Holding On . . . But Letting Go – Be Steadfast In Hope And Waiting Series

Contributed by Ron Ferguson on Sep 14, 2022

We have a precious faith and we must hold on to it firmly. Commitment grasps that faith. Holding on to God's promises is essential. We look at the often misapplied verses of Hebrews 6 and who it was who actually let go. They are NOT Christians.
