A Warning - Part 2 (Hebrews 2:1-4)
Bob Schultz, September 20, 2015Part of the Book of Hebrews series, preached at a Sunday Morning service
This week we continue our study in Hebrews by looking at 2:1-4. The main point of the paragraph is a warning to those in the church who have heard the truth but have not responded to the truth.
The writer gives his readers three reasons why they must respond to the gospel and believe in the person and work of Christ - first, the reality of who Christ is; second, the reality of judgment; and third, the reality that all of this was validated by divine means.
Hebrews 2:1–4 (Listen)
2:1 Therefore we must pay much closer attention to what we have heard, lest we drift away from it. 2 For since the message declared by angels proved to be reliable, and every transgression or disobedience received a just retribution, 3 how shall we escape if we neglect such a great salvation? It was declared at first by the Lord, and it was attested to us by those who heard, 4 while God also bore witness by signs and wonders and various miracles and by gifts of the Holy Spirit distributed according to his will.
