Hebrews 3

 

Hebrews 3:1

Wherefore, holy brethren, partakers of a heavenly calling, consider the Apostle and High Priest of our confession, [even] Jesus;

Hebrews 3:2

who was faithful to him that appointed him, as also was Moses in all his house.

for we are become partakers of Christ, if we hold fast the beginning of our confidence firm unto the end:

Hebrews 3:15

while it is said, To-day if ye shall hear his voice, Harden not your hearts, as in the provocation.
