Heb. 5:11-6:20 contain some of the most difficult passages of Scripture. The author issues an indictment as well as a warning about the dangers of immaturity in the faith.Par Lisa Spence

In Heb. 4:14-5:10, the author of Hebrews returns to the theme of Jesus as our great high priest. He contrasts the priesthood of Christ with that of the OT sacrificial system and encourages his readers to draw near to throne of grace.Par Lisa Spence

In Heb. 4:1-13, the author continues his exhortation he began in chapter 3 about the danger of hardening your heart in disbelief. The consequence? Failure to enter the rest of God. We will finish up our lesson discussing the living and active Word of God--such an appropriate text the Tuesday before Reformation Day!…

Today's lesson from Heb. 3:7-19 warns of hard heartedness, using the example of the Israelites in the wilderness as a sober reminder of hard hearts leading to rebellion and disobedience. The author warns his readers to take care and to exhort one another daily as we hold fast to our original confession.…

In Heb. 3:1-6, the author commands his readers to "consider Jesus." In order to demonstrate the faithfulness of Jesus and the worthiness of Jesus to receive more glory, he contrasts Jesus and Moses, showing once again the superiority of Christ.Par Lisa Spence

In Heb. 2:10-18, the author emphasizes Jesus' Incarnation, asserting that as One who is flesh and blood just like we are, He is therefore the perfect High Priest. As our High Priest, He is able to help because He knows and understands our struggles.Par Lisa Spence

Today's lesson covers Heb. 2:1-9, the first of several warnings in the book regarding the danger of falling away from the faith. Once again the author will turn our attention to the superiority of Jesus and the great salvation He offers.Par Lisa Spence

In 1:4-15, the author of Hebrews contrasts Jesus with angels, using Old Testament texts to demonstrate that Jesus is superior. While we aren't necessarily tempted to worship angels over Jesus, we will find it helpful and encouraging to fix our eyes on Jesus, the one true Son, the only One worthy of worship, the eternal, unchanging King of Kings.…

We begin our study of Hebrews by looking at the who, what, when, where, why of the book. We also discuss the supremacy of Jesus in 1:1-4.Par Lisa Spence

We close out our study of Acts by discussing the final chapter, Acts 28. In this chapter, Paul finally reaches Rome and as is his usual practice, engages the Jewish leaders by proclaiming and proving that Jesus is the Christ. The book ends rather abruptly, a reminder for us that the mission goes on.Par Lisa Spence

Acts 27 contains one of the most exciting episodes in the book of Acts. This chapter highlights God's power and provision as well as His faithfulness to keep His promises.Par Lisa Spence
