This morning's sermon pointed out the tendency you and I experience on falling away like many; falling away from the belief of who Jesus is, amidst struggles and temptations around.
The Bible recorded that the Israelites fell away in rebellion and unbelief in God any more because they saw the people in the Promised Land were like giants. They wanted to go back to their comfort zone, to the land of Egypt.
So the experience is true not only for the believers whom the author of Hebrews wrote to, but also for us today. So how can we escape this great temptation and sin?
Hebrews 3:1 records fixing your thoughts on Jesus. Hebrews 12:2 records to fix our eyes on Jesus. Then choose to obey God despite the situation and circumstances. Join a community of believers so that the journey is easier as a cord of three stands is not easily broken.
