    To get through your groaning, focus on the glory to come.

    Contributed by Ron Ferguson on Sep 14, 2022
     | 2,765 views

    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.

BUT LETTING GO – BE STEADFAST IN HOPE AND WAITING The subject here may seem like an apparent contradiction (an oxymoron); something we hold on to but let go of it.

I would have thought that everyone would have their hand up because everyone works. Children have schoolwork, and homework. Almost everyone has ...read more

    The fifth commandment is the probably the most important to observe. Because this commandment focuses on the family unit.
