The Importance of Perseverance

The dominant theme that seems to serve as the thrust of the exhortation of Hebrews is the idea of perseverance. All throughout the homily, the author insists that Jesus knew what it meant to suffer. He was glorified in his suffering and he showed us how to suffer so God could also bring many sons to glory through our perseverance. It's one of my favorite passages of scripture. In fact, I do this lesson in Turkey, which is why I'm not going to talk about it here on the podcast. You have to come hear it in person because it's one ofMy top five favorite moments in all of my Israel and Turkey trips.
