Topics: Destination, Goal, Motivation
Big Idea of the Message: Never lose sight of the destination: Jesus.
Application Point: Losing sight of your goal can make it harder to accomplish. What is the goal of your faith?
There are 3 groups of Christians addressed in the book of Hebrews:
1. Wavering: those who received Jesus as Savior but who are uninvolved & doing bare minimal in their commitment. The writer encourages them out the spiritual couch potato to press on! (Heb 10:23-24)
2. Group in Danger: 2nd & 3rd Gen Christians who have grown up in church. They can shoot off bible verses & say the right words, but never made their parents faith their own. Its possible to know a lot about the bible & just go through the motions of the Christian experience & still not have real Faith in Jesus. (Heb 10:26-29)
3. Those that are tired: People fully committed to Christ, but tired & discouraged. To them the book of Hebrews brings encouragement & refreshment. (Heb 10:35-36)
