Hebrews 10:24-39 - Encourage Each Other
24 and let us recognize one another in the provocation of divine love and good works: 25 not forsaking the assembling of ourselves together as is the custom to some; but exhorting: and this the more, as you see the days drawing nigh.
26 For we sinning willingly after we have received the perfect knowledge of the truth, there is left no more sacrifice for sins, 27 but a certain fearful anticipation of judgment and violence of fire, about to devour the adversaries. 28 The one having rejected the law of Moses dies without mercy before two or three witnesses: 29 of how much more terrible punishment, do you think, the one having trodden under foot the Son of God, and counted the blood of the covenant, by which he was sanctified, common, and insulted the Spirit of grace; be counted worthy! 30 For we know him who said, Vengeance belongs to me, I will repay; and again, The Lord will judge his people. 31 It is a fearful thing to fall into the hands of the living God.
32 But remember the former days, in which, you being illuminated by the Spirit, endured a great fight of afflictions; 33 both indeed in reproaches and tribulations being exposed as a theater, and having become the companions of those being thus exercised. 34 For you suffered along with the prisoners, and received with joy the spoliation of your goods, knowing that you have a better and abiding possession. 35 Therefore cast not away your confidence, which has great reward. 36 For you have need of patience, in order that, having done the will of God, you will inherit the promise.
37 For yet a little while, the one coming will come, and will not tarry. 38 My righteous man shall live by faith: and if he may draw back, my soul has no pleasure in him.
39 But we are not of the drawing back unto perdition; but of faith unto the salvation of the soul.
