God calls us to persevere in faithfulness. We are to remember His faithfulness as we pursue faithfulness to Him and the holiness He has called us to. Among the tools He gives us to help in our perseverance we find the warnings and encouragements of the Scriptures.

The author of Hebrews warns against apostasy. We must always keep the authors words and context in mind as we read these warnings, otherwise the true Christian can get discouraged with their struggle with sin. The author warns against compromising or rejecting the Truth of the Gospel; he warns against trampling under foot the Son of God; he warns against treating the blood of the covenant as something less than holy; and he warns against insulting the Holy Spirit. Rejection of the Gospel is rejection of the Holy and Three-in-One God.

Then the author encourages his audience to remember their past faithfulness and God's promises for a glorious future.

All of this is given to strengthen the child of God to persevere until Jesus returns.
