V. Quotes:
  • R. Kent Hughes  - “the writer of Hebrews was writing to admonish and encourage his friends (a small group of Jewish Christians) who were scared stiff!     Some had begun to avoid contact with outsiders. Some had even withdrawn from the worshipping community altogether (10:25). The author feared there might be those who, if arrested, would succumb to     the conditions of release – a public     denial of Christ (6:6; 10:29) … the letter arrived, and word was sent out. The congregation gathered. Perhaps no more than 15 or 20 were     seated or standing around the house. All were quiet. The reader began …“in the past God spoke to our forefathers through the prophets at many times and in various ways,     but in the last days he has spoken to us by His Son”’
  • John MacArthur writes, ‘we cannot, by ourselves, understand God any more than an insect we may hold in our hand can understand us. Nor can we condescend to its level, or communicate with it if we could.     But God can condescend to our level and He can communicate with us. And He has.’
  • John MacArthur - ‘the Holy Spirit establishes the divine authorship of the Old Testament, its accuracy and its authority, through the fact that it was given to and delivered by God’s prophets.’
