But I do not believe that it is at all limited only to that hope. It is also extended to other hopes that we have of getting rid of burdens that we are carrying around.
Hebrews 10:22-23
Excerpted from: Love and FellowshipIt is His nature, brethren, to forgive. It is His nature to be merciful. It is His nature to open the way for us into the very presence of His Father. That is the very reason He died! Not to keep us away. Not to let us get wrapped up in our feelings. But to go to the place where there are answers, where there is help, where there is solution.
Hope in what? Hope in the things that God has promised. Is it not His nature to give? Is God not infallible? Does He not always come through in what He has promised? How can we possibly be in despair for very long when we check ourselves against what God says to do, and then take advantage of it and draw near in time of need?
