Life application of Hebrews 6-7 – Audio
Salvation in Jesus Christ is the most precious gift anyone can hope to receive, and the Epistle to the Hebrews nails this home. In our continuation of a life application of the epistle, we touch on real issues pertaining to life in God. The word was written to those in danger of drifting away, or who have not entered God’s rest – words so dire Martin Luther had serious controversy with the value of Hebrews. “It need not surprise one to find here bits of wood, hay, and straw,” said Luther of Hebrews according to The Facts About Luther, 1916–1987 reprint ed., p. 203, O’HarePF.
