Hebrews Chapter 4 Discussion Page 5

We ceased from our own works of trying to please god and earn his favor when we by faith trust christ .fully and continually we stop trying to earn our way to heaven

oh how precious and oh how sweet God is to us I love this verse for God shows his greatness to us I am so glad that I have a father that can be touch and he understands he knows our feeling he knows everything about us.

They heard the gospel preached as well but did not mix it with faith. So how do we mix the word with faith? Well lets look first at the children of Israel they heard caleb and joshua but they didn't mix faith with their report but instead they mixed faith with the evil report. How? They talked about the giants in the land instead of the report of faith that they were well able to take the land. Mix faith with God's word and say what God declared, We can do all things, My God shall supply all my needs according to his riches in glory.

Further proof from the scriptures that the Bible is relevant today. It is unlike any other book, that is the oldest, and has survived many attacks to extinguish it. Even today, when individuals read this book they are moved to make changes in their life, and dedicate themselves to God, and his will. Very powerful words are found in the Bible, and despite its age, it still has a powerful impact! Could we expect anything less from it 's author Jehovah God?

This is a reminder of sabbath keeping. God is specific in telling us to keep the seventh day, as day of rest just as he rested from his work. And that we should do the same. Verse 6, some done enter this rest, instead they work and on worldly labor because of unbelief. Verse 11, Emphasizing we have to labor to get that rest, like in verse 10 as God did. And don 't be like those who heard yet don "t believe. I thank God for the sabbath

I believe that the rest spoken in this text is a be still and know that I am God reference. Many are the affliction of the righteous but the Lord delivers,after the deliverance comes rest peace, this is a theme in the word. We are gentiles united by faith this makes us the people of God and entitled this rest after endurance as a good solider

I understand that from the creation of the world God desired that we would find rest in him. That he would be our God and we would be his people. What is man the God would be mindful of him. And even from the time of creation God has thought of man. He desired to give man rest in knowing him. His loving kindness endures from generation to generation. Some have not entered into his rest because they do not believe in the only begotten Son of God. But those who do enter into his rest cease from their own works. Jesus is the creator of all things and all things seen by him. Nothing that was made was made without him, All things were made by him. Jesus was ordained by God to be the mediator between God the Father and us. Jesus wants us to come boldly before his throne.

Indeed even John 1.1-3 states that The Word is God...., John 1.14 continues that the Word became flesh and we saw His glory.Also The Word of Christ must dwell richly among us.... Colossians 3.15 ,then 2 Timothy 3.16-18 talks of the Scriptures as inspired....

I was looking for verse 12, and boy did I need it down n my soul. Praise God!

it talks about the power of God in all situations, it 's adaptability, it 's power to detect, reveal and discern to the uttermost

The more I kept on meditating upon this verse HEB 4:12 the more I had a vivid solid and tangible experience. Consequently I felt life moving back and forth in the bones of my both arms and was literirally crashing my inner bone marrow of the arms. I then totally got healed from the terminal illness I had. This happened some 19 years ago when I was just coming to the lord.This brought full and total devine health to my life.

This scripture confirms that we can go boldly to God in prayer without being in fear of a just and merciful God. I am free! Through the blood of Jesus.

I really needed this verse today . It helped me to regain my hope. I 've been burdened down with my finances and The Lord came to me with this scripture. Praise The Lord Jesus Christ!

HEB 4:28... HEB 4:1... Let us therefore fear, lest, a promise being left us of entering into his rest, any of you should seem to come short of it....Why would this chapter start out, "Let us therefore fear ", The Holy Spirit is sending out a warning to those who has eyes to see, and ears to hear.... PRAISE OUR HEAVENLY FATHER ON HIS DAY OF REST. PRAISE OUR HOLY SAVIOR YESHUA! AMEN!!

