Our sermon this morning is intended to increase your faith and hope. After the stiff warning in the early part of the chapter, a warning intended to help the Hebrews see how high the stakes are and how much spiritual experience you can have without actually being converted, the writer returns to his main mission—building the faith and hope in Jesus that his listeners need to have. I am following in his footsteps this morning. You certainly need to grow in your faith and hope. The way you do that is not by clenching your fists and saying "Believe harder!" Rather, it is by repeatedly witnessing God's faithfulness. As I've told you before, when your car has started the last four hundred times you tried it, you have perfect confidence that it will start the four hundred and first time. When you have witnessed God's faithfulness four hundred times, you will naturally have faith in it the four hundred and first time. So listen to this sermon, and believe it. The Hebrew writer wants you to know that because of God's character, His oath, His track record, you can and should have a sure and certain hope in His promises.
