Hebrews - Chapter 4

Navigate by Book & Chapter

Go

12 What God has said isn’t only alive and active! It is sharper than any double-edged sword. His word can cut through our spirits and souls and through our joints and marrow, until it discovers the desires and thoughts of our hearts.

13 Nothing is hidden from God! He sees through everything, and we will have to tell him the truth.

14 We have a great high priest, who has gone into heaven, and he is Jesus the Son of God. That is why we must hold on to what we have said about him.

15 Jesus understands every weakness of ours, because he was tempted in every way that we are. But he did not sin!

16 So whenever we are in need, we should come bravely before the throne of our merciful God. There we will be treated with undeserved kindness, and we will find help.