HEB 4-28...This chapter 4, is not talking about the eternal promised rest of heaven, the Bible doesn 't even mention an eternal promised rest of Heaven. What it is talking about, is knowledge that it far from the inhabitants of this planet. because at first Satan hid it from you, but now it 's from willful ignorance, unbelief and disobedience. This chapter four is a very short chapter, but holds the key to eternal life, a mystery hidden in the writing, It is God 's sign to His promised people. Pray for understanding of it. If you love the Lord this you will do. This chapter is talking about the 7th day Sabbath of God. It is not the first day of the week Sunday, Satan has claimed this day for himself. That 's because he wants you blind to the true Sabbath, so you will perish along with him. AMEN!!

prays the lord.

It is importamt we,notwithstanding whom you may be to understand that Jesus Christ who knew no sin and had no sin was tempted by Satan. Also that Jesus Christ died and rose again. Seated at the right hand of God making intercession for we all that never died and rose and knows what sin is. And Jesus Christ said that it finished.That we all can now come boldly unto the throne of grace that He had made available for us to receive our blessing, repentance, forgiveness, healing etc. He said come without guilt.Notwithstanding how you are. So,what are you waiting for.

It is important for we, notwithstanding whom you maybe to understand that Jesus Christ who had no sin

Ceasing to persevere in faith and in obedience to Jesus results in the failure to reach the eternal promised rest of heaven . perseverance in faith requires that we continue to draw near to God through Christ with sincere determination.

Ronnie, Amen to all you wrote brother for it is Scripture, the Holy Ghost. But I believe like apostle Paul I am chief of sinners!

I am the worst sinner i know of. The Word of God has shown me myself. The desperate depravity of wickedness that prevents me from the glory of God 's goodness and His righteousness. The Word discerns every thought and intent, that, "every imagination of the thoughts of 'my 'heart are only evil continually. " And that, "i know that in me, that is, in my flesh, dwelleth no good thing. " And "when i would do good, evil is present with me. " The Word declares these things, not only of me myself and i, but of all mankind, born in the fallen image of Adam. And so those whom God has put His Spirit within the Witness of "the Word, which became flesh and dwelt among us, " and that Spirit is the Spirit of Christ, those blessed sinners, foreknown, predestined, called, justified, sanctified,and glorified,these possess the discernment of the Word, Christ Jesus. He who needed not that any man should tell Him anything. For He already knows what is in man.

The hearing of the word of God, we concieve in our spirit and the act of faith by doing acting the word, we give birth and that is the profiting is talked about.

I believe in this passage for his word is who he is and that is god and he see what is truly in the heart of a person we can fool him we say one thing but or heart tells him the truth and the heart is our soul and the real way to god our temple is our body we just have to be real in are faith which only god knows who we are .

Indeed, the 4th commandment is more than just a day to keep holy. Researching it Scripture by Scripture, I 've discovered it to be the "seal " of God whereby we not only acknowledge God the Father, God the Son and God the Holy Ghost but, also, a very real identifying characteristics of God 's people in the last days of this world.

As all GODS word has to be revealed through his spirit to ours for revelation, this one is no different. With the revelation that the six days of creation were actually ages than the seventh is an age also that we are still in. So let us enter into that rest by believing the works that CHRIST did on the cross for us and leave our labour of sinful works and do the labour of righteous works to the saving of our souls on that last day.

Throne Of Mercy.Grace is given abundantly in abundance.Freely, no bribes .

This Word is God,which is indwelling in me and at uttering,mountains are leveled,healing,roads opened,goliath defeated.This is my peace.

I 'll continue believing in GOD 's word, repeatedly throughout the bible is filled with passages that reflect GOD 's unchanging way 's because you can 't except them, or yet twist the words around to suit your unbelief, you 'll be left like the one 's in the wilderness who perished in there unbelief, GOD is the same yesterday today and tomorrow, but you knew that right, it is the 4th commandment, I didn 't put it there GOD did and the Messiah didn 't come to DESTROY but to fulfill where they were written on stone, he would write them on our Hearts, no longer being under the death sentence for breaking one, but wanting to keep all of the commandments because of our LOVE for our MESSIAH,GOD if you love me you 'll keep my commandments, does that sound familiar, it should those are our Messiah 's words you can brush it off nonchalantly, but you will not partake of the tree of life or enter into the Holy City unless your a commandment keeper, and if you break one you 've broken them all, so you might want to do some more studying on the subject, I would hate to see you missout because of a misconception. AMEN
