by Pastor Chew Weng Chee 1 Corinthians as well as Hebrews 6 Hebrews 6:13 When God made his promise to Abraham, since there was no one greater for him to swear by, he swore by himself, 14 saying, “I will surely bless you and give you many descendants.” 15 And so after waiting patiently, Abraham received what was promised. 16 Men swear by someone greater than themselves, and the oath confirms what is said and puts an end to all argument. 17 Because God wanted to make the unchanging nature of his purpose very clear to the heirs of what was promised, he confirmed it with an oath....

Think before every action, what I do next will...

Summarizes chapter 2. When Jesus saved us…. He redeemed our personal dignity! He restores our eternal destiny! Do not harden your hearts Fix = katano = think carefully “to focus and contemplate until you fully internalize it” “today”! If u hear the voice of the Spirit, do not harden your heart!
