The Son Was Faithful
Therefore, holy brethren, partakers of the heavenly calling, consider the Apostle and High Priest of our confession, Christ Jesus,
-
who was faithful to Him who appointed Him, as Moses also was faithful in all His house.
-
And Moses indeed was faithful in all His house as a servant, for a testimony of those things which would be spoken afterward,
-
Be Faithful
Therefore, as the Holy Spirit says: “Today, if you will hear His voice,
-
For indeed the gospel was preached to us as well as to them; but the word which they heard did not profit them, not being mixed with faith in those who heard it.
-
The Peril of Not Progressing
Therefore, leaving the discussion of the elementary principles of Christ, let us go on to perfection, not laying again the foundation of repentance from dead works and of faith toward God,
-
that you do not become sluggish, but imitate those who through faith and patience inherit the promises.
-
let us draw near with a true heart in full assurance of faith, having our hearts sprinkled from an evil conscience and our bodies washed with pure water.
-
Let us hold fast the confession of our hope without wavering, for He who promised is faithful.

The Just Live by Faith
For if we sin willfully after we have received the knowledge of the truth, there no longer remains a sacrifice for sins,
-
Now the just shall live by faith; But if anyone draws back, My soul has no pleasure in him.”
-
By Faith We Understand
Now faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen.
-
By faith we understand that the worlds were framed by the word of God, so that the things which are seen were not made of things which are visible.

Faith at the Dawn of History
By faith Abel offered to God a more excellent sacrifice than Cain, through which he obtained witness that he was righteous, God testifying of his gifts; and through it he being dead still speaks.
-
By faith Enoch was taken away so that he did not see death, “and was not found, because God had taken him”; for before he was taken he had this testimony, that he pleased God.
-
But without faith it is impossible to please Him, for he who comes to God must believe that He is, and that He is a rewarder of those who diligently seek Him.
-
By faith Noah, being divinely warned of things not yet seen, moved with godly fear, prepared an ark for the saving of his household, by which he condemned the world and became heir of the righteousness which is according to faith.
-
Faithful Abraham
By faith Abraham obeyed when he was called to go out to the place which he would receive as an inheritance. And he went out, not knowing where he was going.
-
By faith he dwelt in the land of promise as in a foreign country, dwelling in tents with Isaac and Jacob, the heirs with him of the same promise;
-
By faith Sarah herself also received strength to conceive seed, and she bore a child when she was past the age, because she judged Him faithful who had promised.
-
The Heavenly Hope
These all died in faith, not having received the promises, but having seen them afar off were assured of them, embraced them and confessed that they were strangers and pilgrims on the earth.
-
The Faith of the Patriarchs
By faith Abraham, when he was tested, offered up Isaac, and he who had received the promises offered up his only begotten son,
-
By faith Isaac blessed Jacob and Esau concerning things to come.
-
By faith Jacob, when he was dying, blessed each of the sons of Joseph, and worshiped, leaning on the top of his staff.
