Hebrews 13:1
Notes
Verses
{“Keep on loving each other as brothers and sisters.” Hebrews 13:1 NLT}{“Dear friends, since God loved us that much, we surely ought to love each other. No one has ever seen God. But if we love each other, God lives in us, and his love is brought to full expression in us.” 1 John 4:11-12 NLT}{"Don’t forget to show hospitality to strangers, for some who have done this have entertained angels without realizing it!" Hebrews 13:2 NLT}{“Remember those in prison, as if you were there yourself. Remember also those being mistreated, as if you felt their pain in your own bodies.” Hebrews 13:3 NLT}{“When three of Job’s friends heard of the tragedy he had suffered, they got together and traveled from their homes to comfort and console him… Then they sat on the ground with him for seven days and nights. No one said a word to Job, for they saw that his suffering was too great for words.” Job 2:11, 13 NLT}{“Give honor to marriage, and remain faithful to one another in marriage. God will surely judge people who are immoral and those who commit adultery.” Hebrews 13:4 NLT}{“Don’t love money; be satisfied with what you have.” For God has said, “I will never fail you. I will never abandon you.” Hebrews 13:5 NLT}{“No one can serve two masters. For you will hate one and love the other; you will be devoted to one and despise the other. You cannot serve both God and money.” Matthew 6:24 NLT}{“Jesus Christ is the same yesterday, today, and forever.” Hebrews 13:8 NLT}
Quotes
Tullian Tchividjian : “Followers of Jesus have been given a new heart and mind, a new way, a new destiny. This is why we’re to operate according to a different standard, with different goals and motivations and an altogether different perspective on money, lifestyle, and relationships. Our thoughts, our affections, our behavior, our priorities and pursuits and passions – all are to be different.” (Unfashionable ); Mark Driscoll : “Transformed lives of people in the church are both the greatest argument for, and the greatest explanation of, the gospel.” (The Radical Reformission); Milton Vincent : “When my mind is fixed on the gospel, I have ample stimulation to show God’s love to other people. For I am always willing to show love to others when I am freshly mindful of the love that God has shown me.” (The Gospel Primer); Joe Thorn : “God commands you to be hospitable because He Himself is a welcomer of strangers. Jesus is one who ate with sinners and welcomed the lost into his own life, and he calls you to follow him in his example of hospitality.” (Note To Self); Dr. Peter Kreeft : “If your friend is sick and dying, the most important thing he wants is not an explanation; he wants you to sit with him. He’s terrified of being alone more than anything else. God has not left us alone, and for that, I love Him.” (Making Sense Out Of Suffering); Paul David Tripp : “Neither sex nor money can deliver the promises that we think they’re making, and each area is more dangerous than we tend to think. Both have the perverse power to master your heart and in so doing determine the direction of your life. Both offer you an inner sense of well-being while having no capacity whatsoever to satisfy your heart. Both seduce you with the prospect of contentment-producing pleasure, but both leave you empty and craving more.” (Sex & Money); Justin Buzzard : “God invented this. God created a man. Then God created a woman. Then God “brought her to the man” and, with one look at the woman, the man fell in love. It was God’s brilliant idea to create man, to create woman, and join them in marriage – this unique union that begins with a look and quickly escalates into shouts of joy, nakedness, uninhibited freedom, and closeness so mysterious is described as becoming ‘one flesh.’” (Date Your Wife); Timothy Keller : “I cannot recall anyone ever coming to me and saying “I spend too much money on myself. I think my love of money is harming my family, my soul, and people around me.” Greed hides itself from the victim.” (Counterfeit Gods); Thomas Chalmers : “The only way to dispossess the heart of an old affection is through the expulsive power of a new one.&rdquo
