Discuss Hebrews 12 Page 14

The great cloud of witnesses in 12:1 couldn't refer to the faith heroes of chapter 11 since vs 39 says they never saw their promise, or Christ, other than in shadow. I think it refers to the people in Christ's time who saw the resurrection as they did witness it.

once you get born again you recieves the kingdom which can not be shaken

verse 2 says "Looking unto Jesus the author and finisher of our faith who for the joy that was set before him endured the cross, despising the shame, and is set down at the right hand of the throne of God."the joy that was set before him made him endure the cross, He had a purpose, he loved doing what would bring his purpose to accomplishment despite the cost, dear friends let it not be in vain, be a beneficially of the blood shed on the cross. And in our daily lives, let us emulate Christ Jesus, loving the work we do despite the toil and cost, the bible says that and in everything we do we do it as for the Lord,it will be easy while done out of love,the grace of God will always be sufficient for us, God bless you.

God is longing to bless us and heal us. Jesus already restores our Soul and have forgiven our sins when Jesus redeemed us on the cross. But sometimes because of our disobedience we are chastened. When the storm comes into our life we dont know what to do if we dont have Christ in our life. Jesus is the only Savior, He who opens his door for him will be saved. We must show our obedience to his words in order for us to see the Glory of God as his mercy and love endureth forever. What a promising God and always faithful to his words. Thanks to Jesus and keep praising his blood as his precious blood washed our ungodly sins. Praise you Lord and thanks for your blood i will love you Jesus forever until rapture. Amen

Hebrews 12:2 KJV 'looking the act of directing the eyes to something and perceiving it visual ly. unto Jesus ...... ' is the blessedness of mourning.

V6 to me means that when we sin intentionally or unintentionally, God withdraws His grace from us for a season, so that we know we cannot do without Him. This leads to repentance and a renewed desire for His word, prayer and holy living that His holy name may once again be glorified in our lives. Woe to you whose sins go unpunished know it I not well with you. Later a recompense shall be made.

holiness is a lifestyle which differs dramatically from our mannerof life before we were saved.

The difference in the interpretations of "author and finisher " is interesting. I found this page because it dawned on me that the writer may have meant the author and finisher of our faith as in our "Faith, " meaning the Faith of Christianity, rather than the saving faith of the individual. I 'm not completely sure what weight this might hold, because truthfully both are equally as profound, nevertheless, they encompass two entirely different ideas as well as ideals. I 'm also not sure that it could threaten the doctrine of the security of the saints or the doctrine of election, but it is one passage that is used to strengthen the positions of both aforementioned doctrines, though obviously not the only passage. Just interesting.

there is need for more revelation of Gods word

Hebrew 12:14 is a verse, a weapon, a tool, an artillery, a secret but influential weapon, a shield around an obedient child of God....... most importantly a dose for long life and enabler to enjoy prosperity. Thanks

Lord Jesus had faith and we should follow His footsteps and run a good raise in order to win at the end.

It made me feel like if we can be obedient to man than certinely we can be obedient to our heavenly Father, for he is the one who created us and will save us from Sin and All that is not Righteous.

To realize the most important thing we can do in our life is to make our peace with God, to also realize that the answer is in our response. It is not too late.

Indeed,we christians should learn from the master Himself,not from our preacher of nowadays,who some are not even followers of Christ,though admires Him, but they have their own personal doctrines,doctrine of men,doctrine of church, which are mostly self centered.watch for their fruit,for by it you will determine if the three is good.And by their fruit you should know them.shalom!

Very beautiful!!! A blessing to me!!!! Amen!!

I agree with all three of the student 's that expressed their findings regarding Hebrews Chpt,12. It is an very powerful word obviously, as it is God 's word,but i do also believe that God is telling us as his follower 's to clean-up our act or hold fast as he does clean-up, and that or those which is not found steadfast in Him, will be shaken away, and those or that which is steadfastly in him will remain.

God Did Not Give Us The Spirit Of Fear

Hold fast to Christ with everlasting hope. Never trifle with all-knowing God because he is a consuming fire of fools. He is a loving and chastising father.

it 's great and powerful.

I belive if one is a jew he or she got the blood of juses Christ as I am now 74 I don 't see so well but one must help the jews for their are god children and may god bless us all

There is a whole lot of shaking going on. That which can be shaken shall be removed and that which can not be shaken shall remain. So be strong in the Lord and put on the whole armor of God so that you will be able to stand.

No more pain no more sorrow. It is finish.

What then is holiness? Holiness means setting yourself apart for the lord. It comes with self feniance and conscious effort to please God. One has to suppress the flesh in an attempt to pleasing God. May God help us to be holy for without holiness no man shall see God.

Wherefore since we are receiving a kingdom which cannot be moved, let us have grace so that we can serve God acceptably with reverance and godly fear. For our God is a consuming fire, and it is a fearful thing to fall into the hands of the living God. So give God all the glory for what He is doing in your life always.

Is The Lord saying if we sin after we are saved we cannot go to heaven

without holiness NO men shall see the LORD Heb 12 14

Verse 1 enspires me, to know that I am surrounded with a great cloud of witnesses gives me more strength to run this race. Laying aside all the weights,the fire fighters, and the sin that easily ensnares us. Powerful word, I undestand that to run this race I need to lay aside, to ignore certain things that might pull me back. I understand that I am in a race but most importantly that I am not alone, I am surrounded. Thank you Jesus

Many have ceased and left this world without having holiness.

He is our example...so we do what he did which is to look to what was at the end and not focus on the now....and look at what He got in the end? Sitting at the right hand of the almighty !!!!

I am wondering why verse 9 of Heb 12 is different from the KJV and the NKJV concerning "with His own blood He entered the Most Holy Place once for all in the NKJV and the KJV states "the holy place " not capitalized. these are serious differences doctrinal wise. One is weekly the other once a year.
