For the word of God is living and active, sharper than any two-edged sword, piercing to the division of soul and of spirit, of joints and of marrow, and discerning the thoughts and intentions of the heart.

and have tasted the goodness of the word of God and the powers of the age to come,

By faith we understand that the universe was created by the word of God, so that what is seen was not made out of things that are visible.

Remember your leaders, those who spoke to you the word of God. Consider the outcome of their way of life, and imitate their faith.
