This week, Pastor Jermaine introduced our series on Hebrews 11, a series on faith.
We believe that the author of Hebrews is writing to Jewish converts who are enduring hardship. Many of the Christian believers were walking away, while others were being imprisoned for their faith.
The author wrote the letter to encourage the church, asking them to consider the cost of radical devotion. He urged the readers to choose the dangerous direction of devout discipleship.
Hebrews 11 tell us that faith is the confidence in what we hope for. It gives substance to our hopes and is a deep and sincere belief in the unseen, and what is to come.
What we see from the story of Cain and Abel in this passage is that righteous living precedes and is more valuable than righteous giving. Abel’s sacrifice was acceptable to God because it flowed from a generous and obedient heart. It is not the quantity or the quality of the offering, but the condition of the heart from which it comes.
Pastor Jermaine challenged us to ask and answer the question: does what is In your hand match what is in your heart?
