Scripture is full of calls to remember. The author of Hebrews, for instance, exhorts us to recall what we have endured in adversity and the ways God has used our trials to strengthen us. In light of God’s faithfulness, Alistair Begg explains that we must keep on; we are near to the end. Since we are able to enter the Holy Place by Jesus’ blood and have Him as our High Priest, let us not throw away our confidence!
32But recall the former days when, after ryou were enlightened, you endured sa hard struggle with sufferings, 33sometimes being tpublicly exposed to reproach and affliction, and sometimes being partners with those so treated. 34For uyou had compassion on those in prison, and vyou joyfully accepted the plundering of your property, since you knew that you yourselves had wa better possession and an abiding one. 35Therefore do not throw away your confidence, which has xa great reward. 36For yyou have need of endurance, so that zwhen you have done the will of God you may areceive what is promised. 37For,
b“Yet a little while,
and cthe coming one will come and will not delay;
38dbut my righteous one shall live by faith,
and if he shrinks back,
my soul has no pleasure in him.”
39But we are not of those who shrink back and are destroyed, but of those who have faith and preserve their souls.
