Hebrews 11:2
Excerpted from: Faith (Part Two)I mentioned in the sermon on the Holy Day that these men and women in Hebrews 11 were a mixed bag of strength and weakness, but there was one area that they were of towering strength—I mean examples held up for all of us to see—and that is the area of spiritual faith.
It was by faith that the elders—meaning those who lived in olden times, the ancients—received God's approval and made a good testimony. It means that because of faith they were enabled to become good witnesses. If you will think of this word "testimony" or "witness" and connect it with Hebrews 12:1 where this same apostle said that we are "surrounded by a great cloud of witnesses," meaning it is not that these people are watching us, but rather we are surrounded by people who witnessed in their lives that they had faith in God and we see them now in our mind's eye.
