Why It is Necessary For Me To be Sure and Certain

 

·         So I Can be *[CONFIDENT]* Of My Reward.

/So do not throw away your confidence; it will be richly rewarded./*

Hebrews 10:35*

 

/13//I am still confident of this: I will see the goodness of the Lord in the land of the living.

14//Wait for the Lord; be strong and take heart and wait for the Lord.*

·         So I Can *[PERSERVERE IN DOING GOD’S WILL]* To Receive His Promises For my Life.

/You need to persevere so that when you have done the will of God, you will receive what he has promised./

*Hebrews 10:36*

 

/22Do not merely listen to the word, and so deceive yourselves.

Do what it says.

23Anyone who listens to the word but does not do what it says is like a man who looks at his face in a mirror 24and, after looking at himself, goes away and immediately forgets what he looks like.

25But the man who looks intently into the perfect law that gives freedom, and continues to do this, not forgetting what he has heard, but doing it—he will be blessed in what he does./

*James** 1:22-25*

 

 

 

·         So I Can [*LIVE BY FAITH]* To Please God.

 

/37//For in just a very little while, “He who is coming will come and will not delay.

38//But my righteous one will live by faith.

And if he shrinks back, I will not be pleased with him./”*

Hebrews 10:37-38*

 

/42//Yet at the same time many even among the leaders believed in him.

But because of the Pharisees they would not confess their faith for fear they would be put out of the synagogue; 43//for they loved praise from men more than praise from God. 44//Then Jesus cried out, “When a man believes in me, he does not believe in me only, but in the one who sent me.

45//When he looks at me, he sees the one who sent me./*

John 12:42-45*

 

 

 

·         So I Can Be *[REFINED]* For Eternal Salvation.

/39//But we are not of those who shrink back and are destroyed, but of those who believe and are saved./*

Hebrews 10:39*

 

/7//These have come so that your faith—of greater worth than gold, which perishes even though refined by fire—may be proved genuine and may result in praise, glory and honor when Jesus Christ is revealed.

8//Though you have not seen him, you love him; and even though you do not see him now, you believe in him and are filled with an inexpressible and glorious joy, 9//for you are receiving the goal of your faith, the salvation of your souls./* 1 Peter 1:7-9*
