All of us stumble and fall to some temptation. All of us have moments of doubt or anxiety. How do we know if our faith is authentic, true and genuine? Can we know that we are truly saved? What is the evidence of a genuine faith? Join Pastor Jim as he explores the encouraging and hopeful answers to these questions and more from the first part of Hebrews 3.
“For the law was given through Moses; grace and truth came through Jesus Christ.”
John 1:17
“The proof of their belonging to the house of Christ was that they remained steadfast to Him to the end of their pilgrimage.”
A. W. Pink
“The question is not about a retention of salvation based upon a persistence of faith but of possession of faith as evidenced by a continuance of faith.”
Kenneth Wuest
“We live in an impatient society and the idea of humble submission, patient waiting and steady perseverance does not make a ready appeal. But the way of Christ was the way of persistent obedience.”
Raymond Brown, The Message of Hebrews
“Of course God does not consider you hopeless. If He did, He would not be moving you to seek Him (and He obviously is)… Continue seeking Him with seriousness. Unless He wanted you, you would not be wanting Him.”
C. S. Lewis, Letters of C. S. Lewis
