THE BOOK OF HEBREWS CHAPTER 3:6-19 (7 of 24)
Harley Howard
6 But Christ as a son over his own house; whose house
are we, if we hold fast the confidence and the
rejoicing of the hope firm unto the end.
Moses was a servant of the household of God, but
Christ is Son over the house because it is His
possession. Christ is not in the house, He's over the
house. Moses didn't build or own the house, Christ did
both. The writer states that the house, the church,
belongs to Christ if we who profess to be in the
household of Christ demonstrate that loyalty by taking
a firm hold in our fearless confidence in Christ and
the glorying in the future hope to come, steadfast,
until the very end. These Jews needed to come to a
complete decision concerning Christ and His salvation,
no matter what the cost in this life, because the
greater loss would be to lose for all eternity.
There are many professing believers who, like these
wavering Jews, need to see the glory of following
Christ and doing it with complete confidence and to
see the ETERNAL DANGER OF REJECTING CHRIST AND HIS
SALVAION. It is not a light thing to PLAY CHRISTIAN.
Christianity is not something to trifle with. Only a
hard-hearted fool would walk away from Christ in his
or her stupid pride, living under the assumption that
you are a believer simply because you say that you are
one or because you can sit in a building called a
church, or partake in some liturgical service or eat a
wafer or drink some substance or sing a hymn or quote
scripture. You demonstrate that you are a believer by
having an unashamed confidence in following Christ and
in the future hope that is ours. Those are believers.
Everyone else is addressed in the next following
passages of scripture, that being, the hard of heart.

will hear his voice,”

Spirit is God as well be ...
