Don’t be hardened by the deceitfulness of sin

HEBREWS 3:7-19 – A WARNING FROM THE PAST Who were they that heard yet were
rebellious? All those who left Egypt under Moses’
leadership With whom was He provoked for 40 years?
Those who sinned, whose bodies fell in the wilderness
To whom did He swear that they should never enter His rest? Those who were disobedient
CONCLUSION: They were unable to enter because of unbelief

HEBREWS 4:11-13 – THE WORD OF GOD Strive – zeal and exertion The Word of God cuts through one’s
most inner self Judges the thoughts and intentions
(attitudes) of the heart God is all-knowing and sees everything
Nothing can or will be hidden We must give an account Either we will go on (6:1), or we will fall
away (3:12)
