—Hebrews 6:13-20
by: Victoria Shephard.
God gave us “two unchangeable things” (v. 18, ESV)—a promise and an oath. Because of these two things, the author encouraged us to “hold fast to the hope set before us” (v. 18, ESV). God will fulfill His desires, so we should never give up hope. Elsewhere, we are told that “hope does not put us to shame, because God’s love has been poured into our hearts through the Holy Spirit who has been given to us” (Romans 5:5, ESV). We can be sure that our hope in God will never be disappointed.
