This lesson this morning is to believers, not unbelievers. If any nonbelievers are listening, though, don't turn it off. Anyone who is not a Christian, listen to what you're going to miss if you don't accept Lord Jesus Christ into your heart as your savior.
Vs13: “exhort” means ‘to call along side of one another to help, strengthen, and encourage each other, daily.” Help make each other's burdens easier. Today, while the door of opportunity is still open, help each other before the door closes, unless any of us are hardened to the deceitfulness of sin. Sin hardens your heart. Vs14: “partakers” means “companions” of Christ if… notice these conditions: If we stay faithful until the end. This is not talking about our salvation; this is talking about how close you are to Christ, walking with Him. There are thee kinds of rest mentioned in scripture: 1) Rest based in salvation, 2) an eternal rest based on His finished work and has nothing to do with us whatsoever. It just has to do with us accepting His finished work and 3) rest based on works, by completely surrendering your life to Christ and letting Him work His will through your life. We have to work at this rest; we have to work at being a good Christian. Vs15: He's warning these Hebrew Christians to not be like their ancestors and harden their hearts through sin and not partake of the promises of God. Vs16: the Hebrews that came out of Egypt came out with a hard heart. It was an 11-day journey from Egypt
