Our faith is best explained when we not only profess it in words but also demonstrate it through our actions. In this sermon, Alistair Begg highlights the exploits of several heroes of faith listed by the author of Hebrews. Their faith, developed mostly through intense and private struggles, brought them to moments of decision and commitment. They were strong not because they had great amounts faith but because the object of their faith was God.
20By faith mIsaac invoked future blessings on Jacob and Esau. 21By faith nJacob, when dying, blessed each of the sons of Joseph, obowing in worship over the head of his staff. 22By faith pJoseph, at the end of his life, made mention of the exodus of the Israelites and gave directions concerning his bones.
23By faith qMoses, when he was born, was hidden for three months by his parents, because they saw that the child was beautiful, and they were not afraid of rthe king's edict. 24By faith Moses, when he was grown up, srefused to be called the son of Pharaoh's daughter, 25tchoosing rather to be mistreated with the people of God than to enjoy uthe fleeting pleasures of sin. 26vHe considered the reproach of Christ greater wealth than the treasures of Egypt, for he was looking to wthe reward. 27By faith he xleft Egypt, ynot being afraid of the anger of the king, for he endured zas seeing him who is invisible. 28By faith ahe kept the Passover and sprinkled the blood, so that the Destroyer of the firstborn might not touch them.
29By faith bthe people crossed the Red Sea as on dry land, but the Egyptians, when they attempted to do the same, were drowned.
