Details of our sacrifice


Following on from the “sacrifice of Jesus Christ” last week, we delved into Hebrews 13 to enjoy some of the details of our sacrifice. Truly our sacrifice is light and easy compared to that of our saviour Jesus Christ.

We are children of light and love, and the First verse of Hebrews exhorts us to be loving, brotherly loving, (like in Romans 12:10).
Subsequent verses guide us into the “ways and means”of our sacrifice namely…
Entertaining strangers, - V2
Mindful of those in bonds (prisoners, lawful or otherwise) - V3
Honourable in marriage, - V4
Having Godly contentment, -V5
Respectful of Godly leadership knowing that our reward will be great, - V 7
Established in the Word, - V9
Mindful of our new home; paradise restored, -V14
and offering the sacrifice of praise to God; the fruit of our lips, - V15
Doing good and fellowshipping, -V16
Obedient to Godly leadership, -V17
Praying for others, -V18

Love never fails.
