Hebrews 3:12

FaithDoubtRepentance

10 Therefore I was angry with that generation, and I said, ‘Their hearts are always going astray, and they have not known My ways.’

11 So I swore on oath in My anger, ‘They shall never enter My rest.’”

See to it, brothers, that none of you has a wicked heart of unbelief that turns away from the living God.

13 But exhort one another daily, as long as it is called today, so that none of you may be hardened by sin’s deceitfulness.

14 We have come to share in Christ if we hold firmly to the end the assurance we had at first.
