Hebrews 13:1-6 Episode 40 - Ethical Implications of the New Covenant

July 01, 2019 | Andy Davis
Hebrews 13:1-6

The author brings his epistle to a close with a series of ethical commands to these persecuted Christians. The very fact alone shows that suffering persecution and other grievous trials does not free us from the Lord’s commands to live holy and upright lives in this present age. If anything, the persecution greatly heightens the need for purity and holiness because 1) we are being put on display before a watching and hostile world, and every little sin will be greatly magnified; 2) we have maximum need of the Lord’s closeness, tenderness, love and sustaining grace, so to offend him with noxious sins would be extremely unwise; 3) we have great need for healthy Christian fellowship, to lean on each other during this time of suffering, so to offend our brothers and sisters with noxious sins would again be extremely unwise.
