Hebrews 10:36

Compare all

34 for you had compassion on¹ me ^ain my chains, and ^bjoyfully accepted the plundering of your² goods, knowing that ^cyou have a better and an enduring possession for yourselves³ in heaven.

35 Therefore do not cast away your confidence, ^awhich has great reward.

36 ^aFor you have need of endurance, so that after you have done the will of God, ^byou may receive the promise:

37 “For ^ayet a little while,
And ^bHe who is coming will come and will not² tarry.

38 Now ^athe just shall live by faith;
But if anyone draws back,
My soul has no pleasure in him.”

39 But we are not of those ^awho draw back to perdition, but of those who ^bbelieve to the saving of the soul.

Hebrews 10:36

Ye have need of patience - Having so great a fight of sufferings to pass through, and they of so long continuance. God furnishes the grace; you must exercise it. The grace or principle of patience comes from God; the use and exercise of that grace is of yourselves. Here ye must be workers together with God. Patience and perseverance are nearly the same.

Have done the will of God - By keeping the faith, and patiently suffering for it.
