Stay Close to Jesus in Everything
Listen to the Hebrews daily devotional below!
Begin with prayer
Dr. McGee said, “We are living in the day of the ministry of the Holy Spirit, the day of grace, when the Spirit of God takes the things of Christ and reveals them to us.” Before you start each lesson, ask the Lord to use it to grow you up in grace and in the knowledge of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ as He is revealed in that section. Dr. McGee said, “This is the secret of life and of Christian living.”
Questions
1. Why do you think returning to Judaism would have been tempting for the Jewish Christians who were the original audience of Hebrews?
2. What do you think are some signs of spiritual maturity in the life of a Christian?
3. This particular warning in Hebrews is very strong. What should that tell us about God’s expectations of us regarding a level of commitment and seriousness about our faith?
4. What things has God given us that can help prevent us from falling away from the faith?
5. Again and again, we see in Hebrews that mature believers are those who are faithful. Who is there in your life that is an example of faithfulness you can follow?
6. Life can leave us feeling like we are alone. How can the truth that Jesus is our refuge change our minds in those times?
7. If the writer of Hebrews were writing today, what word pictures might they have used to illustrate what it means to fall away from the faith?

Sometimes, “running the race” of faith leaves us tired, out of breath, and discouraged. The book of Hebrews is an infusion of faith for the weary. Its message calls us back to the truth and gives us the strength to keep going. In these 17 lessons, Dr. J. Vernon McGee reminds us Jesus is better than any other road.
