  • Heb 10:25-37 : 25 not giving up meeting together, as some are in the habit of doing, but encouraging one another—and all the more as you see the Day approaching. 26 For if we deliberately keep on sinning after we have received the knowledge of the truth, no sacrifice for sins is left, 27 but only a fearful expectation of judgment and of raging fire that will consume the enemies of God. 28 Anyone who rejected the law of Moses died without mercy on the testimony of two or three witnesses. 29 How much more severe punishment do you think someone deserves who has trampled the Son of God underfoot, treated as unholy the blood of the covenant that sanctified them, and insulted the Spirit of grace? 30 For we know Him who said, 'Vengeance is Mine; I will repay,' says the Lord. And again, 'The Lord will judge His people.' 31 It is a dreadful thing to fall into the hands of the living God. 32 Remember those earlier days after you had been enlightened, when you endured a hard struggle with suffering. 33 Sometimes you were publicly exposed to insults and persecution; at other times you stood side by side with those who were so treated. 34 For you sympathized with those in prison and accepted with joy the confiscation of your possessions, knowing that you have a better and lasting possession in heaven. 35 So do not throw away your confidence, which has a great reward. 36 You need endurance so that after you have done the will of God, you may receive what was promised. 37 For yet in a very little while, the One who is coming will come and will not delay.
