Top Highlights

“Those who ‘fall away’ are metaphorically ‘crucifying the Son of God to their own harm and holding him up to contempt’ (4:6). They are making a mockery of Him like those who physically crucified Him. They know the truth and yet have turned away—so they are in league with the forces working against God. You are on God’s team or playing for the enemy.” (Page 75)

“You have not yet resisted to the point of shedding your blood as you struggle against sin” (Page 139)

“Our relationship with a God who is opposed to destruction, chaos and sin will always involve us opposing the same things” (Page 151)

“However, the new covenant no longer relies on the people, now that God is the guarantor” (Page 104)

“We will learn what faith is, how to have it, and where to place it.” (Page 119)
