—Hebrews 13:10-16
by: Leota Stevens.
The writer of Hebrews shares a powerful message in these few short verses. The image of Christ is portrayed as a suffering savior who loved people so much he was willing to suffer death, humiliation and abandonment to secure their forgiveness and eternal life. This scripture delineates the life of a follower of Christ as proactive, generous and sacrificial. Passive Christianity is like waterless shampoo; it may make you shine for a while, but it doesn’t clean very well.
