Overcoming By The Word Of God!


‘Overcoming By The Word Of God.’
a)    Matthew 4:4; Deuteronomy 8:3. Man shall not live by bread alone, but by every Word that proceeds from the mouth of God.
b)    Matthew 4:7; Deuteronomy 6:16. You shall not tempt the Lord your God.
c)     Matthew 4:10; Deuteronomy 6:13. You shall Worship the Lord your God, and Him only shall you serve.
(Through this QT I want to be following the Lord Jesus: Overcoming By The Word Of The Lord)
------- 
It Is A Time For Better Things.’
Hebrews 6:1-12.
a)    Hebrews 6:1. It is time for most of us to leave the elementary Teaching about Jesus Christ.
b)    Hebrews 6:1. It is time to go on towards perfection and maturity
c)     Hebrews 6:1-2. Do not lay again the foundational Teaching about:-
1-   Repentance from dead works.
2-   Faith towards God.
3-   Doctrine of baptisms.
4-   Laying on of hands
5-   Resurrection of the dead.
6-   Eternal judgment.
d)    Hebrews 6:3. We will do this if God permits it.
e)    Hebrews 6:4-5. It is impossible for those people who have:-
1-   Been enlightened.
2-   Tasted the Heavenly Gift.
3-   Become partakers of the Holy Spirit.
4-   Tasted the good Word of God.
5-   Tasted the powers of the Age to come.
f)     Hebrews 6:6. It is impossible if they fall away to renew them again to repentance.
g)    Hebrews 6:6. They have crucified again for themselves the Son of God, and put Him to an open shame.
h)    Hebrews 6:7-8. The Earth that drinks in the rain that often comes upon it, and bears herbs useful for those by whom it is cultivated, receives Blessing from God; but if it bears thorns and briers, it is rejected and near to being cursed, whose end is to be burned.
i)      Hebrews 6:9. But, Beloved, we:-
1-   Are confident of better things concerning you.
2-   Are confident of things concerning Salvation.
3-   Are having to speak in the manner in which we spoke.
j)      Hebrews 6:10. God is not unjust to forget:-
1-   Your work.
2-   Your labour of Love which you have shown towards His Name.
3-   Your ministry that continues towards the True Believers.
k)    Hebrews 6:11-12. The writer’s desire for the Hebrew Church:-
1-   Was that each person in the Hebrew Church had the same diligence.
2-   Having the same full Assurance of Hope until the end.
3-   That they will not become sluggish.
4-   That will imitate those people who through Faith and Patience inherit the Promises of God.
(Through this Second one I thank God that It Is A Time For Better Things)

The writer to the Hebrews did not necessarily enjoy writing part of this passage. He said that he had to speak/write in this manner. There were obviously problems in the Hebrew Church that were making them stagnant and they needed to deal with the problems and move on in God.
