~ Jesus Christ Is The Author of Our
Faith ~
Passage
~ “We also, since we are
surrounded by so great a cloud of witnesses, let us lay aside every weight, and
the sin which so easily ensnares us, and let us run with endurance the race
that is set before us, looking unto Jesus,
the author… of our faith, who for the joy that was set before Him endured
the cross, despising the shame, and has sat down at the right hand of the
throne of God” (Hebrews 12:1-2).
Significance
~ Salvation is God’s idea, not
man’s concept. It is the Word of God and
the Spirit of God which brings people to salvation. Jesus Christ was on earth as the living Word
of God dwelling among mankind.
Comment ~ Jesus Christ is still seeking men, women, boys, and girls who are ready to have a relationship with Him. “The Son of Man [Jesus Christ] has come to seek and to save that which was lost” (Luke 19:10).
the key question:
“Who do you say that I am?”
(Matthew 16:15). This is the most
important question you will ever answer. If you do not answer it, or answer it
incorrectly, you have made the biggest mistake anyone can make!
